Document Description
The proposed project intends to retrofit the Port's existing storm water drainage infrastructure to provide better filtration of storm water runoff throughout the facility. The District has worked to implement aggressive best management practices (BMPs) including good housekeeping, expanded use and installation of drain filters and catch basin filtration inserts. However, the District continues to see elevated levels of metals on its runoff, in part due to the age of its storm water infrastructure, which was not designed to handle treatment of the volumes of water which can reach some drains during heavy rain. The existing infrastructure was built to convey water and protect life and property from flooding and damage, not accomodate modern water quality.
