Question: 1 . Use WinSLAMM to determine the trapping efficiency ( for TSS ) of the detention pond. Provide the following information: a . Parameter setups

1. Use WinSLAMM to determine the trapping efficiency (for TSS) of the detention pond. Provide the following information:
a. Parameter setups in model
b. Model inputs
c. Model outputs
Detention pond:
Developer wants to develop a 4 acre site in Madison, WI. Details of the site are as follows:
Existing Land UseLand use is corn straight row crops in good condition
HSG B
100 ft sheet flow with slope 0.4%
1000 ft shallow concentrated flow with slope 2%
No channel flow
Proposed Site
100% impervious surfaces
HSG B
50 ft of sheet flow with slope 0.4%
1000 ft of shallow concentrated flow with slope 2%
50 feet of channel flow in a 2 wide by 2 high concrete pipe
50 feet at slope 1%(assume pipe is flowing full)
Retention pond area cannot exceed 0.5 acres. Outlet type of pond is discretion of designer.
2. How does the trapping efficiency compare with the stokes law calculations completed in the previous homework? Most standards are that a development needs to achieve 80% reduction in TSS (which is equivalent to a 5 micron particle). Does the pond meet this requirement? What TSS reduction is achieved by the pond? The graph below provides some help to convert from micron size to % reduction.
Stokes law calculations:
TSSaverage=73.65 mg/l
Smallest micron particle trapped in the pond =9 microns
Annual mass of oil v=28,657,642 liters
TSSannual mass=2,113.01 kg
