Design Information[edit]

  • Consistent hydrology modelling to be utilized for each development application and/or consistent with MESP/MSP/Studies.
  • Supporting information has been included for all modelling parameters and calculations.
  • Stage-Storage-Discharge calculations provided for each SWM facility including design information on control and emergency overflow weirs.
  • Flow and storage summary tables provided which reference the associated drainage area, catchment ID, outlet(s) and differentiate between controlled and uncontrolled areas.
  • Identify and show seasonal high groundwater levels in report and on drawings;
  • Per MOECC SWM manual, 2003 (i.e. Drainage area, required volume, slopes, forebay, etc.);
  • The SWM report and drawings are to include a table summarizing required storage, provided storage and associated elevation and flow for the permanent pool, 25mm (extended detention), and 2 through 100 year return period storm events where applicable for each facility;
  • An operations and maintenance manual should be included in the SWM Report for all LID facilities in accordance with municipal requirements;
  • Complete information on proposed manufactured treatment devices is to be provided including current status under ETV protocols;
  • An operations and maintenance manual is to be provided that includes a maintenance schedule;

Quantity control[edit]

  • Runoff coefficient or imperviousness calculations;
  • Analysis using appropriate storm distributions;
  • Pre-development peak flow (m3/s);
  • Post-development uncontrolled peak flow (m3/s);

  • Outlet design and calculations;
  • Total storage required (m3);
  • Total storage provided (m3);
  • Table comparing provided versus required;
  • Overland flow conveyance and design;
  • External drainage conveyance (100 year and Regional);

Quality control[edit]

  • Level of Protection;
  • Drainage Area to Facility in hectares;
  • Percentage Impervious – total and directly connected areas;
  • SWM Facility Monitoring and Maintenance Requirements;

Hazard land management[edit]
