Catch basins with oil -filtering inserts capture oils from runoff (such as from leaking vehicles). Several types of catch basin inserts are approved for use in the City of Springfield. All inserts must remove at least 70% of the Total Suspended Solids (TSS) from runoff and contain oil -absorbing media pouches. In addition, catch basin inserts must be for permanent use (temporary or construction -type inserts are not allowed). Catch basins and their associated filters must be cleaned and maintained routinely to function properly, and to meet the required TSS and oil removal criteria. Clogged pipes, Flooding, pests, and downstream sedimentation and pollution may occur if they are not maintained regularly.

I. Inspection: Annual inspection is required. Monthly inspection during the miny season is recommended. 2. Maintenance: Catch basins and their filters should be cleaned at least once per year, or if there is a spill or other incident. Monthly or quarterly cleaning maybe needed if there is a lot of sediment or debris on site. Material must be disposed of properly. Filter insert: Remove sediment, leaves, and trash regularly and dispose of debris as regular trash. If a spill or contamination has occurred, coordinate with a hazardous waste cleanup company. Use caution when removing debris from the insert so the oil -absorbing media pouches are not thrown away. Replace the oil -filtering media pouches at least once per year or more often if necessary (media should be white). Vaults: Remove sediment and debris from the vault(s) of the catch basin when the sump is half full, or if there is a spill or other incident The sump depth is the distance between the bottom of the vault and the bottom of the outlet pipe. For example, if the sump's depth 24, then it would need to be cleaned out when the depth of material exceeds 12" Dispose of material properly. If the catch basin is double -chambered, make sure to clean out both vaults. References Springfield's Engineering Design Standards and Procedures Manual Water Quality Facility Management Program Rain Gardens Operations and Maintenance Plan A vegetated Infiltration Basin or rain garden is a vegetated depression created by excavation, berms, or small dams to provide for short-term ponding of surface water until it percolates into the soil. The basin shall infiltrate stomtwater within 24 hours. All facility components and vegetation shall be inspected for proper operations and structural stability, at a minimum, quarterly for the first 2 years from the date of installation, 2 times per year thereafter, and within 48 hours after each major storm event. The facility owner must keep a log, recording all inspection dates, observations, and maintenance activities. The following items shall be inspected and maintained as stated: Basin Inlet shall assure unrestricted stomtwater flow to the vegetated basin. • Sources of erosion shall be identified and controlled when native soil is exposed or erosion channels are present. • Inlet shall be cleared when conveyance capacity is plugged. • Rocks lash pads shall be replenished to prevent erosion. Embankment, Dikes, Berms and Side Slopes retain water in the infiltration basin. • Structural deficiencies shall be corrected upon discovery: o Slopes shall be stabilized using appropriate erosion control measures when soil is exposed/ flow channels are forming. o Sources of erosion damage shall be identified and controlled. Overflow or Emergency Spillway conveys flow exceeding reservoir capacity to an approved stormwater receiving system. • Overflow shall be cleared when 25% of the conveyance capacity is plugged. • Sources of erosion damage shall be identified and controlled when soil is exposed. • Rocks or other armament shall be replaced when only one layer of rock exists. Filter Media shall allow stormwater to percolate uniformly through the infiltration basin. If water remains 36-48 hours after storm, sources of possible clogging shall be identified and corrected. • Basin shall be raked and, if necessary, soil shall be excavated, and cleaned or replaced. • Infiltration area shall be protected from compaction during construction. Sediment/ Basin Debris Management shall prevent loss of infiltration basin volume caused by sedimentation. Gauges located at the opposite ends of the basin shall be maintained to monitor sedimentation. • Sediment and debris exceeding 3 inch in depth shall be removed every 2-5 years or sooner if performance is affected. Debris and Litter shall be removed to ensure stormwater infiltration and to prevent clogging of overflow drains and interference with plant growth. • Restricted sources of sediment and debris, such as discarded lawn clippings, shall be identified and prevented. Vegetation shall be healthy and dense enough to provide filtering while protecting underlying soils from erosion. • Mulch shall be replenished as needed to ensure healthy plant growth • Vegetation, large shrubs or trees that limit access or interfere with basin operation shall be pruned or removed. • Grass shall be mowed to 4"-9" high and grass clippings shall be removed no less than 2 times per year. • Fallen leaves and debris from deciduous plant foliage shall be raked and removed if build up is damaging vegetation. • Nuisance or prohibited vegetation (such as blackberries or English Ivy) shall be removed when discovered. Invasive vegetation contributing up to 25% of vegetation of all species shall be removed. • Dead vegetation shall be removed to maintain less than 10% of area coverage or when infiltration Appendix 3A-4 Page 15 of 31 EDSP Adopted December 03, 2012 basin function is impaired. Vegetation shall be replaced within 3 months, or immediately if required to control erosion. Spill Prevention measures shall be exercised when handling substances that contaminate stormwater. Releases of pollutants shall be corrected as soon as identified. Training and/or written guidance information for operating and maintaining vegetated infiltration basins shall be provided to all property owners and tenants. A copy of the O&M Plan shall be provided to all property owners and tenants. Access to the infiltration basin shall be safe and efficient. Egress and ingress mutes shall be maintained to design standards. Roadways shall be maintained to accommodate size and weight of vehicles, if applicable. • Obstacles preventing maintenance personnel and/or equipment access to the infiltration basin shall be removed. • Gravel or ground cover shall be added if erosion occurs, e.., due to vehicular or pedestrian traffic. Insects and Rodents shall not be harbored in the infiltration basin. Pest control measures shall be taken when insects/rodents are found to be present. • If a complaint is received or an inspection reveals that a stormwater facility is significantly infested with mosquitoes or other vectors, the property owner/owners or their designee may be required to eliminate the infestation at the City inspector's discretion. Control of the infestation shall be attempted by using first non -chemical methods and secondly, only those chemical methods specifically approved by the City's inspector. Acceptable methods include but are not limited to the following: i. Installation of predacious bird or bat nesting boxes. ii. Alterations of pond water levels approximately every four days in order to disrupt mosquito larval development cycles. iii. Stocking ponds and other permanent water facilities with fish or other predatory species. iv. If non -chemical methods have proved unsuccessful, contact the City inspector prior to use of chemical methods such as the mosquito larvicides Bacillus thurengensis var. ismeliensis or other approved larvicides. These materials may only be used with City inspector approval if evidence can be provided that these materials will not migrate off-site or enter the public stomtwater system. Chemical larvicides shall be applied by a licensed individual or contractor. • Holes in the ground located in and around the infiltration basin shall be filled. If used at this site, the following will be applicable: Fences shall be maintained to preserve their functionality and appearance. • Collapsed fences shall be restored to an upright position. • Jagged edges and damaged fences shall be mpaired or replaced.
