    ADOPTED REPORT 811

  • 1.0 INTRODUCTION

    1.1 Background Knobel Consulting Pty Ltd has been commissioned by Ventura Hwy Pty Ltd to prepare a Conceptual Stormwater Management Plan (CSWMP) to support a Development Application for the Proposed Residential Development at 46 & 48 Ventura Road and 2523 Gold Coast Highway, Mermaid Beach. The subject site is described as Lots 56, 57 & 58 on RP43454 and has a total area of 1222 m2.

    1.2 Scope/Objectives This CSWMP details the conceptual planning, layout and design of the stormwater management infrastructure for both the construction and operational phases of this development. This CSWMP aims to: Establish the required performance criteria for the proposed stormwater quantity and quality

    improvement systems;

    Provide a design of stormwater infrastructure including stormwater quality improvement devices and stormwater quantity management controls;

    Ensure the quality of stormwater discharging from the proposed development does not adversely impact on the water quality and ecological values of downstream watercourses;

    Ensure stormwater runoff is conveyed through the site to a lawful point of discharge in accordance with QUDM and Council’s Land Development Guidelines; and

    Provide reporting and monitoring mechanisms whereby the performance of this system can be measured enabling identification of corrective actions/alterations required to ensure the above mentioned objectives are maintained.

    This CSWMP has been prepared in accordance with the IEAust, (National Committee on Water Engineering), Australian Runoff Quality (Draft), The City of the Gold Coast, SC6.9 City Plan policy - Land Development Guidelines, Queensland Urban Drainage Manual (QUDM) and The City of the Gold Coast, SC6.9.3 Water Sensitive Urban Design.

    1.3 Description of the Subject Site

    1.3.1 Location

    The subject site is located at 46 & 48 Ventura Road in the suburb of Mermaid Beach and is shown in Figure 1 below.

    745th Council Meeting 31 October 2017 City Planning Committee Meeting 25 October 2017

    ADOPTED REPORT 812

  • Figure 1: Site Location Plan (Modified From www.maps.Google.com)

    1.4 Site Topography The subject site is relatively flat with varying spot heights. From review of the surveyed spot heights and the layout of the existing structures it is evident that the subject site will discharge stormwater towards the road verges of Ventura Road and the Gold Coast Highway. Ground levels on the site range from 5.91 m AHD in the north-western corner of the site to 5.43 m AHD in the north-east corner of the site. For further details refer to Bennett and Bennett, Plan of Detail Survey of Lots 56 – 58 on RP43454 (Ref: 161095_001_DET_A) included as Appendix A.

    1.5 Vegetation and Land Use The subject site currently consists of a multi-storey dwelling complex, carpark, shed, a pool, paved areas and garden areas. A current aerial photograph of the subject site is included as Figure 2 below.

    ADOPTED REPORT 814

  • 2.0 HYDROLOGY AND HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS

    2.1 Background In order to estimate the contributing peak discharge for a range of ARI events the rational method has been applied to define flow rates at and through the subject site. The Rational Method (Section 4.03 of the Queensland Urban Drainage Manual - QUDM 2008) is flexible in its data requirements and is able to produce satisfactory estimates of peak site discharges based on the following data input: specific intensity frequency duration (IFD) data;

    length/type of flowpath;

    contributing catchment areas; and

    coefficient of discharge.

    2.2 Pre Development

    2.2.1 Catchment Definition and Lawful Point of Discharge The subject site currently consists of a single internal catchment that discharges to the roadside kerbs along Ventura Road and the Gold Coast Highway. The roadside kerbs of Ventura Road and the Gold Coast Highway represent the subject site’s Lawful Points of Discharge (LPOD). The pre development Catchment A and lawful points of discharge are shown on Knobel Consulting Pty Ltd, Pre Development Catchment Plan (Ref: K3820/P001/A) include in Appendix C.

    2.2.2 Coefficient of Runoff The pre development coefficient of runoff (C year) was determined based on fraction impervious (fi) method as specified in QUDM. The subject site has a total impervious area of 997 m2 which equates to a fraction impervious value of 0.82. Using a one hour, ten year rainfall intensity (1I10) of 76.2 mm/hr, a C10 value of 0.86 has been adopted for the pre development scenario.

    With reference to QUDM Table 4.05.2, applying the frequency factors for the standard storms of 2, 10, 20 and 100 years results in the following pre development coefficients of runoff as shown in Table 2. Table 2: Pre Development Coefficient of Runoff

    C2 C10 C20 C100

    0.73 0.86 0.90 1.00

    2.2.3 Time of Concentration The pre development time of concentration will incorporate five minutes of roof to ground time plus one minute of pipe/overland flow. This equates to a total travel time of six minutes to LPOD.

    2.2.4 Design Flow Rates Design storm flow rates have been calculated for standard storms with an ARI of 2, 10, 20 and 100 years for the pre development case using design rainfall intensities from The City of the Gold Coast’s Land Development Guidelines. The Rational Method (Q = 2.78 x 10-3 CIA) has been used to calculate the required design flow rates for the subject site. The calculated pre development peak flows for this subject site are presented in Table 3.

    2.3 Post Development

    2.3.1 Catchment Definition and Lawful Point of Discharge The post development case will be analysed as a single catchment discharging to the roadside kerbs along Ventura Road and the Gold Coast Highway, which represents the sites lawful points of discharge (LPODs). The catchment area and lawful points of discharge for the proposed development is shown on Knobel Consulting Pty Ltd, Stormwater Management Plan (Ref: K3820/P002/B) included as Appendix D.

    2.3.2 Coefficient of Runoff The post development coefficient of runoff (C year) was determined based on fraction impervious (fi) method as specified in QUDM. The proposed development has a total impervious area of 1152 m2 which equates to a fraction impervious of 0.94. Using a one hour, ten year rainfall intensity (1I10) of 76.2 mm/hr, a C10 value of 0.88 has been adopted for the post development scenario. With reference to QUDM Table 4.05.3, applying the frequency factors for the standard storms of 2, 10, 20 and 100 years results in the following post development coefficients of runoff as shown in Table 4.

    2.3.3 Time of Concentration The post development time of concentration will incorporate five minutes of roof to ground time plus one minute of pipe/overland flow. This equates to a total travel time of six minutes to LPOD.

  • 2.4 Summary of Results As the pre development scenario has a high fraction impervious value the proposed development will cause a flow increase of 1 L/s for the Q2 and Q10 events and 2 L/s for the Q20 event. The peak flows from the Q100 storm event will not be altered. The proposed development will not cause a significant increase in peak flows from the site and stormwater detention is considered unwarranted and will not be required.

    2.5 External Catchments The contours of the areas surrounding the site were examined and it was determined that the subject site has no contributing external catchments.

    2.6 Roof Water Discharge Rates All stormwater runoff from the roof of the proposed development will discharge to the Stormfilter Cartridge system tank prior to discharging to the kerb via standard kerb adaptors (two 150mm x 100mm box sections). The proposed development has a total roof area of 1090 m2. The rational method was utilised to calculate the peak runoff from the roof area. For a 100 year storm event the peak flow from the roof was determined to be 73 L/s. The Stormfilter Cartridge treatment tank will out let to the kerb in two separate locations along Ventura Road. This ensures the peak flows discharging to the kerb are minimised and not concentrated in one location. Each separate 150 mm by 100 mm box section with a slope of 2.5 % has a capacity of 23L/s. The outlet configuration will include four 150 mm by 100 mm box sections (two at each outlet point). Therefore the kerb adaptor arrangement will have a total outlet capacity of 92 L/s.

    3.0 WATER QUALITY ASSESSMENT

    3.1 Background The development of land has the potential to increase the pollutant loads within stormwater runoff and downstream watercourses. During the construction phase of the development disturbance to the vegetation on the site has the potential to significantly increase sediment loads entering downstream watercourses. The operational phase of the development will alter the density of residential land use potentially increasing the amount of sediments and nutrients washing from the site. The following sections describe the predicted increase in pollutant loads generated by the proposed development and treatment devices to mitigate the potential increases. In accordance with industry guidelines suspended solids, nitrogen and phosphorus will be targeted for reduction during the operational phase of the development.

    3.2 Water Quality Objectives To protect the water quality of the downstream watercourses the following water quality objective has been applied to stormwater runoff from the site in accordance with SC6.9.3.2.3 Stormwater quality objectives (operational phase). Best Management Practices (BMP) are required to be demonstrated for all development applications within the city of the Gold Coast. The following load reduction targets must be achieved when assessing the post-developed sites treatment train (comparison of unmitigated developed case versus developed mitigated case).

    80% reduction in Total Suspended Sediment (TSS) 45% reduction in Total Nitrogen (TN) 60% reduction in Total Phosphorus (TP) 90% reduction in litter (sized 5 mm or greater)

  • 3.3 Post Development Water To assess the quantities of pollutants discharging from the site the water quality modelling package MUSIC v6.1.0 has been applied. MUSIC Modelling Parameters and delineated data have been sourced from Water by Design, MUSIC Modelling Guidelines.

    3.4 Construction Phase A high risk of stormwater pollution will occur from the site during the construction phase due to erosion and sediment transportation off site to the receiving environment. The majority of this risk results from construction activities disturbing the site and exposing areas of soil to the direct erosive influence of the environment. The following section outlines the procedures necessary to minimise erosion and control sediment during construction in accordance with The City of the Gold Coast, SC6.9.3 Water Sensitive Urban Design and the Institution of Engineers Australia (QLD) Erosion and Sediment Control Guidelines.

    3.4.1 Key Pollutants The following key pollutants have been identified for the Construction Phase of this development.

    3.5 Operational Phase The following sections provide details of the stormwater quality improvement devices (SQID’s) proposed for the operational phase of the development. Knobel Consulting Pty Ltd, Stormwater Management Plan (Ref: K3820/P002/B) included as Appendix D illustrates the type and location of the proposed SQID’s.

    3.5.1 Stormwater Quality Improvement Devices Due to the spacing constraints of the proposed development proprietary stormwater quality improvement devices will be utilised for stormwater treatment. Stormwater360 PSorb 690 mm Cartridges contained within a stormwater treatment have been proposed to treat roof water runoff. An infiltration trench in the south east of the site will be utilised to treat the runoff from the surrounding ground area prior to it releasing into the adjacent parkland. A diagram of the operational treatment train can be seen on Figure 3.

    Figure 3: Operational Phase Treatment Train for LPOD

    3.5.2 Design Parameters of the Stormwater Quality Improvement System Detailed design of the stormwater treatment train shall be in accordance with the WSUD, Technical Design Guidelines for South East Queensland – Version 1 (June 2006). Infiltration Pits Infiltration pits discharge stormwater through a layer of filter media, typically sandy loam. The water is then allowed to infiltrate into the surrounding soil. Infiltration devices are useful in situations where water quality treatment is required but restrictions prevent traditional storm water quality improvement devices. Infiltration Pit A

    ADOPTED REPORT 820

  • An exfiltration rate of 180 mm/h has been adopted to represent institute sand. Stormfilter (Psorb) Cartridges The Stormwater360 Stormfilter (Psorb) Cartridges are designed to operate in the same way as a traditional bioretention basin. That is stormwater runoff is directed to a ponding zone where it traps nutrients while draining through filter cartridges. The Stormwater360 Stormfilter (Psorb) Cartridge system is customized for specific sites depending on the pollutant loads produced. Its efficiency allows a smaller required treatment area. The number and location and layout of proprietary stormwater treatment devices are shown on Knobel Consulting Pty Ltd, Stormwater Management Plan (Ref: K3820/P002/B). Seven (7) 690 mm high Stormfilter (Psorb) Cartridges contained within an 8.4 m² tank will be required to treat all of the stormwater runoff from the roof areas. As there is no existing stormwater infrastructure in the surrounding streets the stormwater treatment tank will discharge to the kerb via a standard kerb adaptor. The location and layout of the proprietary stormwater treatment devices will be confirmed at the detailed design phase. The performance specification for the device is summarized below: Table 8: Stormfilter (Psorb) Cartridges Pollutant Removal Rates

    Pollutant % Removal Rate Gross Pollutant Removal 100 Total suspended solids (TSS) 93 Total phosphorus (TP) 86 Total nitrogen (TN) 46

    These results have been independently verified and are accepted by Council.

    3.5.3 Post Development Modelling Results - Mitigated The stormwater quality improvement device (SQIDs) will reduce the amount of sediments and nutrients discharging from the proposed residential development. Table 9 illustrates the effectiveness of the SQID’s to the LPOD.

    7.0 CONCLUSIONS Knobel Consulting Pty Ltd has been commissioned by Ventura Hwy Pty Ltd to prepare a Conceptual Stormwater Management Plan (CSWMP) for the Proposed residential development at 46 & 48 Ventura Road, Mermaid Beach. This CSWMP details the conceptual planning, layout and design of the stormwater management infrastructure for both the construction and operational phases of this development.

    Hydraulic analysis has demonstrated that the proposed development will cause a negligible increase in peak flows that will not cause nuisance to the receiving infrastructure. Therefore onsite detention will not be required. Knobel Consulting Pty Ltd has adopted a water sensitive urban design (WSUD) approach to managing the stormwater runoff from the proposed development by treating stormwater runoff within the proposed infiltration pit and proprietary water quality cartridges. A sediment and erosion control plan is provided for the construction phase of the development and shall be implemented by the contractor and developer.

    designed to assist you achieve a cost-effective turnkey solution

    for maintaining your stormwater system while also ensuring

    ongoing regulatory compliance.

    Total stormwater system maintenance

    Optimising performance and ensuring ongoing regulatory compliance

    The effectiveness of stormwater management systems is largely based on three factors:

    • the suitability of the implemented solution to deal with the site’s stormwater runoff

    • the ability of the installed products (such as screening, filtration and treatment devices) to remove the pollutant load

    • the existence of a comprehensive maintenance regime that includes regular inspection and cleaning.

    While many stormwater management facilities meet the first two criteria, the failure to conduct timely maintenance is one of the leading causes of inadequate performance, system malfunction and a failure to achieve acceptable standards in water quality. It can also lead to the degradation of the downstream aquatic ecosystem’s health.

    The Stormwater360 Maintenance Service has been designed to assist you achieve a cost-effective turnkey solution for maintaining your stormwater system whilst also ensuring ongoing regulatory compliance.

    Why maintenance matters

    Maintenance is as integral to every stormwater management system as it is to any other item of machinery or equipment. While the capital costs of constructing and installing a stormwater facility are usually given careful consideration, it is important to ensure that there is also an ongoing allocation of funds for operational costs, including a system-specific maintenance schedule for the life of the facility.

    A lack of proper maintenance can lead to:

    • Stormwater structures or storage facilities becoming clogged with debris or sediment, leading to reduced flow or storage capacity, which in turn may result in flooding of the site and damage to Stormwater assets and nearby infrastructure

    • A reduction in the ability of stormwater treatment devices to efficiently and effectively remove and prevent pollutants from entering waterways

    • A failure to comply with local authority regulations relating to stormwater quality standards, which may result in penalties for the site’s owners or property managers

    • The likelihood of costly repairs, increased ongoing maintenance costs and the potential of damage to other infrastructure or drainage assets

    • An erosion of the asset’s capital value.

  • 2 Stormwater360 Maintenance service

    Comprehensive service across all stormwater systems

    The Stormwater360 Maintenance Service covers all major types of stormwater systems, and is not limited to those we have designed and installed.

    The maintenance solutions we develop are tailored to the specific needs and attributes of each site, including its usage, the type and quantity of pollutants, as well as the frequency and extent of storm activity and its associated stormwater runoff. We also take into account the primary focus of the installation, such as flood mitigation, water quality, runoff management or stormwater harvesting.

    While we design our own tertiary filter systems to meet the requirements of a minimum 12-month maintenance frequency, primary and secondary pollution control devices will require more frequent inspection and cleaning.

    How maintenance is carried out

    Stormwater360 has developed a systematic maintenance approach to inspecting, cleaning and repairing different types of stormwater systems. We utilise fully trained experts who are familiar with the characteristics of each type of system, and the processes required to optimise its efficiency and performance.

    Catch basins with gross pollutant traps

    Indirect maintenance can help minimise the build up of trash and sediments, which is usually best achieved by simply cleaning the surrounding areas regularly. An example of this would be a public car park that is cleared of debris daily by using an industrial sweeper.

    In many stormwater systems, gully pits form the front-line defence for controlling stormwater pollution. Gully pits can be fitted with gross pollutant traps such as litter baskets that prevent trash and debris in the stormwater runoff from entering the attached drainage system. They can also be fitted with fine mesh screens and absorbent material that will help trap products such as oil and nutrients like phosphorous.

    Our regular maintenance of these devices includes inspection, recording and reporting, and is accompanied by periodic cleaning to remove accumulated debris and ensure optimal performance. Depending on the size of the system, it may be cleaned from the surface by hand, or may need to be accessed via a manhole and the debris removed using a large vacuum hose attached to an inductor truck.

    Stormwater treatment systems

    A gully pit litter basket is usually one element of a stormwater treatment train, and depending on the facility may include a siphon-actuated cartridge-based filtration product (such as the StormFilter) that can target the full spectrum of Stormwater pollutants, or a hydrodynamic separator (such as the Vortechs System), which removes suspended sediment, hydrocarbons and floating debris.

    In other facilities, such as public reserves along roadways, bio-filtration methods provide small-scale, at-source treatment of runoff that blends biological processes and engineered media filtration to create the perfect balance for the removal of pollutants.

    As the primary purpose of these stormwater treatment trains is to remove and prevent pollutants from entering waterways and impacting on aquatic ecosystems, it is important that these pollutants are periodically removed to restore the device to its full efficiency and effectiveness.

    The Stormwater360 Maintenance Service carries out every aspect of this cleaning process, which may involve sediment removal and disposal (following regulatory mandates), cleaning of the vault or manhole, and replenishing cartridges or components. A visual inspection and comprehensive data tracking of the system is also undertaken to assist with the ongoing management of the infrastructure. Data identifying the pollutant type and load can be fed back to the client to ultimately help reduce pollutant build up and the cost of maintenance.

    Vegetated assets

    In addition to the above systems, Stormwater360’s services can extend to the management of other treatment systems. We utilise the expertise of our specialists in inspecting and maintaining vegetated assets and bioretention systems, which help reduce stormwater impacts and create buffers that arrest the flow of nutrients into waterways.

    With more than 12 years experience in maintaining stormwater management assets, we can inspect the system and determine the key issues that need to be addressed for effective ongoing maintenance. We are also able to provide a cost-benefit analysis for retrofitting devices that will increase the efficiency of the overall WSUD design.
