New Test Method for Street Sweeping Impact on Runoff Water Quality
1. Scope
establish design of a rainfall generator/apparatus and its application to generate runoff from swept and unswept pavements and quantify the difference in pollutant concentrations induced by street sweeping
Keywords
street sweeping; nonstructural BMP; runoff; water quality; rainfall generator; rainfall simulator
Rationale
statistically robust quantitative evidence is needed to support water quality crediting within watershed management plans
