Project Overview

Narrative description of pretreatment project

Project Location: Roseville, MN
Year Constructed:
Type of Pretreatment Practice: Proprietary settling device
Specific Practice: The Preserver
Practice Owner:
Practice Designer:

Design Considerations

Design Cost:
Design Year:

The total contributing drainage area to the Preserver was 242 acres, with 8 acres of direct drainage area. An estimated 30% of the direct drainage area to the Preserver was impervious (2.4 acres). The land use of the contributing drainage area was residential, with a mature tree canopy.

Total Contributing Drainage Area (acres): 242
Total Impervious Area (acres): ~30%

Maintenance Frequency:
Maintenance Cost:
Disposal Cost:

The mature tree canopy in the contributing drainage area contributed to heavy organic loads, including large debris. The total captured material would likely be greater with more frequent cleaning of the system - the sump was full approximately halfway through the monitoring period.

Discussion of any additional maintenance considerations

Results

Discussion of how the performance was measured or estimated

Measured or Estimated Pollutant Removal Performance: 2,768 lbs of material captured by the pretreatment device, including:
  • 0.526 lbs phosphorus
  • Significant heavy metals

For proprietary practices, did were the manufacturer claims met?
