PROJECT TYPE

The project type is New Development.

The Site is located in the northwestern portion of Blandford on North Blandford Road. The project Site

consists of approximately 11.58 acres.

The applicant proposes to construct a solar panel array occupying approximately 4.34 acres of the

property with an associated driveway providing access from North Blandford Road.

STANDARD 1: No New Untreated Discharges

The project does not include any new untreated discharges.

STANDARD 2: Peak Rate Attenuation

The project has been designed such that the post-development peak rates of run-off from the project are

consistent or less than pre-development rates.

Peak Flows at Design Point #99

As shown in the tables above, the stormwater management system has been designed so that no negative

impact, relative to the increase in peak runoff rates, will occur to abutting properties.

STANDARD 3: Recharge

This Standard is not applicable due to no new impervious surface cover.

STANDARD 4: Water Quality

See Standard 9 for information in regards to Long Term Pollution Prevention Plan.

STANDARD 5: Land Uses with Higher Potential Pollutant Loads (LUHPPLs)

The project does not contain Land Uses with Higher Potential Pollutant Loads (LUHPPLs).

STANDARD 6: Critical Areas

The project does not require review by the Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program due to its

proximity to a critical area.

STANDARD 7: Redevelopments and Other Projects Subject to the Standards only to the

maximum extent practicable

The project is New Development; therefore this Standard is not applicable.

STANDARD 8: Construction Period Pollution Prevention and Erosion and Sedimentation Control

Erosion control measures are shown on the attached plans. The project will be covered by a NPDES

Construction General Permit and the SWPPP will be submitted prior to land disturbance.

STANDARD 9: Operation and Maintenance Plan

This project is a private commercial solar panel array. The project developer will be responsible for the

maintenance and operation of the proposed stormwater management system.

As presented within the description of the proposed stormwater management system, several

management practices have been instituted to collect, mitigate and treat stormwater runoff from the

proposed development. These include the following:

Retention of stormwater, within the proposed stormwater basin to facilitate recharge of the

groundwater system and balancing of pre/post flows.

Construction of stormwater basin with an associated outlet to mitigate pre and post peak

development flows for all storm events (i.e. 2, 10, 25 and 100 year storm events).

All of the above items reflect mitigation measures to improve and maintain stormwater quality that will

flow as groundwater to the existing neighboring wetland system. In order to assure proper operation of

the stormwater facilities in the future, it is necessary for a stormwater maintenance program be instituted

and followed.

The project developer will be the owner of the storm water system described herein and responsible for

the required maintenance and operation of the storm water. The proposed maintenance procedures and

scheduling is as follows:

CONSTRUCTION COMPLETION MAINTENANCE

Once construction grading of the basin is completed, proper stabilization of all slopes within the Site and

specifically the basin is required. Hay mulch, geotextile fabric, and hydroseeding are required to

prevent necessary sediment transport to the basin bottom area. Haybales or siltfence will be required at

the toe of interior basin slopes to prevent siltation of the exfiltration trenches or the basin bottom until

the side slopes are stabilized.

STORMWATER BASIN MAINTENANCE

The stormwater basin is a primary element of the Site’s stormwater management program. Final

treatment and infiltration of stormwater normally occurs within this mitigation structure. At a minimum,

at 6 month intervals, the bottom of the basin requires inspection and removal of sediment if, during the

inspection, an accumulation of 2” or more of sediment is found at several locations within the basin. In

addition, routine inspections are required after each major storm event of 1” of rainfall or more.

Additionally, the operation of the drainage system should be observed at least once every six months

during a major storm event to evaluate its performance and note any deficiencies that may be occurring.

Included within this report are sample inspection forms that should be completed to maintain proper

records of necessary observations and required maintenance.

If persistent ponding of the basin’s bottom is observed during routine inspections, this may indicate a

significant reduction in the available exfiltration capacity. The cause of the reduction in capacity will

need to be investigated. Additional removal of sediments and the reworking of the surface sand layer

may be required to restore the infiltration capacity.

Inspection of stormwater basin’s outlet is required. Accumulated debris, etc., is to be removed from the

vicinity of the outflow. The stormwater basin’s emergency spillway shall be inspected on a regular

basis. If there is evidence that an overflow event has occurred, the rip rap on the slope shall be

examined to determine if repairs are required following the overflow event.

Due to the design of the interior slopes of the basin to accommodate construction equipment, it is

anticipated that slope erosion should be minimal after the vegetation is established. If erosion of the

slopes occurs, loam shall be replaced and standard methods used to re-establish proper vegetation cover.

Fescues and reed canary grass seed mixtures, which are rapid growing and low maintenance, are

recommended. Hay mulch or other suitable stabilizing techniques shall be utilized during the reseeding

process.

On a bi-yearly basis the side slopes of the basin area will be mowed. The condition of the turf, the status

of controlled tree growth, and evidence of differential settlement will be evaluated and if needed,

corrective action will be taken. The outside toe of slope should be evaluated for evidence of ponding or

leakage through the embankment. If evidence of leakage is apparent, an engineer will be engaged by the

owner to evaluate the stability of the embankment and furnish recommendations regarding the structure.

SOURCE CONTROLS

In the event of a spill of petroleum products or hazardous substances, certain measures must be taken

and include the following:

A spill control and containment kit (containing, for example, absorbent materials, acid

neutralizing powder, brooms, dust pans, mops, rags, gloves, goggles, plastic and metal trash

containers, first aid equipment) should be readily available.

All spills shall be cleaned up immediately after discovery.

All measures must be taken to contain and abate the spill and to prevent the discharge of the

Hazardous Substance or Oil to storm water or off-site. (The spill area must be kept well

ventilated and personnel must wear appropriate protective clothing to prevent injury from contact

with the Hazardous Substances.)

In the event of a spill discharging to the stormwater system, the spill should be contained with

the hooded catch basins and/or oil chambers of the water quality units. Any hazardous material

found within the catch basins or water quality units should be removed immediately by a

licensed liquid waste handler.

The owner should be familiar with the spill reporting requirements of the Massachusetts

Contingency Plan (310 CMR 40.0000).

Contact Numbers:

Blandford Fire Department – Emergency - 911

Office – 413-848-2874

MADEP Emergency Response - 1-888-304-1133

SNOW & ICE MANAGEMENT

Snow should be stored in areas of the site such that any snowmelt is directed and captured by the

drainage system.

Avoid disposing of snow on top of stormwater drainage swales or ditches. Snow combined with

sand and debris may block a storm drainage system, causing localized flooding. A high volume

of sand, sediment, and litter released from melting snow also may be quickly transported through

the system into surface water.

Sand shall be the primary de-icing agent.

After spring snow melt has occurred, snow storage areas should be cleaned of all trash, debris

and accumulated sands.

STORMWATER MAINTENANCE PLAN DATA SHEETS

Enclosed within the Stormwater Maintenance Plan, is a “member roster” to clearly establish the

individuals responsible for the stormwater system maintenance. Additionally, a stormwater system

inspection form has been included as an example of a method to document the required inspection and

maintenance of the stormwater system.

An operation and maintenance log should be maintained for the last three years. This should include

inspections, repairs, replacement and disposal. For disposal, the log shall indicate the type of material

and the disposal location.
