ITEM BACKGROUND: In October 2019, Monroe County received a Community Planning Technical Assistance grant from the Department of Economic Opportunity. The grant requires the County to update the Land Development Code for the management of stormwater and update two supporting guidance documents to be used by both County regulators and design professionals working within the County. The update will consider factors such as improving nutrient reduction in stormwater discharges and the effects of sea level rise. Updating the County's codes and guidance materials will focus on options to eliminate or reduce off-property discharges to decrease discharge to nearshore waters. The County has demonstrated its commitment to improving water quality through administrative and regulatory policies. The Coastal Management Element of the Comprehensive Plan states that we shall develop a comprehensive development plan that establishes specific goals for safe management and disposal of stormwater and conservation of our water resources. The county adopted Stormwater Management Ordinance Section 114-3 of the Land Development Code, which establishes guidelines for the safe management and disposal of stormwater from developed areas. This project includes the preparation of recommendations for Code amendments to Monroe County Code Sections 114-2(a)(5) and 114-3 to reflect the identified best practices in floodplain management ensuring consistency and streamlining the process. Monroe County developed a "Manual of Stormwater Management Practices" in 1994 to accompany the Monroe County Stormwater Management Ordinance. The Manual provided Best Management Practices (BMP's) that were appropriate for the time. The manual has not been updated since 1994 and no longer reflects advancements in stormwater management practices and standards. In conjunction with the Manual, Monroe County developed a "Layman's Brochure" that provided guidelines for incorporation of BMP's in the preparation of site plans for single family and duplex lots. The work provided for through this grant has resulted in updates to the Manual and Brochure and revisions for changes to Section 114-2(a)(5) and 114-3 of the Land Development Code. The drafted documents have been developed by the County's consultant, Jones Edmunds and Packet Pg. 1728 H.5 Associates, under the direction and guidance of Mike Roberts, Assistant Director Environmental Resources. To arrive at the recommended revisions, the consultant was required to prepare an analysis of existing principles and guidelines from various sources such as the South Florida Water Management District's Environmental Resource Permit Applicant's Handbook as well as stormwater manuals for other jurisdictions in the state with similar stormwater challenges and conditions. Further, the County and the consultant co-hosted two stakeholder engagement forum webinars to solicit the feedback from stormwater design professionals and County stormwater inspection and permit review staff. The forums were intended to gather information on building improved and more resilient stormwater management systems and to solicit ideas on BMP's for implementation. Information obtained through the analysis of existing principles and the forums were used to inform the draft revised Manual, Brochure and changes to Monroe County Code Sections 114-2(a)(5) and 114-3. The grant requires a public meeting to communicate the proposed code amendments and the revised Manual and Brochure. This meeting is required by the grant and provides an opportunity for the Board of County Commissioners and interested members of the public to review and provide feedback and direction on the draft documents and proposed Code revisions. The proposed Code revisions include references to the updated Manual and Layman's Brochure as appropriate. The code revisions also require that stormwater discharges meet net improvement criteria consistent with state standards or reduce the post-development annual average stormwater total nitrogen and phosphorous load by 95%. Compliance is attained when projects are designed, constructed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the BMPs requirements found in the manual of stormwater management practices. The proposed code revisions further eliminate the use of dry detention and wet retention as best management practices, as these options have been shown to not achieve the required net improvement in water quality. Section 114-3(h)(6)requires BOCC approval of the Manual, so the revised Manual and Brochure are included with this agenda item.

It is the intent of this Section to establish guidelines and criteria for the safe management and disposal of stormwater runoff from developed areas that will minimize `V or eliminate any resultant adverse impacts on the surface water, groundwater, and other natural resources of the county. These guidelines consider the effects of sea level rise and encourage the use of low impact development and new stormwater i management approaches that reduce off-property discharges. These procedures are intended to assist in protection of the vital water resources of the Florida Keys, including the reservoir of freshwater on Big Pine Key and the near shore waters of the Gulf of Mexico, Florida Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. Packet Pg. 1736 H 5.a (b) Applicability. Projects discharging to impaired waters or to Outstanding Florida Waters (OFW) are subject to additional requirements for mitigation of pollutant loads. Single- family and duplex residences are required to observe best management practices (BMPs) as identified in the sections of the current edition of the Ceounty's M+franual of sStormwaterMmanagement ppractices clearly labeled as applicable to single-family and duplex residences and are subject only to the criteria, administrative procedures, and maintenance/retrofitting requirements identified in Subsection (d) of this Section and other applicable provisions of the Comprehensive Plan and this Land Development Ln Code. All other applications for a county building permit are subject to all the criteria N established in this Section, except those identified in Subsection (c). Except as specifically exempted in Subsection (c) below, applications for a building permit for properties that are nonconforming to the standards of this Section shall be subject to the requirements of Section 114-110. .E (c) Exemptions. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Land Development Code, the following activities are exempt from the requirements of this Section, unless otherwise CL required by State or Federal Law: (1) Maintenance work on existing mosquito drainage structures for public health and welfare purposes, provided that the activities do not increase peak discharge rate or pollution load; (2) Routine maintenance and minor modification of existing impervious area other than single family and duplex residences provided it meets one of the following conditions: .S a. The maintenance does not increase the existing impervious conditions of the site; Cr C 2 or CD b. The proposed maintenance is certified by a licensed engineer demonstrating that the maintenance will not increase the design peak discharge rate, volume pollution load of stormwater runoff, or impervious coverage of the site; or .2 c. The placement of a new structure does not change the designed peak discharge rate, volume or pollution load, or increase impervious coverage of site area of stormwater runoff from the site. (3) Emergencies requiring immediate action to prevent material harm or danger to _ persons when obtaining a permit is impractical and would cause undue hardship in i protection of property from fire, violent storms, hurricanes, or other hazards. A report of the emergency action shall be made to the county administrator as soon as practicable. All emergency action shall also be temporary in nature and be reversed n' or appropriately remedied after the emergency has passed; i (4) Single-family and duplex residences built on individual lots that are part of an existing subdivision, provided a stormwater management system approved by the i Monroe County Growth Management Division or South Florida Water Management U District (SFWMD) is in place, and is provided as part of the application materials; Packet Pg. 1737 H.S.a (5) Maintenance, repair, or installation of underground or overhead utility facilities, such as, but not limited to, pipes, conduits and vaults, including replacing the ground surface with in-kind material or materials with similar runoff characteristics; 2 (6) Installation of a new or replacement of an existing public drainage system, public 2 combined sewer, public sanitary sewer, or public water supply system; (7) Road and parking lot maintenance limited to the following activities: a.

Forested upland areas/vegetative buffer strips (both natural and y manmade) which will be retained intact and over or through which v vehicular access or travel is not possible and will not occur; and ii. Open water surfaces and wetlands (salt marsh, buttonwood, mangroves, or freshwater marsh habitat types). .E It will be the responsibility of the applicant to affirmatively demonstrate that the BMPs used for the project are designed, constructed, and CL maintained properly. 3. For the purposes of this Section, the term "discharging directly to sensitive waters" means the discharge of runoff via a pipe or channel outfall to the near c shore waters, including canals, for which there is no intervening stormwater treatment system such as those listed in Subsection (g)(2)b.3. of this LU Section. Sensitive receiving waters are defined as Class I waters, Class II waters, Class III waters, OFWs, impaired water bodies as defined by 62-303, FAC, and/or canals connecting with these waters. Cr 4. Treatment storage recovery shall be estimated using a safety factor of two for 2 retention systems with supporting infiltration tests. Q '2 onnlinohlo (3) Construction considerations. After complying with the 2 water quantity and water quality criteria provisions of this Section as applicable, if discharge structures are necessary, the following design construction considerations ,W shall apply: a. Discharge structures. 1. All design discharges from the site shall be made through and controlled by structural discharge facilities. Earth berms shall be used only to disperse or collect sheet flows from or to ditches, swales, or other water channels, served by discharge structures. i 2 Discharge stFHetHFes sh-.II be stFHete d se that they aFe stab.,..-fy P, 2. Discharge structures shall include gratings for safety and maintenance purposes. Removal of trash is mandatory if the stormwater management i system discharges into surface waters and/or outstanding state waters. 3. Discharge structures shall include systems that would allow discharge from other than the top or bottom of the water column and shall include a 0) cleanable jump area for the sediment removal. Discharge structures from Packet Pg. 1742 H.S.a areas with greater than 50 percent impervious area or systems with inlets in paved areas shall include a baffle, skimmer, or other mechanism suitable for preventing oil and grease from discharging to and/or from retention/detention areas. 2 4. Direct discharges, such as through culverts, storm drains, or weir structures, will normally be allowed to receivinn e waters which by virtue of their large capacity and configuration, are easily able to absorb concentrated discharges. Such receiving waters might include existing storm sewer systems and y manmade ditches, canals, the bay, channels, and the ocean. v 5. Indirect discharges, such as overflow and spreader swales, are required where the receiving water or its adjacent supporting ecosystem might be degraded by a direct discharge. The discharge structure would therefore discharge into the overflow, spreader swale, or other channel, which in turn would release the water to the actual receiving water. Such receiving watersCL might include marshes, wetland, salt marshes and land naturally receiving overland sheet flow. b. Dry retention'-' R areas (not applicable to natural or mitigation wetland areas). 1. Dry retention'dn areas shall allow for the return of the groundwater LU level in the area to the control elevation. 0 2.

Stormwater is the water that results from a rain event. Runoff is defined as the portion of stormwater that does not percolate into the ground, evaporate, and is not intercepted N before reaching a stormwater management system. Stormwater runoff from undeveloped < lands usually does not present a management problem since it is relatively clean, and the volume usually is minimal. When natural land is converted to some other land uses, stormwater becomes a problem and should be managed. Soil is often paved over and impervious surfaces are created. When impervious surfaces are created, stormwater is no longer able to percolate into the ground and accumulates on the surface causing flooding in CL some areas. These impervious areas also allow for pollution accumulation, degrading the quality of stormwater runoff and rendering it a pollution source. For these two reasons, flooding (water quantity) and pollution (water quality), stormwater management practices are implemented in developed areas. U Stormwater runoff quality varies with land use. A multitude of pollutants exist in stormwater LU runoff as well as the sources for these pollutants. These pollutants can consist of nutrients, solid waste, litter, lead, petroleum products (from automobiles), chemicals, fertilizers, and herbicides applied to lawns, and atmospheric deposition. Higher nutrient loads are generated by residential and industrial land uses and commercial, mixed urban, and Cr roadways generate higher concentrations of metal contamination. Heavy metals are of 2 concern because several are known to be toxic to many aquatic plant and animal species. Motor vehicles and road surfaces are the main sources of heavy metals in stormwater runoff. Nutrients and pesticides from lawn fertilizers and atmospheric deposition can cause algal blooms and similar occurrences if untreated runoff is allowed to enter surface waters. During a rainfall event, stormwater runoff flows over these surfaces, picking up pollutants, and carrying them to surface waters. Stormwater not only causes adverse environmental impacts, but economic impacts as well. An increase in the number of impervious surfaces increases the potential for flooding and property damage. Stormwater can also lead to reduced fisheries production because of the _I degradation of water quality. For these reasons, stormwater management practices have been implemented throughout Florida and the United States. This manual is designed as a guide to Best Management Practices (BMP's) for stormwater management in Monroe 1 County. A stormwater management practice is one that shapes and improves the quality and quantity of stormwater runoff being discharged to receiving waters. BMPs for stormwater are those that meet discharge quantity and quality criteria at a minimal cost (Wanielista and Yousef, 1985). Section 114-3 of the Monroe County Code addresses the issue of flood protection and water quantity management. Although this stormwater management ordinance does have general 13015-001-01 June 2020 Intr Packet Pg. 1751 H.S.b DRAFT criteria for water quantity and flood protection, the purpose is to control stormwater- generated pollution and is water quality based. The practices and procedures described in this manual are those in common usage throughout Florida and also apply to Monroe County. The bibliography at the end of this 2 manual lists some of the relevant sources of additional information on this subject. This manual will be used to review and approve stormwater management systems permitted by the County and will be modified as appropriate technology dictates.

A Plan is to be submitted as part of the Monroe County building permit application. The Plan will indicate how project design will incorporate the required stormwater treatment criteria. The following is an outline of those elements that may be required as part of a stormwater management plan. Appendix 5 contains a check-list of these elements. This will allow v, County staff to determine which of the elements a specific plan should or should not require N for each site. Some of these elements are required for other parts of a County building permit, but also need to be considered as part of the Stormwater Management Plan.

The volume to be treated depends on the type of stormwater management facility(ies) used and the land use of the property. The two most commonly used methods of stormwater treatment are wet detention and dry Ln; retention. A detention facility collects and temporarily stores a treatment volume to provide v for treatment through physical, chemical, or biological processes with subsequent gradual release of the stormwater to a surface water system. A retention facility is designed to prevent the discharge of a given volume; however, it is slowly released from the facility. A retention or detention facility built above the groundwater table is "dry." A facility with the bottom below the control elevation is "wet." Figure 1 conceptually illustrates the differences between each. The wet-season water table plays an important part in the functioning of CL retention systems. To ensure that stormwater practices continue to function, a stormwater design will need to include a determination of the wet-season water table and an estimate of the future wet-season water table. The future wet-season water table will be assumed to be increased by the difference in sea level in the year that the wet-season water table determination was made and the projected sea level 30 years after the permitting. The LU estimated sea level rise projections adopted the Southeast Florida Climate Change Compact must be used for this determination. A newer approach to stormwater management is called Low Impact Development or Design Cr (LID). This approach seeks to replicate a more natural hydrologic function on the landscape 2 and uses a combination of stormwater management practices to meet the objective stated above. Some of these practices include pervious pavement, vegetated swales, vegetated a, filter strips, bioretention systems, cisterns, and green roofs. Very often a stormwater management system incorporates a combination of treatment methods. It is unfeasible to describe all the possible combinations in this manual. The criteria for each individual type of treatment is detailed. The intent is to ensure that the proper volume of runoff is treated in an appropriate manner for the land use. References to guidelines for LID approaches to stormwater management are also provided. Appendices 3 through 6 provide the design criteria for each form of management. 2 r_ c i 13015-001-01 June 2020 Methods of Stormwater Tr Packet Pg. 1756 H.S.b DRAFT Figure c atiic f Four Basic Detention/Ret tii Stormwater Runoff Management Systems WET DETENTION BASIN DRY RETENTION BASIN E c INFLOW CONTROLLED INFLOW NO OUTFLOW L. {3UTFLOW EVAPORATICIN ♦ ♦ ® EVAPORATION i DETENTION ; y STORAGE PERCOLATION e�e PERCOLATION CL Source: Adapted from Whalen and Cullum, 1988. 4.1 T DETENTION c U ..1.1 DEFINITION Wet detention is the collection and temporary storage of stormwater runoff—before controlled discharge into receiving waters—in a permanently wet impoundment in such a manner as to provide for treatment through physical, chemical, and biological processesCr S with subsequent gradual release of the stormwater. A wet detention facility is a basin or 2 pond with a bottom elevation below the wet-season water table or control elevation. ..1.2 REQUIREMENTS As ExPRESSED IN THIS MANUAL Stormwater designs must demonstrate a net improvement in nutrient loads or a 95 percent reduction in pollutant loads. This can be demonstrated through methods that are accepted by the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). An example of one of these methods is using BMP Trains, which is freely available from the University of Central Florida Stormwater Management Academy (https:!lstars.library.ucf.edulbmptrains!). As an alternative to demonstrating net improvement or 95-percent reduction, wet detention i with pretreatment that meets the following criteria can be used as a stormwater practice and will be presumed to meet the County stormwater treatment objectives: • i Provide a treatment volume sized to the first 1 inch of runoff from the site or the total of 2.5 inches times the percent of impervious area, whichever is greater. • One-half inch of the detained volume must be released through a control structure within 24 hours. • Wet detention cannot be used as the sole form of stormwater treatment. Projects using wet detention must provide at least 2.5 inch of runoff pre-treatment in dry retention E before discharging into a wet detention facility. 13015-001-01 June 2020 Methods of Stormwater Tr Packet Pg. 1757 H.S.b DRAFT 4.1.3 METHOD OF ACHIEVEMENT � Man-made lakes or ponds on the site are generally used for wet detention. These lakes or ponds must meet the design criteria in Appendix 3 of this manual. The retention volume can be achieved using the guidelines in Section 4.2 and Section 4.3 of this manual. 2 4.2 c RETENTION ..2.1 DEFINITION Dry retention is a stormwater system designed to prevent the discharge of a given volume N of stormwater runoff into surface waters by complete on-site storage of that volume. A dry- retention facility has a bottom elevation at least 1 foot above the future condition wet- season water table and is usually dry. Stormwater is released only during times of heavy rainfall or flooding. .E ..2.2 REQUIREMENTS As ExPRESSED IN THIS MANUAL CL Stormwater designs must demonstrate a net improvement or a 95 percent reduction in pollutant loads in nutrient loads. This can be demonstrated through methods that are accepted by the SFWMD. An example of one of these methods is using the BMP Trains, which is freely available from the University of Central Florida Stormwater Management Academy (https:!lstars.library.ucf.edulbmptrains!). LU As an alternative to demonstrating net improvement or 95-percent nutrient load reduction, dry-retention systems that retain the retention depth listed in Table 1 multiplied by the total project area will be presumed to meet the County stormwater treatment objectives. Cr S 2 4.2.3 METHOD OF ACHIEVEMENT Examples of dry-retention facilities include infiltration systems (vegetated swales, m bioretention systems), and seepage systems (exfiltration trenches, pervious pavement, exfiltration vaults). Of these two, infiltration systems provide better pollution attenuation. The vegetation takes up a percentage of the nutrients commonly found in stormwater runoff. Most heavy metals bind with the soils above the water table, and the potential for them entering the groundwater is reduced. Seepage systems consist of an underground facility which that relies on a mostly outward _ dispersion of stormwater from the facility to the groundwater. These structures are i constructed a minimum of 1 foot above the future wet-season water table. These systems are most suitable for areas where the aquifer has a high transmissivity, such as Monroe County. However, they do not provide the nutrient uptake that is offered with vegetated i infiltration systems. Infiltration systems and seepage systems need a highly permeable substratum to allow the stormwater runoff to percolate into the ground. Seepage systems do not require as much land area as infiltration systems, since they can be installed underground. However, the future wet- season water table at the project site must be at least 1 foot below the seepage structure. 13015-001-01 June 2020 Methods of Stormwater Tr Packet Pg. 1758 H.S.b DRAFT Table 1 Required RetentionDepths for Stormwater Treatment Percent Impervious Required Retention Depth (Inches) 20 1.40 c 25 1.47 30 1.59 35 1.71 40 1.88 Ln 45 2.02 50 2.1`7 55 2.33 � CD 60 2.49 S .E 65 2.65 CL 70 2.81 75 2.99 80 3.16 c U 4.3 Low CT DEVELOPMENT OR DESIGN 4.3.1 DEFINITION LID is an approach to stormwater and land use management that aims to replicate a more natural hydrologic function by promoting infiltration, filtration, storage, and evaporation or Cr C stormwater runoff. This approach should focus on conservation, use of on-site natural features, site planning, and distributed stormwater management practices that are integrated into a project's design, especially its landscaping and open space. Stormwater management through LID often includes a treatment train consisting of several different stormwater management practices that combine to meet the stormwater quality objectives for the site. Examples of practices that are often included in LID are: • Minimizing clearing, grading, soil disturbance, and compaction on a site. • Minimizing impervious area on site. • Pervious pavement. • Shallow bioretention systems. 0)1 c • Vegetated or grassed swales. • Vegetated filter strips. • i Minimizing directly connected impervious area. • Cisterns. Stormwater harvesting. 4.3.2 REQUIREMENTS As ExPRESSED IN THIS ORDINANCE � Using a LID approach for stormwater management is encouraged in Monroe County. However, stormwater designs must demonstrate a net improvement or 95-percent reduction in pollutant loads. This can be demonstrated through methods that are accepted 13015-001-01 June 2020 Methods of Stormwater Tr Packet Pg. 1759 H.S.b DRAFT by SFWMD. An example of one of these methods is using BMP Trains, which is freely available from the University of Central Florida Stormwater Management Academy (https:llstars.library.ucf.edulbmgtrains/). E c 4,33 METHOD OF ACHIEVEMENT 2 c A LID approach to stormwater management starts during the planning and site evaluation and continues through the selection and design of the most appropriate stormwater treatment practices for the site. The goal of stormwater management should be to retain, detain, recharge, filter, and use as much stormwater as possible on a site. A variety of LID N design manuals in Florida describe this approach to stormwater management. These include but are not limited to the following: Low-Impact Development and Green Infrastructure: Pollution Reduction Guidance for Water Quality in Southeast Florida Sarasota County Low-Impact Development Guidance Document CL Duval County Low-Impact Development Stormwater Manual Pinellas County Stormwater Manual The manuals listed above provide design guidelines for a variety of LID Stormwater c practices, which include: • Grassed conveyance swales. • Shallow bioretention. • Pervious pavement. • Stormwater harvesting. Cr S • Green roofs. 2 • Rainwater harvesting (cisterns). • Detention with biofiltration. Monroe County will generally accept the LID practices and design consideration described in .2 the LID manuals referenced above, although it should be noted that the performance curves and tables provided in these manuals do not necessarily apply to Monroe County's hydrologic conditions. Pollutant load reductions will need to be determined by the appropriate Florida-registered and -licensed professional. W i c r_ c i 13015-001-01 June 2020 Methods of Stormwater Tr Packet Pg. 1760 H.S.b DRAFT 5 CONTROL STRUCTURES 5.1 DEFINITION A control structure is a device through or over which water is discharged from a stormwater management system. Direct discharge occurs when stormwater is released through a control structure to the receiving water body. If the discharge from the stormwater management system is by a means other than a control structure (e.g., sheet flow or spreader Swale), it is considered indirect discharge. y 5.2 PURPOSE The primary purpose of a control structure in a detention facility is to release the calculated runoff volume slowly over a specified period. In a retention facility the control structure allows for volumes in excess of the calculated retention volume to leave the system in a manner that provides for adequate downstream flood protection. CL 5.3 TYPES F CONTROL STRUCTURES Direct discharge from a water management facility to the receiving body is usually achieved U through control structures such as weirs and orifices. The following criteria must be met for LU all methods of direct discharge: 0 1. Trash-collecting gratings must be on the intake of all structures that discharge to surface waters. .5 2. Detention facilities must be discharged from the mid-depth of the water column. Cr C 3. If the property is greater than 50-percent impervious or contains a system with inlets in paved areas, discharge structures must include a baffle, skimmer, or other suitable mechanism for preventing oil and grease from being discharged. (Appendix 2 describes these mechanisms, which are part of a catch basin). 2 4. Direct discharge will only be allowed to those areas that by virtue of their large capacity or configuration are able to absorb concentrated discharges. .� When using indirect discharge to release stormwater, a spreader swale is commonly used. The swale is positioned parallel to the receiving body, and the side adjacent to the receiving body is lower than the side opposite the receiving body. Figure 2 illustrates this form of discharge. The swale allows the water to flow into the receiving body but not flood the adjoining property. This method works well when trying to maintain a proper water level in wetlands that are used for stormwater management. The spreader swale is also a treatment facility for stormwater runoff. Runoff in excess of the first flush is allowed to enter the wetland system via sheet flow. 13015-001-01 June 2020 Control St Packet Pg. 1761 H.S.b DRAFT Figure 2 St° t° Swale (Indirect i c r ) E 0 dry retention Swale wetland ` N vi H=depth of swale required W to treat runoff (example- 1st half inch of runoff) CL LU rr m 2 W 2 r- 0 13015-001-01 June 2020 Control St Packet Pg. 1762 H.S.b DRAFT 6 CRITERIA FOR SINGLE-FAMILY/DUPLEX LOTS Single family and duplex homes may be exempted from filing a Stormwater Management Plan pursuant to Section 14-3(d), provided guidelines established in the "Layman's Brochure" are used to treat stormwater. The Layman's Brochure and the following design criteria generally use vegetated swales. However, other retention practices may be used. The retention volume specified in these design criteria will provide adequate stormwater treatment on a single-family/duplex lot to meet the criteria of Section 114-3 (f) (2). Ln However, calculations demonstrating a net improvement or 95 percent reduction in nutrient N loads may be submitted as an alternative to using the retention volume specified in these design criteria. These stormwater calculations must be completed by an appropriate Florida- registered and -licensed professional. r The retention volume depends on the lot size and the stormwater management system used. Stormwater treatment can also be provided through the use of other retention CL systems such as pervious pavement, exfiltration trenches, or shallow stormwater vault systems. Required retention depths for single-family/duplex lost are provided in Table 2. U If swale(s) are used, they must meet the following criteria: • Runoff from site must be drained to Swale. • Swale length must be greater than its width. • Swale side slope must be 4:1 or shallower (horizontal to vertical). Cr • Swale must be placed so that any natural areas to be preserved are not disturbed. 2 • Swale must be at least 6 inches deep. • Swales should be vegetated. If a Swale is not vegetated, then a 6-inch layer of soil amendment formulated to reduce nutrient loading must be installed directly below the Swale. Specifications and published nutrient reduction test results for the media must be .2 provided at the time of testing. Examples of acceptable media are NutriGoneTM (distributed by EcoSense International) and Bold and Gold® (distributed by Environmental Conservation Solutions) Retention systems must discharge off-site to prevent flooding. For retention systems, a _ control structure will allow runoff in excess of the volume of the Swale to be discharged to i the receiving body. There may be More than one retention system may be present on the property, provided each meets these criteria and the total volume of the swales is at least the calculated volume. Vegetated swales may be incorporated into the set-back criteria i required by the Monroe County Code. Appendix 6 contains sample calculations for single- family/duplex lots.

These structures are commonly referred to as bleed-down mechanisms and allow for controlled release of a portion of detained volume over a specified period (usually 1/2 inch in 24 hours). Rectangular weirs are commonly used with detention and N retention facilities. In retention facilities, a rectangular weir allows for the runoff in excess of the retained volume to leave the facility. Rectangular weirs serve the same purpose in detention facilities, using a circular or triangular orifice as the bleed -down device. Figures 3A through 3C illustrate these different types of control structures and their use. The retained and detained volumes used in the determination of the dimensions of the control structures are calculated from the equations following each drawing.

The first is a circular orifice. As the name and illustration implies, it is a round opening. The bottom of the opening is at the control elevation. In the case of dry detention, the bottom of the circle is at the ground elevation. The most common method for constructing a circular orifice is placing a PVC pipe in the control structure. This pipe then discharges to the receiving body or to a conveyance system discharging to the receiving body. 13015-001-01 June 2020 Appendix 1 - Control St Packet Pg. 1767 H.S.b DRAFT The second type of orifice is a triangular orifice which is an inverted triangular opening in the control structure. The vertex of the orifice is at the control elevation. If the facility is a dry detention facility, the vertex is at the ground elevation. For maintenance purposes, the cross-sectional area of the orifice in any control structure 2 must be greater than 6 square inches to ensure that the structure allows for free flow of water and does not become clogged. The above formula is used to calculate the cross- sectional area of the orifice. The following is an example calculation for an orifice in a control structure which is part of a y wet detention facility.

The configuration of the opening allows for slow discharge of detained water over time. The rate of discharge depends on the angle of the V-notch. When designing a control structure with a V-notch weir, the angle is calculated using the above formula. Vdet refers to 1/2 inch of the detained volume that must be discharged within 24 hours. 2 0 For maintenance and functional purposes, the angle of the V-notch should not be less than 200 being the minimum to allow for adequate flow of water and to prevent blockage of the weir. The following is an example calculation for a V-notched weir, which is part of a 2-foot-deep < dry-detention facility, making the following assumptions: H=2.0 feet (depth of detention facility) V,w=500 ft2 , therefore, Vd,=0.01 acre feet tbels. t8 CL -&=2 arctan (0.492) ((Vd,/}i2-s)) =2 arctan (0.452) ((0.01/22s)) -&=2 arctan (0.03) -&=3.14 degrees 0 Since the calculated angle is less than 200, and the angle of the V-notch must be at least LU 200, this facility will need a 200 angle. Because most of the stormwater management facilities reviewed by County staff will be small, calculations in which the angle of the notch is less than 200 will be common. rr Figure °tan Mat Weir 'OJOQO00 QOOOOOC u00000C ppp��yyppQQ 000 00C 9G i! �!.�.� O000000 - CCcoo00 v..JJ-VVUU OOOQO00 ODcocO o° W00000000O00oo0000000000000000000 OCCOOC oD00c _ DooIleoocoOQ0D0000000CQ water level $°0O°°° pooQD c C 00OooQ000DC0o0oQQ0a0000000000000o g 000COo c 000c�ca�o O00oc _ pO000pGOOQOOOOO00000000000008000000D0C OflO0000QO0000000 OOOCCO3 _ 0000D0000QOOOC900000000000000000000^ p� �7ppnnnnnnnn 0 control C00000000000000000000000000000000000 800 00 000000-M j C MIC�°1no0O 00000000000000000000000000000000oocC Oc00000000000O000DO000C 0000000 cc0 0000Q000000000000000000000000Q00--�� 000000 OODOO®OOCOOG00000 OCCOOOCO a evati= OOOODOOflODO00000Q00000000000000000"" - ^ "' (� 00000000000QQ000 00000000Oo0O0D000CD 0000000000000000 OOOOCOOOCOCCC_ ODD 7060000C90O0'000� O r OOOCCOCDOS�00000 0000000000000 G C0O0 ^000000000000,.0 OC O OOOOOOOOOOQ000 OODOODOOODDDO O G DOOOOOOOOQOO"CCC CDOC 000:H0000 OQOOOC ^OOQOCOGDOCCGCC ^DD C G000 �OOCOQOOOC 0C;.0 OOOCOCOOOQCOO^aO �O° _ control OO O0 C cOoco 0 0 O C OCcoOOooG occoD �c ^ coODeoDDecDc elevation G_ o ��^ O COOO:CCCC Occ © DODO QG,ce cxncg - Ooc - _ I oflc occOO oc^ a0c�g OD000gOCCOS - DQo^ccco _ OOO Oc 000c000c x :_ cQ' c _ �r ..--- -----------.,..__Q�.:ccoccc..„_c:�= OOOCOCCOC C C CD JOn.zr: ..

A rectangular weir is used with retention facilities to discharge runoff in excess of the retained volume. A rectangular weir can also be used in conjunction with a detention facility that has an orifice for the delayed release of stormwater runoff. The rectangular weir allows for the discharge of excess runoff during severe rain events. The weir is constructed on top of the control structure. Rectangular weirs are used in areas 13015-001-01 June 2020 Appendix 1 - Control St Packet Pg. 1769 H.S.b DRAFT where a receiving water body exists for excess runoff or a method of conveying excess runoff to a receiving water body. Control structures can be made of several different types of materials. Those commonly used include concrete, cement, aluminum, and earthen material. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) 2 pipe is often used as a bleed-down mechanism (circular orifice). All control structures must discharge to a receiving body of water that has the capacity to handle the discharge. If no receiving water body exists adjacent to the stormwater management facility, some system for conveying the stormwater must be provided and is y commonly done by using swales, culverts, or similar mechanisms. However, an assurance < that water will not stand in enclosed structures (i.e., culverts) for extended periods must be provided since this may lead to water quality problems.

Catch basins, pipes, swales, or channels are used in areas with large amounts of impervious surface to collect runoff and convey it to the detention facility. The required design criteria of a wet detention facility are detailed below.: v, • The lakes must be at least 0.25 acre and be at least 50 feet wide for lakes in excess of 100 feet in length. • Irregularly shaped lakes may be narrower than 50 feet in some portions but should average 50 feet in width. • Projects with single-owner entities or entities with a full-time maintenance staff with obvious interests in maintaining the areas for water quality purposes may have the areaCL and width criteria waived. • The lake slopes should be at least 4:1 (horizontal to vertical), to a depth of 2 feet for safety reasons and to allow a littoral habitat to form. • Discharge should be from the center of the water column. • The control structure is at one point in the detention facility. Trash collection screens are LU required on structures discharging to all surface waters. • The control structure must be opposite from where the runoff enters the facility to prevent hydraulic short-circuiting and ensure full treatment. .5 Wet detention cannot be used as the sole form of stormwater. If wet detention is used, at Cr C least 2.5 inches of dry retention must be provided before discharging into a wet-detention facility. m 2 0) i c r_ c i 13015-001-01 June 2020 Appendix 3 - Wet-Retention Packet Pg. 1777 H.S.b E c c DRAFT CL L) Appendix 4 Dry-Retention Facilities w 2 C 0 Packet Pg. 1778 H.S.b DRAFT APPENDIX 4 - DRY- RETENTION FACILITIES Two types of dry-retention facilities exist — infiltration facilities and seepage facilities. The most common form of infiltration is vegetated swales or basins. Runoff is routed to a vegetated area, either directly or through a catch basin and conveyance system. A control structure, usually a rectangular weir, is at one end of the swale or basin to allow for excess runoff to be discharged to a receiving body. A spreader swale can also be used in conjunction with this form of treatment. This type of discharge is most often used to release N water through sheet flow to wetland areas or to prevent erosion. The seepage method of dry retention involves allowing the water to disperse outward from an underground facility. The runoff is routed to a catch basin and is conveyed to a seepage system. Exfiltration trenches are the most commonly used types of seepage systems. They are used in conjunction with catch basins and consist of a perforated pipe surrounded by coarse rock. Figure 5 shows that the system is in the ground, but above the wet-season CL water table. Water enters the pipe and seeps out. The retained volume will exfiltrate over 1 hour. The length of the pipe is dependent on several factors — the volume of runoff to be treated, the width of the trench, the depth to the water table, and the hydraulic conductivity c of the soils. When calculating the volume of an exfiltration trench, a safety factor of 2 is used to allow for geologic uncertainties. LU The formula shown in Figure 5 illustrates how to design an exfiltration trench. An overflow system allowing for volumes in excess of the retained volume is usually located at the end of the trench opposite the point where the runoff enters the system and discharges to theCr 5 receiving waters. Although exfiltration trenches provide adequate stormwater treatment and 2 allow more land for development, they must be inspected regularly and cleaned from time to time. The pipe can become clogged and not allow proper seepage. When this occurs, the pipe acts like a conduit for untreated stormwater. Ensuring that the catch basins are maintained is one way of preventing failure of the trench. .2 Required retention depth is based on Table 1. 0) i c r_ c i 13015-001-01 June 2020 Appendix 4 - Dry-Retention Packet Pg. 1779 H.S.b DRAFT Figure Typical Wiltration Trench BASE SELECT BACKFJI-1 >; 12INCHES JBACKFILL H2 UNSATURATRENCH 6ICtiES PIPE COVER Du 'DEPTH MINIMUM PIPE 12INCMIS PERFORATED MINIMUM PIPE DIAMETER T) D �� GIDARSE MiN MtAA INCHES PIPE BED 5 TRENCH WIDTH CL V L- K(HZW+2H2Du-ou2+2H2DS)+(1$9XId )WDU 0 Lz LENGTH OF TRENCH REOUIREDIFEET) c Vs VOLUME TREATED (ACRE-INCHES)* .

Detention facilities use orifices. The rate that water is discharged depends on the cross-sectional area of the orifice. Figure 6 shows the two types of orifices. An 8,000-square-foot lot with a house, deck, and driveway using dry -retention swales: N • House 1,600 square feet (800 directly connected and 800 unconnected) • Driveway 650 square feet • Concrete Patio 840 square feet .E Total impervious 3,000 square feet CL Effective Impervious 2,600 square feet Total lot size 8,000 square feet c U Ration of effective impervious area = 37.5 percent.to lot area 0.33% LU Since the impervious area is less than 40 percent of the total lot size, the following equation is used: • Swale volume (cubic feet) = total lot size (square feet) x 0.415-foot required retentionCr S depth (feet) 2 • Swale volume = 8,000 x 0.0415.164 • Swale volume = 332 ft3 = 1,312 cubic feet Assuming a 4:1 (horizontal to vertical) slope for the swales to a 1-foot depth, the cross- .2 sectional area (A) of the Swale is 4.0 square feet. Therefore, the length of the Swale is determined as follows: Length of Swale (feet) = volume (A). Length of Swale = 1,312/4. i Length of Swale = 328 feet. 2 r_ In areas where there is a receiving water body is adjacent to the property, a rectangular c weir should be placed at one end of the Swale for discharge of excess runoff. To reduce the i required length of the Swale opportunities to reduce the directly connected impervious area, replace impervious surfaces with pervious surfaces, and minimize site disturbance could be evaluated. These changes would reduce the required Swale length. 13015-001-01 June 2020 Appendix 6 - Single Family/Duplex Lot Sample Cal Packet Pg. 1785 H.S.b E c c DRAFT N CL L) Appendix 7 Bibliographycr w 2 c 0 Packet Pg. 1786 H.S.b DRAFT APPENDIX 9 - BIBLIOGRAPHY Ammon, D.C.,; W.C.

Stormwater Management — an important element of the siteI E WHY all the fuss, you ask?Here's why... 2 0 Monroe County is home to the Florida Keys, lush islands surrounded by clear, aquamarine waters, and a myriad of 4i underwater wonders. Most of the year,the Keys enjoy a sunny, near-tropical climate, but there comes a rainy 9 season,from May through October. During these months,frequent thunderstorms last from a few minutes to a few days. Heavy seasonal rains cause stormwater to run off commercial and residential rooftops,yards, and streets.This stormwater normally collects in the streets and works its way towards the nearest waterway. While street flooding is CL a temporary nuisance,the pollutants carried in the stormwater create a less visible but longer lasting effect.These pollutants include automobile oil and grease, lawn fertilizers and pesticides, a variety of chemicals from commercial/industrial areas, and silt and floating debris from highways. Continued pollution of Florida's coastal area has severely degraded our most valuable resource,the coral reefs. Pollution also has negatively affected the quality and clarity of our waters. It has reduced our fish and wildlife populations. Cr Stormwater running off into the streets also wastes a valuable resource.After the rainy season come the dry months of November through April. With few exceptions, Monroe County's drinking water comes from the mainland via a single pipeline. In the event of a hurricane, power and this water supply may be discontinued for days. 2 Monroe County has adopted a comprehensive development plan that establishes specific goals for safe CL management and disposal of stormwater and conservation of our water resources.To achieve these goals and to begin reversing the current negative trends,we must significantly reduce the potential pollution from new construction. 76 Our adopted Stormwater Management Ordinance Sec. 114-2 and 114-3 of the Land Development Code establishes y guidelines for the safe management and disposal of stormwater runoff from developed areas.The ordinance is applicable to all developments and requires that all applications for building permits must contain a stormwater i management plan. 0 The guidelines and recommendations in this brochure are designed to help you to address stormwater management d 0 in the site plan for your single family or duplex lot. Sample engineering calculations supporting the guidelines of the 0 brochure are available in the current version of Monroe County's "Manual of Stormwater Management Practices". 2 Packet Pg. 1790 B. Guidelines to prepare r site plan E OKAY, what must 1 do to prepare a site plan for my single family or duplex home? 2 0 In order to prepare a site plan, it is necessary to assess the existing site conditions, evaluate the proposed improvements and make provisions for stormwater management.This process begins with the collection of site- N specific data, by performing a lot survey.The lot survey is then used as a base to locate the proposed improvements and grade the lot in order to control stormwater runoff.The following steps detail the type of data to be collected for the lot survey and the information to be provided in the site plan. CD STEP ONE—SURVEY DRAWING CL Obtain a boundary survey and topographic information (either from survey or LiDAR data)for your lot.The survey must be performed by a professional land surveyor licensed to practice in the State of Florida. The survey drawing must provide this information: a. Legal description of lot. b. Property line dimensions, bearings and/or angles. c. Location of existing improvements,to include adjacent street and waterway(if any). d. Three cross-sections, showing elevations from the street, across lot lines and center of the property. e. Location and identification of existing trees. Cr C f. Location sketch and identification of a nearby Mile Marker g. Scale (1"=10' recommended)and north arrow. h. LiDAR-based elevations may be used if available. STEP TWO—SITE PLAN 2 Prepare a site plan showing the proposed improvements, utilities, site grading and landscaping.The site plan,which must meet the guidelines described later in this brochure, should be prepared at a recommended scale of 1"=10' and provide the following information: 76 a. Locations,dimensions, and types of construction materials of the building, roof, patio, screened porch, deck, �+ shed, pool, driveway, septic tank and drainfield. b. Proposed site grading showing existing and proposed elevations and/or contours. c. Proposed drainage directions and areas draining to each retention system. Site grading must drain towards retention system. d. Locations,dimensions, and types of materials to be used in landscaping features, such as planters,walks, 0 privacy walls,fences,trees and shrubs. U e. A cross-section (elevation view)across the center of the lot showing proposed improvements and site 0) 0 grading. 0 Packet Pg. 1791 C. Guidelines to address stormwater managemenin your site plan E c HOW do 1 address stormwater management in my site plan? Much of Monroe County is beautiful and ecologically sensitive to manmade pollutants, many of which are carried to the ocean by stormwater runoff. Monroe County's objective is to keep the resident coral reef,fish, and animals alive N and healthy,while allowing you to occupy the same bit of Florida paradise.To achieve this objective, Monroe County requires your new home to meet the following design and construction guidelines: CD • Preserve Roadside Swales (Plate 2) 1. Maintain the pervious cover of swales. 2. Preserve existing swale elevations. CL • Reduce Lot Fill (Plate 2) 1. Carefully consider the need to import any fill for the lot. 2. Limit building pad elevations to eight inches above the adjacent roadway. • Flood Protection (Plate 3) 1. Elevate the first habitable floor above the Federal Emergency Management Agency Base Flood Elevation using stilt-construction techniques. • Reduce Impervious Surfaces 1. Use pervious materials, such as gravel, pervious pavers on sand, native grasses,grass-covered porous pavement and wood for the construction of other site and landscaping improvements. Florida-Friendly Landscaping'" is encouraged. Cr 2. Do not place impervious layers, such as roofing paper or plastic under paved or landscaped areas. 0) • Conserve Water(Plate 4&5) 1. Use cisterns to collect roof runoff and recycle for non-potable water uses. 2. Use native plant materials for landscaping. • Reduce Direct Discharges to Waterways (Plate 6) 2 1. Use berms to contain runoff onto adjacent waterways. 2. If your lot has an existing bulkhead, lower the adjacent ground to provide a minimum of 6" difference �- between the finished lot and the top of the bulkhead. • Reduce Discharges to Roadway 1. Use berms to contain runoff from lot onto adjacent roadways. 2. Use traffic rated trench drains across driveways to reduce discharges to the roadway.These trench drains should be drained to an onsite retention area.Trench drains are not needed where the driveway is below or at the same elevation as the roadway Swale. • Calculate required retention volume using the following steps: 1. Determine square feet of impervious area on the site that is directly connected to the proposed retention system (typically this would be an onsite Swale). Directly connected would be any area when stormwater runoff passes over less than 20 feet on pervious area (e.g.grassed or landscaped area) before entering the onsite retention system. Pervious pavers would not be considered an impervious area. U 2. Determine square feet of impervious area on the site that is unconnected to the proposed retention system and has to drain over 20 feet or more of pervious area before entering the retention system.An example of this would be an area of the roof that is drained from a downspout but flows over 20 feet of landscaped c area before reaching the onsite Swale. 3. Calculate the total effective impervious area by summing the directly connected area with half the m unconnected area. 4 Packet Pg. 1792 4. Determine the square feet of lot area that is disturbed during construction.This is any area that is accessibl H 5.c' to construction vehicles or construction staff during construction. Undisturbed areas need to be clearly sig posted and taped off during construction. 5. Calculate the ratio of the effective impervious area to the disturbed area. 6. Use Table 1 below to determine the required retention depth.The effective impervious area to the disturbed area ratio from Step 5 should be rounded to the nearest ratio in Table 1. 7. Determine the required retention volume (cubic feet) by multiplying the required retention depth in feet E (Step 6) by the disturbed area in square feet (Step 4). c 0 Table 1.

If a Swale is not vegetated than a 6-inch layer of nutrient sorption soil amendment formulated to reduce nutrient loading must be installed directly below the Swale.Specifications 0 and published nutrient reduction test results for the media must be provided for County review at the time Ui of permitting. Examples of acceptable media are NutriGoneTM (distributed by EcoSense International)and 0 Bold and Gold° (distributed by Environmental Conservation Solutions). 0 Packet Pg. 1793 If exfiltration trenches or french drains are used on single-family or duplex lots they must meet the following criteri • Minimum of 8 inches of cover. • Use at least a 4 inch or greater perforated pipe.A prefabricated shallow vault or drainage well may be used. • Inlets to exfiltration system must include a fabric filter. • Exfiltration system must not be within 10 feet of a building. • Exfiltration systems cannot be installed under driveways or other areas that may receive frequent vehicular traffic, unless designed by a Florida-registered and -licensed professional engineer. • Bottom of exfiltration system must be more than 12 inches above the wet season water table. Wet season 2 water table can be determined using the USDA Web Soil Survey(hops.//webso'ilsurvey.sc.egov.usda.gov), SoilWeb app available on Android or iPhone devices,or determined by an appropriate Florida-registered and -licensed professional. • Volume of an exfiltration trench in cubic feet can be approximated as:V= L x W x(D—0.96)x 0.4,where L= length in feet,W=average trench width, and D=average trench depth in feet. y CD TOP OF PAVEMENT OR FINISHED GRADE CL SACKFILL OR EMBANKMENT AGG rREGATE FILTER FABRIC LU I BD 0 f� F1 TR � PERF RA � �� _ TREATMENT �FAIR SLOTMD HI I HT PIPE VOLUME � (PTV), Cr a- TRENCH WIDTH � ' RECOVERY IL II ' IL SEASONAL HIGH GROUND WATER TABLE LP(SHGWn CONFINING NIT - I y TYPICAL "DRY" EXFILTRATION TRENCH -SEA Ids Source.Florida Department of Environmental Protection and Water Management Districts Environmental Resource Permit Stormwater Quality Applicant's Handbook(March 2010—Draft) 0 CJ I 0 The following diagrams illustrate the above design and construction guidelines and a sample site plan (Plate 7).

Guidelines for expansion of existing WHAT if 1 just want to expand my home? Any impervious area expansion of existing lot coverage,that is, roofs, decks, patios, pools, and pavements, must provide for the retention of two and half inches of runoff from the expansion area.Typically,this retention requirement can be met by construction of a shallow Swale alongside the expansion's area. However, other CL approaches to retaining stormwater on the site will be considered.The following table shows the proportional ICU stormwater retention storage required for every 25 feet of new impervious area: 76 Provisions for swales must be s ®g shown on the site plans �I submitted with your permit 25 5 application.Just remember, 50 10 you should still follow the steps outlined in this brochure, 75 16 but you don't need to meet all 0 of the design and construction t�l 100 21 criteria required for new 125 26 homes. 150 31 175 36 200 42 12 Packet Pg. 1800 7j Ily ■V rrww s V L O O 'a .a IM O � ;� O 4 _ I= = i E .E ,o O � E 0 O • V = _ E 0m (a O LV L E V a L.
