BMP Owner Acknowledgement Agreement See appendix A. D. Right -of -Entry Statement Allows the City of Carmel to inspect and maintain the BMP structure as necessary. See appendix B. E. BMP Description & Operation The stormwater runoff from the site will discharge into a Stormwater Quality Treatment unit manufactured by Hydro - International known as a Downstream Defender® Storm Water Quality Unit. This hydrodynamic separation method will capture the required Total Suspended Solids (TSS) along with floating debris and hydrocarbons prior to discharging into the detention pond. We have selected a 4- foot diameter model with a maximum Treatment Flow Rate for this sized structure 3.0 cfs. The calculated peak discharge treatment rate for the proposed site improvements routed through the 4 -foot diameter models is 1.08 cfs. Downstream Defender® is an approved Stormwater Quality Unit (SQU) in an off - line configuration and meets all the requirements of the City of Carmel Stormwater Technical Standard Manual; therefore, the Downstream Defender® Storm Water Quality Unit is an ideal fit for this development. The Connecting /Diversion Structure with Sump into the Downstream Defender should be periodically cleaned and maintained as a BMP. A secondary BMP being utilized for this project is a Snout® oil /water separator. A Snout® will be proposed on the BMP diversion structure with a 2' sump prior to discharging into the dry detention basin. Although the downstream wet detention pond does not meet all of the design standards of a BMP, proper maintenance of the pond will provide a Post - Construction storm water quality benefit. For more information concerning the BMP locations /structures, see appendix C. F. Maintenance Requirements See appendix E ii. See appendix E See appendix E iv. See appendix E v. Property Management Company — Convenience Centers, LLC G. Site Drawings See appendix C ii. See appendix C See appendix C iv. See appendix C H. Inspection Reports The first inspection report is due one year after construction is completed, with subsequent reports due each year within the same month of the initial report. If there are any deficiencies found during the inspection, these should be addressed. If the inspection report is not received within the month it is due, if there are deficiencies which were not included in the report, or if any deficiencies included in the report are not addressed in a timely manner, the BMP owner faces enforcement action from the City.

Hydro International 2 DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER° OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Downstream Defender° by Hydro International BENEFITS OF THE DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER The Downstream Defender is an advanced Hydrodynamic Vortex Separator designed to provide high removal efficiencies of settleable solids and their associated pollutants, oil, and floatables over a wide range of flow rates. The Downstream Defender has unique, flow- modifying internal components developed from extensive full -scale testing, CFD modeling and over thirty years of hydrodynamic separation experience in wastewater, combined sewer and stormwater applications. These internal components distinguish the Downstream Defender from simple swirl -type devices and conventional oil /grit separators by minimizing turbulence and headlosses, enhancing separation, and preventing washout of previously stored pollutants. The high removal efficiencies and inherent low headlosses of the Downstream Defender allow for a small footprint making it a compact and economical solution for the treatment of non -point source pollution. • Removes sediment, floatables, oil and grease • No pollutant washouts • Small footprint • No loss of treatment capacity between clean -outs • Low headloss • Efficient over a wide ranges of flows • Easy to install • Low maintenance APPLICATIONS • New developments and retrofits • Utility yards • Streets and roadways • Parking lots • Pre - treatment for filters, infiltration and storage • Industrial and commercial facilities • Wetlands protection DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER COMPONENTS 1.

Isolated Sediment Storage Zone 3 DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER® OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL Operation INTRODUCTION The Downstream Defender operates on simple fluid hydraulics. It is self- activating, has no moving parts, no external power requirement and is fabricated with durable non - corrosive components. No manual procedures are required to operate the unit and maintenance is limited to monitoring accumulations of stored pollutants and periodic clean -outs. The Downstream Defender has been designed to allow for easy and safe access for inspection /monitoring and clean -out procedures. Entry into the unit or removal of the internal components is not necessary for maintenance, thus safety concerns related to confined - space -entry are avoided. POLLUTANT CAPTURE AND RETENTION The internal components of the Downstream Defender have been designed to protect the oil, floatables and sediment storage volumes so that separator performance is not reduced as pollutants accumulate between clean -outs. Additionally, the Downstream Defender is designed and installed into the storm drain system so that the vessel remains wet between storm events. Oil and floatables are stored on the water surface in the outer annulus separate from the sediment storage volume in the sump of the unit providing the option for separate oil disposal, and accessories such as adsorbant pads. Since the oil /floatables and sediment storage volumes are isolated from the active separation region, the potential for re- suspension and washout of stored pollutants between clean -outs is minimized. WET SUMP The sump of the Downstream Defender retains a standing water level between storm events. The water in the sump prevents stored sediment from solidifying in the base of the unit. The clean -out procedure becomes more difficult and labor intensive if the system allows fine sediment to dry -out and consolidate. Dried sediment must be manually removed by maintenance crews. This is a labor intensive operation in a hazardous environment. BLOCKAGE PROTECTION The Downstream Defender has large clear openings and no internal restrictions or weirs, minimizing the risk of blockage and hydraulic losses. In addition to increasing the system headloss, orifices and internal weirs can increase the risk of blockage within the unit. Maintenance OVERVIEW The Downstream Defender protects the environment by removing a wide range of pollutants from stormwater runoff. Periodic removal of these captured pollutants is essential to the continuous, long- term functioning of the Downstream Defender. The Downstream Defender will capture and retain sediment and oil until the sediment and oil storage volumes are full to capacity. When sediment and oil storage capacities are reached, the Downstream Defender will no longer be able to store removed sediment and oil. Maximum pollutant storage capacities are provided in Table 1. Figure 1: Pollutant storage volumes of the Downswtream Defender 4 DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER® OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL The Downstream Defender allows for easy and safe inspection, monitoring and clean -out procedures. A commercially or municipally owned sump -vac is used to remove captured sediment and floatables. Access ports are located in the top of the manhole. On the 6 -ft, 8 -ft and 10 -ft units, the floatables access port is above the outlet pipe between the concrete manhole wall and the dip plate. The sediment removal access ports for all Downstream Defender models are located directly over the hollow center shaft. Maintenance events may include Inspection, Oil & Floatables Removal, and Sediment Removal. Maintenance events do not require entry into the Downstream Defender, nor do they require the internal components of the Downstream Defender to be removed. In the case of inspection and floatables removal, a vactor truck is not required. However, a vactor truck is required if the maintenance event is to include oil removal and /or sediment removal. DETERMINING YOUR MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE The frequency of cleanout is determined in the field after installation. During the first year of operation, the unit should be inspected every six months to determine the rate of sediment and floatables accumulation. A simple probe such as a Sludge Judge® can be used to determine the level of accumulated solids stored in the sump. This information can be recorded in the maintenance log (see page 9) to establish a routine maintenance schedule. The vactor procedure, including both sediment and oil /flotables removal, for a 6 -ft Downstream Defender typically takes less than 30 minutes and removes a combined water /oil volume of about 500 gallons. Table 1 INSPECTION PROCEDURES Inspection is a simple process that does not involve entry into the Downstream Defender. Maintenance crews should be familiar with the Downstream Defender and its components prior to inspection. SCHEDULING • It is important to inspect your Downstream Defender every six months during the first year of operation to determine your site - specific rate of pollutant accumulation. • Typically, inspection may be conducted during any season of the year RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT • Safety Equipment and Personal Protective Equipment (traffic cones, work gloves, etc.) • Crow bar or other tool to remove grate or lid • Pole with skimmer or net • Sediment probe (such as a Sludge Judge ®) • Trash bag for removed floatables • Downstream Defender Maintenance Log Downstream Defender Pollutant Storage Capacities and Max.

Tangential inlet Dip plate cylinder Benching skirt Hydro International turning water around...' Isolated sediment storage zone Access to the sump for cleanout HOW IT WORKS Gwip' Outlet pipe Center shaft Center cone Isolated sediment storage zone The Downstream Defender has internal components designed to advance vortex separation by minimizing turbulence and headloss, increasing efficiency and preventing washout of stored pollutants. Stormwater is introduced tangentially into the side of the vessel, generating a rotating flow that spirals around the outside of the dip plate (red arrow). Oils, trash and floatable debris rise to the water surface and are trapped in the oil and floatables storage volume (yellow zone). As flow continues to spiral down around the dip plate cylinder, low energy vortex motion directs sediment inward along the benching skirt and into the protected sediment storage zone (brown zone). The benching skirt and center cone redirect the rotating flow up and inward between the center shaft and dip plate cylinder away from the stored sediment. The outlet pipe discharges treated effluent from within the dip plate cylinder ensuring the longest possible residence time (blue arrow). Advanced vortex separation is provided by extending and stabilizing the flow path while protecting trapped pollutants for a wide range of flow rates.

Cleanout ports are located in the top of the manhole and provide access to pollutant storage areas. Maintenance is generally conducted every 12 to 18 months, although individual maintenance schedules are site specific. Hydro International works with owners and municipalities through networks of certified maintenance contractors to ensure proper maintenance practices. The Downstream Defender is sized and designed to accommodate site parameters. The device is commonly installed in an on -line configuration (figure A). In an off -line configuration an upstream diversion structure with an integral weir diverts treatment flows to the Downstream Defender.

Failure to comply with handling, and installation instructions voids all warranties. 1. Upon delivery of the DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER® components, inspect immediately for defects or shipping damage. If any discrepancies are found, notify Hydro International prior to unloading to initiate corrective action. Unloading of a damaged unit without notifying Hydro International voids all warranties and releases liability of costs to repair or replace from Hydro International and places onto the contractor. 2. At all times during unloading and installation, avoid unnecessary and extreme impacts to the internal components. All components shall be handled with firm and complete support. At no time shall anyone step, stand, or otherwise place an unnecessary load, on the components. 3. The DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER® shall be installed as soon after delivery as practical. Pending installation, all components shall be protected from ultraviolet light, vandalism, and impact. INSTALLATION — reference engineering drawings. 1. Excavation shall be properly prepared in advance and shall meet all applicable specifications for standards of construction. A sufficient sub -base of compacted stone, level and at correct elevation, is required as a minimum. Install the DOWNSTREAM DEFENDER® pre -cast base containing benching skirt in properly prepared excavation. Base must be level prior to installation of successive risers. 3. Install successive risers, cleaning joints and place supplied joint sealant per specifications. Ensure the riser(s) containing the inlet and overflow pipe knockouts is /are orientated per alignment shown on the engineering drawings. Do not install pre -cast lid. Grout pick holes, if applicable, with watertight non - shrink grout. NOTE: INTERNAL COMPONENTS NOT SHOWN FOR CLARITY OVERFLOW PIPE INLET PIPE PLAN VIEW 0 NCR ETE MANHOLE 4. Cut off the end of the inlet pipe (by others) at a 30° angle and connect so that the inlet pipe i.d. is tangent to the pre -cast i.d. as shown on the engineering drawings. Grout inlet knockout with watertight non - shrink grout (by others). Inlet pipe shall not protrude further into the unit than indicated on the engineering drawings. On the interior, grout must be finished to a uniform, smooth surface flush Hydro International • 94 Hutchins Drive • Portland, ME 04102 Tel: (207) 756 -6200 • Fax: (207) 756 -6212 • E -mail: hiltech @hil- tech.com with the pre -cast wall. No grout shall spill inside the unit. If required, plug inlet pipe and overflow pipe knockouts and test for watertightness. The cause of any leaks must be determined and corrected prior to backfilling. Failure to properly perform and pass test if required, releases Hydro from liability ensuing from such failure. 5. Center Shaft & Cone (10' units): If not bolted, attach shaft to dip plate using supplied 304 ss bolts, flat washers, lock washers and nuts. Install hardware so bolt heads are to the interior of the center shaft. 6. Place approved pipe coupling (by others) onto overflow stub. Using the lifting points on the support frame, carefully lower the dip plate assembly onto the stainless steel ledger angles attached to the interior wall of the pre -cast chamber. Orientate assembly so that overflow pipe stub aligns with overflow pipe knockout. 7. Attach the support frame to the ledger angles using supplied number of 304 ss bolts, flat washers, lock washers and nuts. On 10 foot units, square plate washers (supplied) are to be used in place of flat washers on top of support frame at the connection points to the four ledger angles. 8. Connect the outlet pipe to the overflow stub using the previously installed pipe coupling. Grout manhole outlet knockout with watertight non - shrink grout (by others). On the interior, grout must be finished to a uniform, smooth surface flush with pre -cast wall. No grout shall spill inside the unit. 9. Prepare the upper most riser joint with supplied joint sealant. Install pre -cast lid using match lines to correctly orientate the floatables access. The floatables access shall be located to the influent flow receiving side of the overflow pipe. 10. Install cast frame(s) and cover(s) using accepted construction standards of adjusting to grade. Carefully backfill around unit. DD - Handling & Install Instructions.doc Page 2 of 2 Rev. 11/10/04 H ydro International Downstream Defender Pipe Connections Defender Outlet The Defender outlet pipe passes through the manhole wall and is connected internally with a coupling to the overflow pipe stub. The overflow pipe stub is part of a roto- molded plastic component that has an outside diameter that corresponds to SDR 35 plastic pipe and cannot be modified. We recommend supporting the pipe and making the internal connection first, and then grouting the manhole opening with non - shrink grout after. Alternately, a manhole penetration boot may be used to obtain a watertight connection through the manhole wall. Depending on the difference in pipe o.d., the internal connection to the pipe stub can be accomplished with a standard pipe coupling, a large diameter coupling and bushing arrangement similar to the Fernco L.D.C.X. product line, a bituminous pipe wrap similar to Mar Mac Polyseal, or pvc fittings. (The pipe wrap is typically the most cost effective means of making the connection.) Where the outside diameters differ by more than 6" a pipe wrap may be the only option. In some instances where there is a very large difference in pipe o.d., a short length of pipe with an o.d. close to the stub should be connected with a standard " Fernco type" coupling and the connection to the larger o.d. pipe should be made outside of the Defender manhole. An external pipe wrap connection for pipes with very large differences in o.d. should utilize a grout diaper around the joint to ensure a watertight connection. In some cases there may be a lead -time of several days to fabricate and ship the required coupling. Please refer to the attached Downstream Defender Coupling Information sheet. Defender Inlet To initiate the vortex flow pattern, the inlet pipe enters the Defender manhole tangent to the inside diameter rather than passing through the manhole center line. The end of the pipe gets cut off at a 30° angle inside the manhole. An internal connection is not necessary on the inlet. To ensure a watertight connection, we recommend grouting the inlet with non - shrink grout. The shape and size of the inlet penetration in the manhole wall make it unlikely that a penetration boot can be used on the inlet.
