Xinyu Teng and Ryan Moeller met with F&S sustainable water experts to discuss potential projects for the WEF design challenge this coming spring.  

Colleen Ruhter, P.E. provided the following resources following the meeting. 

Thanks everyone for chatting today.

Here are some great resources for you to look at to get some ideas for stormwater retrofits.

The MD. Dept of the Env. (MDE) has some really good resources for calculating pollution removal based off of their standard design criteria.  If you guys decide you want to look into pollutant removal rates, I can help with that (as much as I can remember from the 7+ years ago that I worked in MD, anyway).

If you’re looking for more straightforward quantification (such as volume treated), that should be easier to calculate. 

Please let me know how I can help any further. 

Thanks,

~Colleen
