Each stormwater treatment system shall include a circular chamber with a tangential inlet to induce a swirling flow pattern that will accumulate and store settled solids in a manner and a location that will prevent re-suspension of previously captured particulates. Each stormwater treatment system shall be of a hydraulic design that includes flow controls designed and certified by a professional engineer using accepted principles of fluid mechanics that raise the water surface inside the tank to a pre-determined level in order to prevent the re-entrainment of trapped floating contaminants. Each stormwater treatment system shall be capable of removing 80% of the net annual Total Suspended Solids (TSS) load based on a particle size gradation as defined in Table 2.2. Particle Size Gradation Percent of Sample Particle Size Range 1% > 150 micron 56% 100 – 150 micron 40% 75 – 100 micron 3% 50 - 75 micron Table 2.2 Annual TSS removal efficiency models shall be based on laboratory performance data, site-specific hydraulics and hydrology, and local rainfall intensity distributions. Individual stormwater treatment systems shall have the Design Treatment Capacity listed in Table 2.1, and shall not re-suspend trapped sediments or re-entrain floating contaminants at flow rates up to and including the specified Design Treatment Capacity. Individual stormwater treatment systems shall have usable sediment storage capacity of not less than the corresponding volume listed in Table 2.1. The systems shall be designed to not allow surcharge of the upstream piping network during dry weather conditions. Direct access shall be provided to the sediment and floatable contaminant storage chambers to facilitate maintenance. There shall be no appurtenances or restrictions within these chambers. Stormwater treatment systems shall be completely housed within one circular structure. 2.3 MANUFACTURER The manufacturer of said system shall have been regularly engaged in the engineering design and production of systems for the physical treatment of stormwater runoff for 15 years.

Each stormwater treatment system shall be constructed according to the sizes shown on the Drawings and as specified herein. Install at elevations and locations shown on the Drawings or as otherwise directed by the Engineer. B. Place the precast base unit on a granular subbase of minimum thickness of six inches (152 mm) after compaction or of greater thickness and compaction if specified elsewhere. The granular subbase shall be checked for level prior to setting and the precast base section of the trap shall be checked for level at all four corners after it is set. If the slope from any corner to any other corner exceeds 0.5% the base section shall be removed and the granular subbase material re-leveled. C. Prior to setting subsequent sections place bitumen sealant in conformance with ASTM C 990-91 along the construction joint in the section that is already in place. D. After setting the precast roof section of the stormwater treatment system, set precast concrete manhole riser sections, to the height required to bring the cast iron manhole covers to grade, so that the sections are vertical and in true alignment with a ¼-inch (6 mm) maximum tolerance allowed. Backfill in a careful manner, bringing the fill up in 6-inch (152 mm) lifts on all sides and compacting the granular bedding to 95% Standard Procter Density per ASTM D698. If leaks appear, clean the inside joints and caulk with lead wool to the satisfaction of the Engineer. Precast sections shall be set in a manner that will result in a watertight joint. In all instances, installation of stormwater treatment systems shall conform to ASTM specification C 891 “Standard Practice for Installation of Underground Precast Utility Structures”. E. Holes made in the concrete sections for handling or other purposes shall be plugged with a nonshrink grout or by using grout in combination with concrete plugs. F. Where holes must be cut in the precast sections to accommodate pipes, do all cutting before setting the sections in place to prevent any subsequent jarring which may loosen the mortar joints. The Contractor shall make all pipe connections. The cost of all required labor, equipment and materials necessary to manufacture, furnish, and install the BMP Structure shall be included in the pay item: BMP Structure, Furnish & Install. SP-34.
