Welcome! On behalf of EWRI’s Urban Water Resources Research Council and the organizing commit-tee, I want to welcome you to Denver and the inaugural confer-ence on the operation and mainte-nance of stormwater control mea-sures. Clean water, flood management, and sustainability drivers have led to widespread

implementation of green and gray stormwater control measures—and their success depends on effective opera-tion and maintenance.

Learn about on-the-ground lessons learned, institutional approaches, the latest research into O&M, and discuss information needs for the future. Engage with key munici-pal staff about their implementation of asset management and life cycle cost analysis to manage O&M. Choose from more than 100 technical papers being given on a broad range of O&M topics, or join the discussion for one of the invited panels, including:• Incorporating maintenance into institutional structures• Pollutant accumulation and management: residuals• National green infrastructure certification• Monitoring needs• Case studies: recognizing failure and celebrating suc-

cess• International approaches in China’s Sponge Cities

initiative

Welcome to O&M


Kick off the conference with a workshop on inspection and maintenance, or on tools like life cycle cost analysis and asset management. Be inspired by the story of Mr. Trash Wheel in the Baltimore Harbor, presented by keynote speaker Adam Lindquist, who directs the Healthy Har-bor Initiative for Baltimore’s Waterfront Partnership. It’s a remarkable story of bringing together diverse groups for a common purpose and humanizing a difficult water quality problem. And after the papers and panels, join the confer-ence’s technical tour of Denver stormwater control mea-sure installations, or enjoy evening networking with dinner at the Wynkoop Brewery—the conference’s key social event, a short walk from the venue.

Part of EWRI’s International Low Impact Development conference series, the Stormwater O&M Conference is a chance to engage with municipal staff, leading consultants, academics doing seminal work in the field, and regulators. Join the conversation about how to ensure stormwater controls work. How do we anticipate needed maintenance and budget for it? What tools are being used? How are implementers managing changing needs? What informa-tion keeps regulators happy, and how do we know O&M is making a difference for water quality?

We look forward to joining you at the conference!

Regards,

Keith Lichten, P.E., M.ASCE

Watershed Protection before joining the Waterfront Partnership of Baltimore in 2011 where he is now the Director of the Healthy Harbor Initiative.

Presentation: Baltimore Water Wheel

Cities are amazing resources of people and power (both hard and soft), but many have polluted waterways that are considered “dead” or “toxic” by residents. Restoration of rivers, bays and oceans will require the resources that urban populations can bring, but first they must be engaged in the process. The Wa-terfront Partnership of Baltimore uses innovative technologies, clever social media and passionate community organizing to remind residents why clean water is important and how they can become part of the solution. Waterfront Partnership projects in-clude the internationally successful “Mr. Trash Wheel”, innovative “floating wetlands” and an urban oyster restoration project that aims to plant 5 million oysters by 2020.

Auraria Campus Proprietary BMP Maintenance

As part of a multi-million dollar renovation to the Auraria Cam-pus in downtown Denver, the Tivoli Quad project included the development of a tiered patio, softball field modifications, a beer garden, building access improvements, decks and landscaping, site/activity lighting, and roadway and streetscape build out of Larimer Street, 11th Street and Walnut Street. As with many urbanized areas, required stormwater treatment and detention could not be accomplished above ground. Contech Engineered Solutions will discuss the operation, maintenance, and pertinent considerations relative to the 18,000cf underground CMP deten-tion system installed on the campus, as well as StormFilter, the manufactured treatment device implemented to treat runoff prior to it entering Denver’s public storm system.

Sloan’s Lake Forebay

Pretreatment is critical for this City Lake used heavily for recre-ation. The designers were successful in creating an attractive area that provides pretreatment of storm flows prior to reaching the lake. At this site, we will hear from the City of Denver regard-ing ease of maintenance for this facility.

City of Golden Dump Station

This facility addresses a problem many municipalities are faced with today. The City of Golden was in need of a facility to dump, filter, dry, and dispose of the material removed from the storm drain system. The facility fulfills the need of the City and was designed in such a way that it can easily be modified as the pro-gram and system expanse in the future.

Special Events

Barnum Park Constructed Wetlands

This wetland pond was constructed to provide water quality prior to discharge of roadway runoff into Barnum Lake. Shortly after the project was finished, the public complained about trash in the wetlands. Retrofits to the forebay allowed the City of Denver to better maintain the facility and keep trash out of the wetlands.

Huston Lake - Denver

This project started due to a nuisance drainage issue and the final plan addressed that and much more. The design includes a bioretention basin with an innovative forebay designed for main-tenance through Denver’s street sweeping program.

Technical Workshops 1:00 – 5:00 p.m.

Life Cycle Cost & Asset Management of Green InfrastructureRoom: Silverton 1 | 4 PDHs

For green infrastructure there is inadequate information on life cycle cost to inform decision making. For example, what implica-tions do investments in pretreatment and sediment control have on green infrastructure service life? What reasonable assump-tions can we make at this time? What can we do to advance this knowledge?

Learn methods, tools, and best practices to support informed, cost-based decision making for the complete life cycle of green infrastructure programs. Instructors represent leading green infrastructure programs, including Philadelphia Water, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, DC Water, and the Prince George’s County Maryland Clean Water Partnership.

Stormwater Control Measure Inspection & MaintenanceRoom: Silverton 2 | 4 PDHs

Basic Inspection and Maintenance needs for stormwater control measures will be discussed, including practices associated with green infrastructure. Focus will be placed initially on basic drivers and SCM function, followed by maintenance fundamentals that are common among SCMs. Specific inspection and mainte-nance needs for a few select practices will be provided. Lastly, a discussion of North Carolina’s successful certification program in the subject area will inspire other entities that inspection and maintenance can become part of the lifeblood of good stormwa-ter programs. The instructors have a diverse background and have presented a longer version of this workshop approximately 75 times world-wide.

Hear about what is working and what is not. What are the design issues causing failure or excessive maintenance costs? What are the dos and don’ts of design? Are things looking better on paper than reality? Should we be more aware of land use, drain-age characteristics, and pollutant loading? How can designers’ names be celebrated, rather than reviled, by maintenance staff? Sometimes we learn more from our mistakes.

Keep your hand on your wallet. We are past the point of thinking these facilities do not need maintenance, but just what are the costs of operation and maintenance? Hear about some of the lat-est models and research reports, tools, and needs. What are the variables and best estimates for deployment, operation, disposal, and overall management costs?
