Establishing Flow Goals for Urban Stream Tmdls, and Implications for LID Design Standards Establishing Flow Goals for Urban Stream TMDLs, and Implications for LID Design Standards Michael Dietz & John Clausen Low Impact Development Symposium Philadelphia, PA September 25‐28, 2011 Background • Common assumption that urbanization increases discharge • Impervious Cover model assumes impact increases with IC • Schueler says only applies to basins 5‐50 km2 • Schueler also notes IC/hydrology relationship inconclusive Schueler, T., McNeal, L.F., and K. Cappiella. 2009. Is impervious cover still important? Review of recent research. Journal of Hydrologic Engineering. Vol. 14(4), pp. 309‐315. Background • Size LID features to capture 1 inch rainfall event, catch 90% of events, allow large events to pass – aka “Water Quality Volume” Groton, CT Common generalization of urbanization effects What is “normal” runoff? • Mostly forested basins in northern VT – Runoff = 50% of precipitation (20 year period of record) • East Branch Penobscot in northern ME – Runoff = 57% of precipitation (1902‐2006) • Mt. Hope River in northeast CT (USGS index station) – Runoff = 48% of precipitation (1940‐2006) Objective • Determine the long‐term rainfall/runoff relationship for Connecticut basins • Determine what effect IC has on the runoff coefficient Study basins Methods • Choose USGS stations in state – More than 20 years of record • Gather data – Get long‐term runoff from annual reports – Delineate basin for each station (StreamStats) Methods • Obtain long‐term precipitation for basin – Closest NCDC station • Determine percent IC in each basin – NLCD 2006 • Calculate runoff coefficient (runoff/precip) Basin characteristics USGS Basin Period of Average Runoff Basin Name # Record Size (km2) runoff (mm) coefficient % Impervious Broad Brook 01184490 1961-2006 40.1 560.3 0.48 3.7 Coginchaug River 01192883 1981-2006 77.2 722.6 0.54 2.5 Eightmile River East Branch 01194500 1938-2006 57.8 704.3 0.52 0.4 Hockanum River 01192500 1920-2006 190.1 559.1 0.48 14.4 Indian River 01195100 1982-2006 14.7 596.4 0.44 1.6 Mill River 01196620 1969-2006 63.5 697.0 0.52 8.4 Mt.
