2 Contents 01 Introduction to Sustain What is and How Can it Help Evaluate BMPs and LIDs for sustainability goals? InfoSWMM 2D 04 SWMMLive How do you use and understand the tools in? What is InfoSWMM 2D and How Can it Help with Flooding and CSO Studies? What is SWMMLive and How it allows users to perform multiple scenario analysis simulations, evaluate improved real-time control strategies and quickly see the effect of these changes on the system.

3 Urban Stormwater Impacts Water Quantity: Urban Flooding Costly interruptions of urban transportation and other activities. Damage to property and infrastructure. Water Quality: Urban stormwater is listed as the primary source of impairment for 13% of all rivers, 18% of all lakes, and 32% of all estuaries. In 2010, stormwater caused more than 8,700 beach closing and advisory days; sewage spills and overflows caused more than 1,800. Hydrologic, Geomorphic, and Biological Impacts: Increased stormwater volume and velocity causes flooding, reduced bank stability, and channel erosion. Impaired habitat and water quality impact fisheries and shellfish harvesting.

4 Approaches to Managing Stormwater The Conveyance Approach Rapidly remove stormwater from impervious surfaces to receiving streams by way of engineered drainage systems (e.g., culverts, storm drains, and channelized streams). The Infiltration Approach () Retain stormwater as close as possible to its originating source(s), infiltrating as much as possible into the soil by using best management practices and strategies.

5 Comprehensive Urban Stormwater Treatment & Analysis Tool is a decision support system to systematically evaluate the benefits (runoff and pollutant load reductions) and costs associated with various GI implementation scenarios (location, number, type, and size of GIs), and identify the most costeffective options for achieving desired flow mitigation and pollutant reduction. Answers Key Questions: o How effective are GIs (LIDs and BMPs) in reducing runoff and pollutant loadings o What are the most costeffective solutions for meeting water quality and quantity objectives? Low Impact Development/BMP Siting Tool o And where, what type, and how extensive should the GIs be? Cost-Benefit Optimization Framework Seamless Integration with GIS & SWMM5 Design and Performance Reporting of Costs, Water Quality, & Water Quantity

6 Advantages 02 ALL LID TYPES Supported Natively model all LID types using latest SWMM5 engine in one interface 04 REPORTING Powerful Use InfoSWMM robust reporting to easily analyze design performance 01 INTEGRATION Under-one-hood Seamless integration with EPA SWMM5 engine, 100% GIS Integrated (latest ArcGIS platform) 03 CONFIGURATION Flexible No fields are hard-coded. Choose a variety of different format & fields.

7 What are BMPs, LIDs, SUDS? What is? is a decision support system that assists stormwater management professionals with developing and implementing plans for flow and pollution control measures to protect source waters and meet water quality goals. It allows watershed and stormwater practitioners to develop, evaluate, and select optimal BMP/LID/GI combinations at various watershed scales based on cost and effectiveness. It extends the capabilities and functionality of InfoSWMM by providing integrated analysis of water quantity, quality, and cost factors. Definitions: o BMP: Best Management Practice o LID: Low Impact Development o GI: Green Infrastructure o SUDS: Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems o SUSTAIN*: System for Urban Stormwater Treatment and Analysis Integration *Developed by EPA's Office of Research and Development (ORD)

8 What is the Workflow Process? STEP 1 Run Site Manager to Locate Potential LID Sites STEP 2 Identify selected Combination of LID Candidates STEP 3 Run Optimizer to Optimize LID Candidate Parameters STEP 4 Develop Performance Reports to Compare LID Scenarios STEP 5 Apply Preferred LID Candidates Directly to InfoSWMM Scenario Applications: o Implement TMDL plans o Identify pollutant reductions o Determine optimal green infrastructure (GI) strategies for reducing volume and peak flows to CSOs o Evaluate benefits of distributed GI on water quantity/quality in streams o Develop a phased BMP installation plan using cost effectiveness curves

9 Siting Green Infrastructure (the Old, Tedious Way ) Find open space on a map (3 sites selected) Investigate sites one by one based on GIS information: slope pervious/impervious soil type land use type ownership groundwater levels Based on site properties, only Site 2 has real potential Determine which types of green infrastructure fit that site (1-2 types considered per location) A very lengthy and costly process.
