  • Chapter 1 Frequently Asked Questions
    SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT MANUAL SEPTEMBER 22, 2008 EDITION Chapter 1 Frequently Asked Questions 1.1 Applicability The implementation of BMPs applies to all businesses, residences and public agencies in Tacoma. 1.2 Pollutants of Concern The City is required to show progress in eliminating virtually all non-stormwater discharges to the storm drainage system. Only uncontaminated stormwater may be discharged to the City of Tacoma storm drainage system. Illicit discharges, intentional or unintentional, are not allowed and polluters may be subject to state and federal penalties. It is the property owner’s responsibility to keep pollutants from leaving a property and entering the City storm drainage system. Pollutants can be placed into several broad categories, as listed below. 1.2.1 pH The pH value of a substance is a relative measure of whether it is acidic or basic. Most aquatic species can only survive in neutral conditions. Sources that can contribute to a change in pH of stormwater and waterbodies include cement in concrete pouring, paving, and recycling operations; solutions from metal plating; chemicals from printing businesses and other industrial processes; and household cleaners such as bleaches and deck washes. 1.2.2 Total Suspended Solids This represents particulate solids such as eroded soil, heavy metal precipitates, and biological solids which can cause sedimentation in streams and turbidity in receiving surface waters. Sediments can destroy the desired habitat for fish and can impact drinking water supplies. Sediment may be carried to streams, lakes, or Puget Sound where they may be toxic to aquatic life and destroy habitat. 1.2.3 Oils and Greases Oils and greases can be either petroleum-based or food-related sources.

As a consequence of the growing human population, road surfaceshave become an inescapable feature in nearly every natural landscape, with 73% of all lands in the United States lying within 800 m of a road (Riitters and Wickham 2003). From an anthropocentric point of view, roadways have been described as "the arteries of life" in reference to their contributions to the transport of citizens and goods on an intercontinental scale (FHWA 2001). In addition to these familiar services, a road network's beneficial effects include some aspects of landscape ecology. For example, a road's presence reduces the frequency of off-road practices that alter multiple habitats within an ecosystem (Forman 2000).

  • Pothole Neglect
    POTHOLE NEGLECT Recently two decisions were rendered by the Court of Claims and the Tenth District Court of Appeals which clarify the law concerning the duty of the State of Ohio and municipalities to repair potholes. The purpose of this article is to address the pertinent facts and law in each including any distinctions between state and political subdivision liability. I. STATE ROADS In Dennis C. Miller v. Ohio Dept. of Transportation, Ct. of Cl. No. 2009-07679, 2012- Ohio-6324, the issues of liability and damages were bifurcated and the case proceeded to trial on the issue of liability in 2012. Jamie Lebovitz and Ellen McCarthy of Nurenberg Paris represented the plaintiff. The case arose out of a motor vehicle collision that occurred on March 11, 2008 on State Route 165 in Columbiana County, Ohio. A series of large potholes existed in the southbound lane. A truck driver proceeding lawfully southbound on SR 165 struck a pothole which caused him to lose control of his truck, cross the center line and strike the Miller vehicle thereby killing Pauline Miller. Her estate claimed that ODOT was negligent in failing to repair the potholes prior to the collision and that such failure was a proximate cause of Miller’s death. The state highway patrol investigated the accident, took measurements of the potholes located on the right side of the truck driver’s lane of travel and noted in the official report: “Pavement in poor condition due to large potholes at the scene. Large pothole measured and found to be 5” in depth with the width of 24” into the southbound lane.

  • Safety Points and Road Rules Whether You're Headed out for a 30
    Safety Points and Road Rules Whether you’re headed out for a 30 mile ride or just to the corner store, as a cyclist you have the same responsibilities on the road as any other vehicle. Follow these tips for safe cycling no matter where you ride. Always check your bike for mechanical problems before riding, including your tires, brakes, chains and quick release levers. Always wear a helmet. Check helmet chin strap to be sure your helmet is secure, as a loose helmet will not protect your head. Wearing gloves is also a good idea. If you have a mechanical problem while riding or need to get off your bike, call it out while slowing and stopping. It is important to get off of the road to avoid interfering with cars and other cyclists. Obey the traffic laws. Ride on the right side of the road. You do not have to ride in the gutter, but be as far to the right as is safe. Stop at all stop signs and red lights. Do not ride more than two abreast as this is against Texas law. Never cross the yellow line into oncoming traffic. Do not pass vehicles on the left. Ride in the left hand side of right turn lanes if you are going straight. For more information on Texas Bike laws, see www.biketexas.org/es/infrastructure/texas-bicycle-laws. Be visible. Wear bright clothing and use reflectors and use appropriate front and rear lights if riding during night time hours. Use your ears. Make sure you can hear cars and other cyclists.

  • The Dilemmas of Bicycle Planning
    The Dilemmas of Bicycle Planning The Dilemmas of Bicycle Planning Paul Schimek Massachusetts Institute of Technology Department of Urban Studies and Planning and U.S. Department of Transportation Volpe National Transportation Systems Center 55 Broadway, DTS-49 Cambridge, MA 02142 USA [email protected] Revised: March 2, 1999 An earlier version of this paper was presented at the Association of Collegiate Schools of Planning (ACSP) and Association of European Schools of Planning (AESOP) Joint International Congress, July 27, 1996 in Toronto, Canada. Abstract Since the 1970s, the bicycle has been a motherhood issue for U.S. transportation planning. At least in the abstract, everyone is in favor of increased use of these non-polluting, energy-efficient, quiet, and fitness- promoting vehicles. However, when one begins to investigate the use of bicycles for transportation, one finds that there are a number of dilemmas facing bicyclists and the bicycle planner. The first dilemma is that the public has many misconceptions about bicycling, including the skills required, which places are safe for riding, and the rights of bicyclists to use public roads. Second, professionals have often ignored bicycling, failing to consider bicyclists in roadway design or traffic enforcement. Third, the locations where bicycling is the most useful for transportation are also some of the most challenging, especially for the beginner. Fourth, the bicycle is not generally a "design vehicle," so roads are not routinely designed with bicyclists in mind. Fifth, transportation funding emphasizes capital spending over maintenance, although the latter is often more important to cyclists. Sixth, traffic enforcement officials in many localities routinely ignore even the most flagrant and dangerous violations by bicyclists.
