INTRODUCTION
1.1
Project Description
The project consists of a proposed 100-unit, for sale affordable condominium development
consisting of 46 one-bedroom and 54 two-bedroom homes in a to be constructed 5-story building with
requisite parking and amenities (the “Development”) to be located on lands fronting on Croton Point
Avenue consisting of (i) Tax Map Parcels 79.17-1-5 & 3 owned by the Village (“Lot A”); and (ii) Tax
Map Parcel 79.17-1-3 owned by Croton Point Realty Inc (the “CPR Parcel”). Lot A is currently in use
as a Village commuter parking lot. The CPR Parcel is improved with an office building which is
proposed to be demolished for the Development.
The proposed brick and metal panel building will be served by 100 parking spaces to be
located in a below grade parking level and two outdoor parking areas, including five (5) Level 2 EV
charging stations. Amenities within the building will include a community room, a fitness center, a co-
working lounge, a bike storage room and a roof-top deck providing expansive scenic views
overlooking Croton Point Bay and the Hudson River.
Sustainable building design features will likely include full electrification, solar readiness, high
efficiency HVAC equipment (cold climate air source heat pumps) and appliances (Energy Star
Multifamily New Construction Program) and low-flow water fixtures.
In total the property consist of 1.8 ± acres and is located in the LI (Light Industrial with a
Transoriented Development Overlay) zoning district, the Village of Corton-on-Hudson Water District
and the Ossining Sanitary Sewer District.
1.2
Existing Site Conditions
The subject project is located on Croton Point Avenue across from Veterans Plaza in the
Village of Croton-On-Hudson. As previously stated, the site currently exists as a commercial
development with several buildings, parking areas, walkways, and other appurtenances. The
stormwater runoff from the existing property generally drains from a high point in the center of the
property north and south towards the existing drain inlets and their collection system, which discharge
to the west and east respectively. The northern drain inlet flows west onto MTA property and the
southern drain inlet flows east onto NYSDOT property.
The two drain inlets discussed above have been designed as Design Points for the purpose of
stormwater quantity analysis contained herein, and are shown on Figures 2 and 3. Design Point 1
represents the existing drainage structure at the corner of Croton Point Avenue and NYS Route 9 that
flows east. Design Point 2 represents the drainage structure that is part of the existing collection
system that discharges west towards the Metro North Railroad property.
Onsite soils belong to the Hydrologic Group B. Pursuant to the National Resource Conservation
Service Web Soil Survey, the soil designations of the onsite soils consist of Urban land (Uf) and
Udorthents (Ub). The soil boundaries are shown on the enclosed pre- and post-development
drainage figures, Figures 2 and 3 of this report.
It is proposed to construct a 21,500 sf ± (footprint area) affordable condominum with associated
parking and various site appurtenances. The new five-story building will contain one hundred
apartments. There will be 46 one-bedroom apartments and 54 two-bedroom apartments. Amenity
spaces will also be constructed which will be used by the residents of the building only.
This project is a redevelopment project with an overall decrease in impervious area. The
project results in a net decrease of 0.1 acres +/-.
It is proposed to maintain the overall drainage boundaries to the maximum extent practicable and
tie into the existing onsite collection system in the proposed condition. New drainage structures will
capture the runoff from the redeveloped site and will discharge into the hydrodynamic separators for
treatment of the new impervious areas. The intent is to capture and treat the stormwater runoff from the
redeveloped area of the site and treat it in accordance with the NYSDEC standards for quality and
quantity prior to discharging to the existing stormwater collection systems, such there is no impact to the
surrounding stormwater design. Two hydrodynamic separators are proposed in total, one tributary to
each design point.
As shown in the following sections of this report, the stormwater quality and quantity for the
proposed development have been treated in accordance with the requirements of the General Permit,
GP-0-20-001. Additionally, an erosion and sediment control plan has been prepared in accordance
with the New York State Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control (Blue Book)
to protect the existing waterbodies and drainage features during construction activities.
2.0
STORMWATER MANAGEMENT
The proposed stormwater management system for the project has been designed to meet the
requirements of the state stormwater ordinances and guidelines, including but not limited to those of the
NYSDEC.
Since the subject project proposes the disturbance of more than one (1) acre, coverage under the New
York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) SPDES General Permit No. GP-0-20-001
(General Permit) is required. Chapter 4 of the NYSSMDM specifies five design criteria that are Water Quality
Volume (WQv), Runoff Reduction Volume (RRv), Stream Channel Protection Volume (CPv), Overbank Flood
Control (Qp), and Extreme Storm Control (Qf). The first two of these requirements relates to treating water
quality, while the later pertain to stormwater quantity (peak flow) attenuation. As noted in previous sections of
this report, this project is a redevelopment project with an increase in impervious area. As such the RRv
requirements and CPv requirements are not required. Per Chapter 9, 25% of the existing impervious area
within the subcatchments is required to be treated to meet the WQv requirements for redevelopment
projects. As will be shown in in the final project SWPPP 25% of the existing impervious areas will be used to
account for the WQv sizing of the Hydrodynamic Separators.
To meet the above referenced requirements, the following post construction stormwater management
practices are proposed for the project:
HDS 1.1
Hydrodynamic Separator (Alt. Practice)
WQv
HDS 2.1
Hydrodynamic Separator (Alt. Practice)
WQv
Sizing calculations for the hydrodynamic separators have been provided in Appendix A. Information
regarding the sizing and maintenance of the proposed hydrodynamic separators can be in Appendix F. As
noted above the hydrodynamic separators result in treatment of the entire site and will be sized to treat the
WQv peak flow as required by Chapter 9.
To address stormwater quantity requirements of the NYSDEC, the “HydroCAD” Stormwater Modeling
System,” by HydroCAD Software Solutions LLC in Tamworth, New Hampshire, was used to model and
assess the peak stormwater flows for the subject project. HydroCAD is a computer aided design program for
modeling the hydrology and hydraulics of stormwater runoff. It is based primarily on hydrology techniques
developed by the United States Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service (USDA, SCS) TR-20

method combined with standard hydraulic calculations. For details on the input data for the subcatchments
and design storms, please refer to Appendices B and C.
The input requirements for the HydroCAD computer program are as follows:
•
Design storm rainfall in inches
•
CN (runoff curve number) values which are based on soil type and land use/ground cover
•
Tc (time of concentration) flow path information
•
Watershed Area in Acres
Stormwater Basins
•
Surface area at appropriate elevations
•
Flood elevation
•
Outlet structure information
The following is a general description of the input data used to calculate the pre- and post-
development stormwater runoff values. For detailed information for each subcatchment and stormwater
management practice, see Appendices B & C. The 1-year, 10-year, and 100-year 24-hour design storm
were obtained from the New York State Stormwater Management Design Manual. The values provided are
for 24-hour design storms.

The CN (runoff curve number) values utilized in this report were referenced from the USDA, SCS
publication Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds. The following is a summary of the various land
uses/ground covers and their associated CN values utilized in this report.
Table 2.0.2 – Project Ground Cover and Associated Curve Numbers (CN)
2.1
NYSDEC Runoff Reduction Volume, RRv
The Runoff Reduction Volume (RRv) criterion is intended to replicate pre-development
hydrology by maintaining preconstruction infiltration, peak flow runoff, discharge volume, as well as
minimizing concentrated stormwater flow. As noted above, meeting the Runoff Reduction Volume
(RRv) sizing criteria is not required for redevelopment projects with a reduction in overall impervious
cover.
2.2
NYSDEC Water Quality Volume, WQv
The stormwater management practice has been designed in accordance with the Water Quality
Volume (WQv) Section (Chapter 4.2) of the NYSSMDM. As outlined in Chapter 4.2, the WQv is the
runoff volume generated from the entire 90th percentile rain event. As previously stated, partitions of
1 Croton Point — SWPPP
SWPPP24154.doc
Insite Engineering, Surveying & Landscape Architecture, P.C.
the proposed impervious surfaces will overlap existing impervious surfaces within the site area. As
stated in Chapter 9 of the NYSSMDM only 25% of existing impervious (redevelopment) and 100% of
new impervious surfaces within the proposed subcatchment require treatment. The proposed
hydrodynamic separators (HDS 1.1 & HDS 2.1) has been designed to treat the WQv in accordance
with the NYSSMDM. In Appendix A of this report the calculation for the WQv to be treated.
The following equation, per Chapter 4.2 and Chapter 9, was used to determine the water
quality volume for the 90% storm each of the contributing areas to the treatment practices:
The water quality volume shall be: WQv = (P)( Rv,e)(Ae) x 25% + (P)(Rv,p)(Ap)
12 12
Where,
WQv
= water quality volume (in acre-feet)
P
= 90% Rainfall Event Number = 1.4 inches
Rv,e
= 0.05 + 0.009(I), where I is percent impervious cover = 0.95
A = Subcatchment Area
Ae
= Existing Impervious Area to be Redeveloped
Ap
= Proposed Impervious Area
Ai
= Total Impervious Area
I
= (Ap)/(A-Ae)
Rv,p
= 0.05 +0.009 (I%)
Table 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 below summarizes the WQv treatment and Required Elements for the
proposed Hydrodyanmic Separator (HDS 2.1). The hydrodynamic separator has been designed in
accordance with the Chapter 9 of the Design Manual for an alternative practice. As stated in Chapter
9 of the Design Manual, flow through alternative practices must be sized for the peak rate of runoff
from the WQv design storm, as defined Chapter 4. The table below summarizes the required and
provided WQv treatment rates. See Appendix A and F for more sizing information.

It should be noted that the above tables illustrate the water quality volume storage requirements
set forth in the NYSSWDM have been met for the Hydrodynamic Separators (HDS 1.1 & HDS 2.1). By
meeting the Water Quality Volume requirements through employment of an alternative practice, the
water quality objectives of the NYSDEC to treat the water quality volume will be met.
2.3
NYSDEC Stream Channel Protection Volume, CPv
The Stream Channel Protection (CPv) criterion is intended to protect stream channels from
erosion and is accomplished by the 24-hour extended detention of the center-of-mass of the one-
year, 24-hour storm event. As per the NYSSWDM Chapter 9, if the post-construction 1-year 24 hour
discharge rate and velocities are less than or equal to the pre-construction design rate, providing 24
hours detention of the 1 year storm to meet CPv criteria is not required. Table 2.3.1 below
summarizes the peak flows discharging for the 1-Year 24-Hour design storm and demonstrates that
the 1-Year 24-Hour post development rate is less than the predevelopment rate.

2.1
The data for the table above was taken from Appendix B & C of this SWPPP. As shown in the table above
the peak flows discharging to the design point have beem mitigated for the 1-Year 24-Hour Storm. By
providing a reduction in peak flows during the 1-Year, 24-hour storm, the NYSDEC requirements for Stream
Channel Protection (Cpv) have been met.
The Overbank Flood Control (Qp) requirement is intended to prevent an increase in the
frequency and magnitude of out-of-bank flooding events generated by urban development. Overbank
control requires storage to attenuate the post-development 10-year, 24-hour peak discharge to pre-
development rates. The Extreme Flood Control (Qf) requirement is intended to prevent the increased
risk of flood damage from large storm events, maintain the boundaries of the pre-development 100-
year flood plain, and protect the physical integrity of stormwater management practices. Extreme
flood control requires storage to attenuate the post-development 100-year, 24-hour peak discharge to
pre-development rates. As shown in Table 2.4.1 attenuation for both the 10-year and 100-year 24-
hour storms has been provided thus satisfying the Qp and Qf requirements.

As shown in the above table the peak flows discharging to the design point in the proposed
condition have been mitigated to below the existing condition levels, therefore the receiving
downstream drainage systems will see a reduction in peak flows during the storm events shown
above and as such satisfy the Overbank and Extreme Overbank Flood Control requirements.
3.0
STORMWATER CONVEYANCE SYSTEM
The stormwater collection and conveyance systems for the project will consist of catch basins, drain
inlets, yard drains, and HDPE pipe. The pipe conveyance system will be sized to collect and convey at
minimum the 25-year, 1-hour design storm using the Rational Method. The Rational Method is a standard
method used by engineers to develop flow rates for sizing collection systems. The Rational Method calculates
flows based on a one-hour design storm. Pipe sizing calculations will be provided in future reports.
4.0
EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL
Erosion and sediment control should be accomplished by four basic principles: diversion of clean water,
containment of sediment, treatment of dirty water, and stabilization of disturbed areas. Diversion of clean
water should be accomplished with swales. This diverted water should be safely conveyed around the
construction area as necessary and discharged downstream of the disturbed areas. Sediment should be
contained with the use of silt fence at the toe of disturbed slopes and excavation of the temporary sediment
basin. Disturbed areas should be permanently stabilized within 14 days of final grading to limit the required
1 Croton Point — SWPPP
SWPPP24154.doc
Insite Engineering, Surveying & Landscape Architecture, P.C.
length of time that the temporary facilities must be utilized. The owner will be responsible for the maintenance
of the temporary erosion control facilities.
4.1
Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control Facilities
Temporary erosion and sediment control facilities should be installed and maintained as required
to reduce the impacts to off-site properties. The owner will be required to provide maintenance for the
temporary erosion and sediment control facilities. In general, the following temporary methods and
materials should be used to control erosion and sedimentation from the project site:
A stabilized construction entrance should be installed at the entrance to the site. The design
drawings will include details to guide the contractor in the construction of this entrance. The intent of
the stabilized construction entrance is to prevent the “tracking” of soil from the site. Dust control should
be accomplished with water sprinkling trucks if required. During dry periods, sprinkler trucks should wet
all exposed earth surfaces as required to prevent the transport of air-borne particles to adjoining areas.
Siltation barriers constructed of geosynthetic filter cloth should be installed at the toe of all disturbed
slopes. The intent of these barriers is to contain silt and sediment at the source and inhibit its transport by
stormwater runoff. The siltation barriers will also help reduce the rate of runoff by creating filters through
which the stormwater must pass.
Storm drain inlet protection in the form of stone drop inlet protection will be installed around all
proposed inlets. The stone drop inlet protection will serve to filter stormwater runoff before it enters the
collection system. Throughout construction the concrete drainage structures, associated piping and inlet
protections shall be inspected weekly and after a rainfall event. These items shall be cleaned, repaired
and/or replaced when needed.
4.2
Permanent Erosion and Sediment Control Facilities
Permanent erosion and sediment control will be accomplished by diverting stormwater runoff
from steep slopes, controlling/reducing stormwater runoff velocities and volumes, and vegetative and
structural surface stabilization. All of the permanent facilities are relatively maintenance free and only
require periodic inspections. The owner will provide maintenance for all the permanent erosion and
sediment control facilities.
Other than the buildings and paved surfaces, disturbed surfaces will be stabilized with
vegetation. The vegetation will control stormwater runoff by preventing soil erosion, reducing runoff
volume and velocities, and providing a filter medium. Permanent seeding should optimally be
undertaken in the spring from March 21st through May 20th and in late summer from August 15th to
October 15th.
5.0
IMPLEMENTATION, MAINTENANCE & GENERAL HOUSEKEEPING
5.1
Construction Phase
Details associated with the implementation and maintenance of the proposed stormwater
facilities and erosion control measures during construction are shown on the project drawings. A
construction sequence has been provided to guide the contractor in the installation of the erosion
control measures as well as the site plan features. The erosion control plan, includes associated
details and notes to aid the contractor in implementing the plan.
During construction, a Site Log Book, Appendix E, is required to be kept per NYSDEC SPDES
General Permit GP-0-20-001. Erosion and sediment control inspections are required to be conducted
1 Croton Point — SWPPP
SWPPP24154.doc
Insite Engineering, Surveying & Landscape Architecture, P.C.
as necessary under coverage of the permit (minimum once a week, two times a week should the
overall disturbance exceed five acres) and an updated logbook and a copy of the SWPPP is required
to be kept on site for the duration of the construction activities. The Construction Site Log Book is an
appendix taken from the New York Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control (Blue
Book).
In addition to the proposed erosion and sediment control facilities, the following good
housekeeping best management practices shall be implemented to mitigate potential pollution during
the construction phase of the project. The general contractor overseeing the day-to-day site operation
shall be responsible for the good housekeeping best management practices included in the following
general categories:
•
Material Handling and Waste Management
•
Establishment of Building Material Staging Areas
•
Establishment of Washout Areas
•
Proper Equipment Fueling and Maintenance Practices
•
Spill Prevention and Control Plan
All construction waste materials shall be collected and removed from the site regularly by the general
contractor. The general contractor shall supply waste barrels for proper disposal of waste materials. All
personnel working on the site shall be instructed of the proper procedures for construction waste disposal.
Although it is not anticipated any hazardous waste materials will be utilized during construction, any
hazardous waste materials shall be disposed of in accordance with federal, state, and local regulations. No
hazardous waste shall be disposed of on-site. Hazardous waste materials shall be stored in appropriate and
clearly marked containers and segregated from the other non-waste materials. All hazardous waste shall be
stored in structurally sound and sealed shipping containers located in the staging areas. Material safety data
sheets, material inventory, and emergency contact numbers will be maintained in the office trailer. All
personnel working on the site shall be instructed of the proper procedures for hazardous waste disposal.
Temporary sanitary facilities (portable toilets) shall be provided on site during the entire length of
construction. The sanitary facilities shall be located in an alternate area away from the construction activities
on the site. The portable toilets shall be inspected weekly for evidence of leaking holding tanks.
All recyclables, including wood pallets, cardboard boxes, and all other recyclable construction scraps
shall be disposed of in a designated recycling barrel provided by the contractor and removed from the site
regularly. All personnel working on the site shall be instructed of the proper procedures for construction
waste recycling.
All construction equipment and maintenance materials shall be stored in a designated staging area.
Silt fence shall be installed down gradient of the construction staging area. Shipping containers shall be
utilized to store hand tools, small parts, and other construction materials, not taken off site daily. Construction
waste barrels, recycling barrels and if necessary hazardous waste containers shall be located within the
limits of the construction staging area.
Throughout the construction of the project, several types of vehicles and equipment will be used on-
site. Fueling of the equipment shall occur within the limits of the construction staging area. Fuel will be
delivered to the site as needed, by the general contractor, or a party chosen by the general contractor. Only
minor vehicle equipment maintenance shall occur on-site, all major maintenance shall be performed off-site.
All equipment fluids generated from minor maintenance activities shall be disposed of into designated drums
and stored in accordance with the hazardous waste storage as previously discussed.
Vehicles and equipment shall be inspected on each day of use. Any leak discovered shall be repaired
immediately. All leaking equipment unable to be repaired shall be removed from the site. Ample supplies of
absorbent, spill-cleanup materials, and spill kits shall be located in the construction staging area. All spills
shall be cleaned up immediately upon discovery. Spent absorbent materials and rags shall be hauled off-site
1 Croton Point — SWPPP
SWPPP24154.doc
Insite Engineering, Surveying & Landscape Architecture, P.C.
immediately after the spill is cleaned for disposal at a local landfill. All personnel working on the site shall be
instructed of the proper procedures for spill prevention and control.
During the construction phase of the project the subsurface infiltration system shall be cordoned off
with construction fence to prevent undue compaction of the surrounding soils. The infiltration areas shall not
be allowed to receive runoff until the contributing area to the system is completely stabilized in accordance
with the erosion and sediment control notes on the project drawings. Installation of the system after the
contributing area is stable will help to prevent any sediment from entering the SMP.
5.2
Long Term Maintenance Plan
Each spring the paved areas should be cleaned to remove the winter’s accumulation of traction
sand. After this is completed, all drain inlets sumps and the stormwater basins should be cleaned.
All pipes should be checked for debris and blockages and cleaned as required. During the cleaning
process, the drain inlets, catch basins, and pipes should be inspected for structural integrity and
overall condition; repairs and/or replacement will be made as required.
The stormwater facilities for the subject project have been designed to minimize the required
maintenance. This section discusses the minimum maintenance requirements to insure long-term
performance of the stormwater facilities. Initially the stormwater facilities will require an increased
maintenance and inspection schedule until all portions of the site are stable. Generally, the stormwater
facilities consist of either collection and conveyance components or treatment components.
The stormwater collection and conveyance system is composed of HDPE, drainage pipe and
precast concrete drainage structures. The owner will assume the maintenance responsibilities for the
drainage system. Minimal maintenance is typically required for these facilities. All pipes should be
checked for debris and blockages and cleaned as required. All drain inlet sumps shall be cleaned to
removed deposited sediment. During the cleaning process, the pipes should be inspected for structural
integrity and overall condition; repairs and/or replacement should be made as required.
Additionally, the hydrodynamic separators shall be checked for deposited sediment. Visual
inspection of the bioretention filter shall take place after major storm events. Visual inspection of the
hydrodynamic separator shall take place yearly.

ment of construction2 and certify in this inspection report that the appropriate erosion and sediment controls
described in the SWPPP have been adequately installed or implemented to ensure overall preparedness of
the site for the commencement of construction.
Prior to the commencement of construction, the Operator shall certify in this site logbook that the SWPPP
has been prepared in accordance with the State’s standards and meets all Federal, State and local erosion
and sediment control requirements. A preconstruction meeting should be held to review all of the SWPPP
requirements with construction personnel.
When construction starts, site inspections shall be conducted by the qualified inspector at least every 7 cal-
endar days. The Operator shall maintain a record of all inspection reports in this site logbook. The site log-
book shall be maintained on site and be made available to the permitting authorities upon request.
Prior to filing the Notice of Termination or the end of permit term, the Operator shall have a qualified in-
spector perform a final site inspection. The qualified inspector shall certify that the site has undergone final
stabilization3 using either vegetative or structural stabilization methods and that all temporary erosion and
sediment controls (such as silt fencing) not needed for long-term erosion control have been removed. In
addition, the Operator must identify and certify that all permanent structures described in the SWPPP have
been constructed and provide the owner(s) with an operation and maintenance plan that ensures the struc-
ture(s) continuously functions as designed.

Re:
First Defense® Optimum Vortex Separator by Hydro International
Online Installation
TSS Removal Rate 50%
Dear Mr. Fink:
The Stormwater Management rules under N.J.A.C. 7:8-5.2(f) and 5.2(j) allow the use of manufactured
treatment devices (MTDs) for compliance with the design and performance standards at N.J.A.C. 7:8-5 if
the pollutant removal rates have been verified by the New Jersey Corporation for Advanced Technology
(NJCAT) and have been certified by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP).
Bio Clean Environmental, Inc. has requested an MTD Laboratory Certification for the First Defense®
Optimum Vortex Separator (FD Optimum).
The project falls under the “Procedure for Obtaining Verification of a Stormwater Manufactured Treatment
Device from New Jersey Corporation for Advance Technology” dated January 25, 2013. The applicable
protocol is the “New Jersey Laboratory Testing Protocol to Assess Total Suspended Solids Removal by a
Hydrodynamic Sedimentation Manufactured Treatment Device” dated January 25, 2013.
NJCAT verification documents submitted to the NJDEP indicate that the requirements of the protocol have
been met or exceeded. The NJCAT letter also included a recommended certification TSS removal rate and
the required maintenance plan. The NJCAT Verification Report dated June 2021 with the Verification
Appendix for this device is published online at http://www.njcat.org/verification-process/technology-
verification-database.html.
The NJDEP certifies the use of the First Defense® Optimum Vortex Separator by Hydro
International at a TSS removal rate of 50% when designed, operated and maintained in accordance
with the information provided in the Verification Appendix and the following conditions:
1. The maximum treatment flow rate (MTFR) for the manufactured treatment device (MTD) is
calculated using the New Jersey Water Quality Design Storm (1.25 inches in 2 hrs) in N.J.A.C. 7:8-
5.5.
2. The FD Optimum shall be installed using the same configuration reviewed by NJCAT and shall be
sized in accordance with the criteria specified in in item 6 below.
3. This FD Optimum cannot be used in series with another MTD or a media filter (such as a sand
filter), to achieve an enhanced removal rate for total suspended solids (TSS) removal under
N.J.A.C. 7:8-5.5.
4. Additional design criteria for MTDs can be found in Chapter 11.3 of the New Jersey Stormwater
Best Management Practices (NJ Stormwater BMP) Manual which can be found online at
www.njstormwater.org.
5. The maintenance plan for a site using this device shall incorporate, at a minimum, the maintenance
requirements for the FD Optimum, which is attached to this document. However, it is
recommended to review the maintenance manual at https://www.hydro-int.com/en/resources/first-
defense-operations-maintenance-manual for any changes to the maintenance requirements.
The example below demonstrates the sizing procedure for the FD Optimum:
A 0.25-acre impervious site is to be treated to 50% TSS removal using a FD
Optimum. The impervious site runoff (Q) based on the New Jersey Water
Quality Design Storm was determined to be 0.79 cfs.
The site runoff (Q) was based on the following:
time of concentration = 10 minutes
i=3.2 in/hr (page 21, Fig. 5-10 of Chapter 5 of the NJ Stormwater BMP Manual)
c=0.99 (curve number for impervious)
Q=ciA=0.99x3.2x0.25=0.79 cfs
Given the site runoff is 0.79 cfs and based on Table 1 below, the FD Optimum 3-ft model with a
MTFR of 1.02 cfs would be the smallest model approved that could be used for this site that could
remove 50% of the TSS from the impervious area without exceeding the MTFR.
The sizing table corresponding to the available system models is noted below. Additional
specifications regarding each model can be found in the Verification Appendix under Table A-1
and Table A-2.

Be advised a detailed maintenance plan is mandatory for any project with a Stormwater BMP subject to the
Stormwater Management Rules, N.J.A.C. 7:8. The plan must include all the items identified in the
Stormwater Management Rules, N.J.A.C. 7:8-5.8. Such items include, but are not limited to, the list of
inspection and maintenance equipment and tools, specific corrective and preventative maintenance tasks,
indication of problems in the system, and training of maintenance personnel. Additional information can
be found in Chapter 8: Maintenance and Retrofit of Stormwater Management Measures.

Page | 3
Introduction
The First Defense® is an enhanced vortex separator that
combines an effective and economical stormwater treatment
chamber with an integral peak flow bypass. It efficiently removes
total suspended solids (TSS), trash and hydrocarbons from
stormwater runoff without washing out previously captured
pollutants. The First Defense® is available in several model
configurations to accommodate a wide range of pipe sizes,
peak flows and depth constraints.
The two product models described in this guide are the First
Defense® High Capacity and the First Defense® Optimum;
they are inspected and maintained identically.
The First Defense® operates on simple fluid hydraulics. It is self-
activating, has no moving parts, no external power requirement
and is fabricated with durable non-corrosive components.
No manual procedures are required to operate the unit and
maintenance is limited to monitoring accumulations of stored
pollutants and periodic clean-outs. The First Defense® has
been designed to allow for easy and safe access for inspection,
monitoring and clean-out procedures. Neither entry into the
unit nor removal of the internal components is necessary for
maintenance, thus safety concerns related to confined-space-
entry are avoided.
The internal components of the First Defense® have been
designed to optimize pollutant capture. Sediment is captured
and retained in the base of the unit, while oil and floatables
are stored on the water surface in the inner volume (Fig.1).
The pollutant storage volumes are isolated from the built-in
bypass chamber to prevent washout during high-flow storm
events. The sump of the First Defense® retains a standing
water level between storm events. This ensures a quiescent
flow regime at the onset of a storm, preventing resuspension
and washout of pollutants captured during previous events.
Accessories such as oil absorbent pads are available for
enhanced oil removal and storage. Due to the separation
of the oil and floatable storage volume from the outlet, the
potential for washout of stored pollutants between clean-outs
is minimized.
• Inlet options include surface grate or multiple inlet pipes
• Integral high capacity bypass conveys large peak flows without
the need for “offline” arrangements using separate junction
manholes
• Long flow path through the device ensures a long residence
time within the treatment chamber, enhancing pollutant settling
• Delivered to site pre-assembled and ready for installation
Advantages
• Stormwater treatment at the point of entry into the drainage line
• Sites constrained by space, topography or drainage profiles
with limited slope and depth of cover
• Retrofit installations where stormwater treatment is placed on or
tied into an existing storm drain line
• Pretreatment for filters, infiltration and storage

Overview
The First Defense® protects the environment by removing a wide range of pollutants from stormwater runoff. Periodic removal of
these captured pollutants is essential to the continuous, long-term functioning of the First Defense®. The First Defense® will capture
and retain sediment and oil until the sediment and oil storage volumes are full to capacity. When sediment and oil storage capacities
are reached, the First Defense® will no longer be able to store removed sediment and oil.
The First Defense® allows for easy and safe inspection, monitoring and clean-out procedures. A commercially or municipally owned
sump-vac is used to remove captured sediment and floatables. Access ports are located in the top of the manhole.
Maintenance events may include Inspection, Oil & Floatables Removal, and Sediment Removal. Maintenance events do not require
entry into the First Defense®, nor do they require the internal components of the First Defense® to be removed. In the case of
inspection and floatables removal, a vactor truck is not required. However, a vactor truck is required if the maintenance event is to
include oil removal and/or sediment removal.
The internal components of the First Defense® have a centrally located circular shaft through which the sediment storage sump can
be accessed with a sump vac hose. The open diameter of this access shaft is 15 inches in diameter (Fig.3). Therefore, the nozzle
fitting of any vactor hose used for maintenance should be less than 15 inches in diameter.
The frequency of clean out is determined in the field after installation. During the first year of operation, the unit should be inspected
every six months to determine the rate of sediment and floatables accumulation. A simple probe such as a Sludge-Judge® can be
used to determine the level of accumulated solids stored in the sump. This information can be recorded in the maintenance log (see
page 9) to establish a routine maintenance schedule.
The vactor procedure, including both sediment and oil / flotables removal, for First Defense® typically takes less than 30 minutes and
removes a combined water/oil volume of about 765 gallons.
Fig.3 The central opening to the sump of the First Defense®is 15 inches in diameter.

Inspection Procedures
1. Set up any necessary safety equipment around the access
port or grate of the First Defense® as stipulated by
local ordinances. Safety equipment should notify passing
pedestrian and road traffic that work is being done.
2. Remove the grate or lid to the manhole.
3. Without entering the vessel, look down into the chamber to
inspect the inside. Make note of any irregularities. Fig.4
shows the standing water level that should be observed.
4. Without entering the vessel, use the pole with the skimmer net
to remove floatables and loose debris from the components
and water surface.
5. Using a sediment probe such as a Sludge Judge®, measure
the depth of sediment that has collected in the sump of the
vessel.
6. On the Maintenance Log (see page 9), record the date, unit
location, estimated volume of floatables and gross debris
removed, and the depth of sediment measured. Also note
any apparent irregularities such as damaged components or
blockages.
7. Securely replace the grate or lid.
8. Take down safety equipment.
9. Notify Hydro International of any irregularities noted during
inspection.
Floatables clean out is typically done in conjunction with
sediment removal. A commercially or municipally owned sump-
vac is used to remove captured sediment and floatables (Fig.4).
Floatables and loose debris can also be netted with a skimmer
and pole. The access port located at the top of the manhole
provides unobstructed access for a vactor hose to be lowered to
the base of the sump.
• Floatables and sump clean out are typically conducted once
a year during any season.
• Floatables and sump clean out should occur as soon as
possible following a spill in the contributing drainage area.
• Safety Equipment (traffic cones, etc)
• Crow bar or other tool to remove grate or lid
• Pole with skimmer or net (if only floatables are being removed)
• Sediment probe (such as a Sludge Judge®)
• Vactor truck (flexible hose recommended)
• First Defense® Maintenance Log

Floatables and Sediment Clean Out Procedures
1. Set up any necessary safety equipment around the access
port or grate of the First Defense® as stipulated by
local ordinances. Safety equipment should notify passing
pedestrian and road traffic that work is being done.
2. Remove the grate or lid to the manhole.
3. Without entering the vessel, look down into the chamber to
inspect the inside. Make note of any irregularities.
4. Remove oil and floatables stored on the surface of the water
with the vactor hose or with the skimmer or net
5. Using a sediment probe such as a Sludge Judge®, measure
the depth of sediment that has collected in the sump of the
vessel and record it in the Maintenance Log (page 9).
6. Once all floatables have been removed, drop the vactor hose
to the base of the sump. Vactor out the sediment and gross
debris off the sump floor
7. Retract the vactor hose from the vessel.
8. On the Maintenance Log provided by Hydro International,
record the date, unit location, estimated volume of floatables
and gross debris removed, and the depth of sediment
measured. Also note any apparent irregularities such as
damaged components, blockages, or irregularly high or low
water levels.
9. Securely replace the grate or lid.
- Every 6 months after the first year of installation
- Once per year, with sediment removal
- Following a spill in the drainage area
- Once per year or as needed
- Following a spill in the drainage area

Maintenance at a Glance
NOTE: For most clean outs the entire volume of liquid does not need to be removed from the manhole. Only remove the
first few inches of oils and floatables from the water surface to reduce the total volume of liquid removed during a clean out.
