Stormwater Testing Analysis
The stormwater collected from the detention tank was tested. A total of three trials per test. The stormwater testing results were compared to drinking water quality standards. The testing parameters are shown in the following table.
| Test Parameters | Test Method |
|---|---|
| pH | HACH Method #8156: pH |
| Nitrate | HACH Method #8171: Nitrate |
| Ammonia | HACH Method #10031: Ammonia |
| Total Nitrogen | HACH Method #10071: Total Nitrogen |
| Total Coliform | HACH Method #8074: Total Coliform |
| Total Hardness | HACH Method #8266: Total Hardness |
| Turbidity | Standard Method #2130B: Nephelometric Method |
| Total Suspended Solids | Standard Method #2540 C: Suspended Solids |
| Total Dissolved Solids | Standard Method #2540: Total Solids |

Stormwater Treatment Alternatives
Since the stormwater testing indicated that TSS and pH do not meet EPA and EDEQ Standards, the team had to determine appropriate treatment solutions through the following decision matrixes.
