Responsible Party for Operation &. Maintenance of Stormwater System During construction of the proposed stormwater improvements, the Contractor shall have responsibility for day-to-day operation and maintenance of all stormwater control systems, as well as compliance with the EPA NPDES Construction General Permit and adherence to the SWPPP for the project. At the time that construction is complete, Kollmorgen will take over all maintenance requirements for the stormwater control systems.· Financial Responsibility for Operation &. Maintenance of Stormwater System: Kollmorgen owns the facility and will be responsible for compliance with all environmental permits. Maintenance Schedule -(see attached plans for locations) Parking Lot Sweeping The parking lots and paved areas will be swept a minimum of twice per year, including once in the spring soon after snow melt. Any sediment collected will be transported and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations. Catch Basins and Manholes Inspect semi-annually and after any storm event where 2.5 inches, or more, of rain falls within a 24-hour period. Clean structures to remove any accumulated sediment and floatables which inhibit the flow through the structure. Catch basins shall be cleaned twice per year, once in the spring (April-May), and once in the fall (October-November). Sediment and debris shall be transported and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations. All Bioswales and Bioretention Areas Inspect quarterly upon completion of construction activities. Page 1 of 5 Bk: 10585 Pg: 51 Observe that the bloswales and bioretention areas are operating as intended. The bioswales are designed to collect and convey stormwater from the parking lots to the bioretention areas. The bioretention areas ar~ designed to collect, store and Infiltrate stormwater conveyed from the bioswales until the stormwater fills to the elevation of the catch basin grate in the bioretention area. Failure of the bioretention areas can occur if sediment and debris is allowed to build up to the point where infiltration and plant growth is inhibited. Therefore, the bioswales and bioretention areas must be routinely inspected for sediment and debris build-up and erosion on the above established schedule. If there is accumulation of sediment and debris over 2 inches in depth in any area, the sediment and debris shall be removed, transported and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations. Inspect gravel filter strips at curb inlets and remove debris and sediment build-up. Gravel shall be added to the filter strips as required to maintain the minimum 8-inch wide x 8-inch deep dimensions. During winter months, maintain breaks in curbing free from snow and Ice to allow proper drainage. Snow shall not be plowed or stored in the bioswales or bioretention areas. The vegetation in the bioswales and bioretentlon areas shall be inspected and maintained in accordance with the Landscape Maintenance Plan on the following schedule: SQdng -identify and replace dead plants, prune broken or dead branches from woody plant materials, remove leave accumulations, and re-seed bare native grass areas. Mulch shall be replaced in the bloretention areas every two years in the spring. Summer -inspect plant materials for signs of pest infestation or disease, remove weeds, and prune plants as necessary to maintain clearances for parking. Fall -remove leaf accumulation and trim native grass to a height of no less than 6- inches. · Bioretention Areas in Front Parking Lot Which Provide Infiltration (CB-5, CB- 6. CB-7, CB-8, CB-9, CB-10, CB-11. CB-12, CB-13) In addition to the inspection and maintenance requirements detailed above for all bioswales and bioretention areas, those bioretention areas in the front parking lot which are designated to provide infiltration shall be subject to the following additional Inspection and maintenance requirements. During the first two months of operation following construction, the bioretentlon areas in the front parking lot shall be inspected after every rainstorm where 2.5 Inches or more rain falls within a 24-hour. period. The approximate elapsed time from the end of the storm until there is no -longer standing water shall be recorded for each bioretention area in the front parking lot. An infiltrating bioretention area shall be deemed to be not functioning correctly if it takes longer than 72 hours to drain completely following the end of a rainstorm. If an area-is not functioning correctly the following steps shall be taken to restore the Infiltration properties of the bioretention area. · • Remove any sedimen.t accumulations from the areas which are not draining. Re- check standing water duration following next significant storm. Page 2 of 5 Bk: 10585 Pg: 52 • If sediment accumulation removal does not restore the infiltration characteristics of the bioretention area, loosen the topsoil and subsoil by tilling, harrowing, or · overturning the material in the problematic areas. Vegetation should be removed prior to disturbing the soils if possible. Following disturbance, replant and/or replace the vegetation and mulch. • If sediment removal and soil loosening efforts do not restore the required infiltration properties, the upper 30-inches of soil should be removed and replaced with new engineering planting mix consisting of 40% sand, 20% topsoil, and 40% compost. Vegetation should be removed prior to excavation if possible. Following replacement of the soil, replant and/or replace the vegetation and mulch. Vortechs Treatment Unit (WOS-1) Inspect semi-annually upon completion of construction activities. Observe that the unit is operating as intended and that there is no structural damage or wear that should be corrected. Inspection results and maintenance work should be recorded on the Vortechs inspection and maintenance log included with this document. All chambers of the unit should be checked for sediment buildup during the routine inspection. The Vortech unit should be cleaned out with a vacuum truck immediately in the event of a spill in the parking lots or loading dock area, when the depth of sediment has accumulated to within 12 to 18 inches of the dry weather surface water elevation In the swirl chamber, or a minimum of once per year. If present, sediment should also be removed from the baffle chambers during the cleaning process. Cleaning should be performed during dry weather conditions when no flow is entering the system. All material removed from the Vortech unit should be disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations. Outlet Control Structures (OCS-1. OCS-3) Inspect semi-annually upon completion of construction activities and after any storm event where 2.5 inches, or more, of rain falls within a 24-hour period. Observe that the outlet control structures are operating as intended. The outlet control structures are designed to detain and control the outflow of stormwater at certain points in the stormwater management system. These structures should be inspected for sediment, debris build-up, and damage. Sediment and debris should be removed during the routine inspection so that there is no interference wit.h the intended operation of the structure. Sediment and debris should be transported and disposed of off-site In accordance with applicable regulations. Subsurface Detention System Inspect semi-annually upon completion of construction activities. Observe that the subsurface detention system is operating as intended and in accordance with manufacturer's requirements. The subsurface detention system is incorporated into the stormwater system to temporarily detain stormwater within the management system. Page 3 of 5 Bk: 10585 Pg: 53 The detention system shall be inspected through the access risers and cleanout ports for sediment and debris build-up and damage. Sediment and debris shall be removed when the depth of material exceeds 15% of the detention system pipe diameter. Sediment and debris shall be removed from the subsurface system through the access risers and the cleanout ports using a vacuum truck. Manual cleaning through the access ports may be required if it is determined that large debris is present. In the · system. Only certified confined space ·entry personnel shall enter the system for manual cleaning. Sediment and debris shall be transported and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations. Detention Basin No.6 Inspect semi-annually upon completion of construction activities and after any storm event where 2.5 Inches, or more, of rain falls within a 24-hour period. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the basin outfall area following large storm events. Access for inspection and maintenance of the basin shall be across the grassed slope from the fire lane along the south side of the Kollmorgen facility. The detention basin shall be Inspected for debris and sediment build-up, erosion, health of vegetation, and settlement. General trash and debris shall be removed on a semi-annual basis. If erosion is found it should be repaired utilizing loam, seed, and erosion control blankets, as necessary. Sediment shall be removed from the main basin area when it reaches a depth of 6-inches, but not less than once every five years. Sediment shall be removed from the forebay when it reaches a depth of 6-inches, but not less than once every year. Sediment and debris shall be transported and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations. The outlet control structure and downstream swale including the weir, outlet pipes, and rip rap channel shall be inspected for signs of deterioration, clogging, or erosion. Outlet pipes shall be cleaned and erosion shall be repaired with additional rip rap or loam, seed, and erosion control blankets as necessary. The basin vegetation shall be mowed and/or trimmed on a semi-annual basis to a height of no less than 4-inches. Areas Downstream of Detention Basin No.6 Inspect semi-annually upon completion of construction activities. The 18-lnch inlet at Grove Street shall also be inspected after any storm event where 2.5 inches, or more, of rain falls within a 24-hour period. Flow from detention basin no.6 leaves the rip rap outlet pad and travels through a small wetland area to an 18-inch diameter reinforced concrete drainage system inlet adjacent to Grove Street. A portion of the outflow from the basin is also directed by a small vegetated berm to a drainage channel which runs parallel to the driveway for 91 Grove Street before discharging to the drainage system Inlet. This small berm was constructed to prevent the detention basin outflow from entering the back parking area for 91 Grove Street. The vegetated berm, small channel, and general grading of the wetland area must be Page 4 of 5 Bk: 10585 Pg: 54 maintained so that drainage flows are directed to the rip-rap basin and 18-inch inlet and not to the paved parking area at 91 Grove Street or to the Grove Street roadway. The wetland area between the basin outfall and the drainage system inlet, the vegetated berm, and the small channel along the 91 Grove Street driveway should be inspected on a semi-annual basis for erosion. If erosion is found it should be repaired utilizing loam, seed, and erosion control blankets. Approval from the Conservation Commission may be necessary prior to undertaking work within the designated wetland area. The 18-inch inlet to the Grove Street drainage system should also be inspected for sediment build-up and clogging. If sediment or debris reaches a depth of 6-inches or more in the small rip rap basin at the inlet it should be removed and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations. An easement for access to the property at 91 Grove Street for inspection and maintenance of the drainage system components has been prepared and a sketch detailing the limits of this easement is attached. All maintenance work and access shall be performed in accordance with the requirements of the easement agreement. Record Keeping and Annual Reports Records shall be maintained by Kollmorgen Electro-Optical at their offices as described above and shall document all routine and emergency maintenance work performed on the stormwater management system and shall bear the signature of the individual supervising the work. Annual reports documenting the inspection and maintenance of the stormwater management system shall be certified by a registered professional engineer or other qualified stormwater professional, as approved by the Northampton Department of Public Works. Annual reports shall be submitted to the Northampton Department of Public Works and the Northampton Office of Planning and Development no later than October 1st of each year. Page 5 of 5 Bk: 10585 Pg: 55 Vortechs Inspection & Maintenance Log Vortech Model: Location: Water Floatable Describe Maintenance Date depth to Layer Maintenance Comments Personnel sediment1 Thickness2 Performed 1. The water depth to sediment is determined by taking two measurements with a stadia rod: one measurement from the manhole opening to the top of the sediment pile and the other from the manhole opening to the water surface. If the difference between these measurements is less than eighteen inches the system should be cleaned out. Note: To avoid underestimating the volume of sediment in the chamber, the measuring device must be carefully lowered to the top of the sediment pile. 2. For optimum performance, the system should be cleaned out when the floating hydrocarbon layer accumulates to an appreciable thickness. In the event of an oil spill, the system should be cleaned immediately. . . .
