GHD is the engineer of record for the horizontal infrastructure that serves the new Levi’s Stadium for the San
Francisco 49ers. As part of the design for infrastructure and site improvements, GHD provided stormwater
treatment facilities to be compliant with SCVURPPP C.3 program.
All flows up to the 85th percentile storm will be treated before being discharged to the City of Santa Clara’s storm
drainage system. The primary treatment methodology will be to direct flows from the stadium building to
mechanical filter and discharged into the 10-year storm drain pipe line. Areas exterior to the stadium building will
either be directed to a hydrodynamic separator before being routed through a mechanical filter and discharged
into the 10-year storm drain pipe line or treated by a C.3 Treatment Methodology before being directed to the
storm drainage system. The Stadium site was divided into approximately ten drainage management areas,
ranging from 1 acre to 7+ acres. Each area provided similar treatment systems depending on the site conditions
and limitations. These treatment methodologies include bio-retention swales, Silva Cells, or other techniques that
are applicable to the treatment of the low flow storm drainage. Flows larger than the 85th percentile storm will
bypass the hydrodynamic separator and the mechanical filter for discharge directly to the 10-year storm drain pipe
line.

Campus Engineer, Physical Planning & Construction
University of California, Santa Cruz Campus
Telephone: (831) 459-2528
For the expansion of University of California Santa Cruz (University) Marine Science Campus (Campus),
GHD supported the University through the Initial Planning Phase by conducting a comprehensive analysis of the
utility infrastructure required to meet the needs of the growth anticipated in the University’s Coastal Long Range
Development Plan. Working with the University’s engineering, planning, environmental, financial, and physical
plant staff, as well as other campus and non-campus stakeholders, GHD prepared recommendations for the
backbone utility infrastructure including the potable water, filtered seawarer, sanitary sewer, storm drain, natural
gas, electrical, communication, stormwater, grading, and pavement systems.
GHD performed hydrologic/hydraulic models using HEC-HMS, StormCAD V8i, and Hydraflow for the proposed
Campus development. Findings were summarized into a Master Plan document and used as the basis of design
for infrastructure design for the campus. To help the University achieve its goal of a sustainably designed
Campus, we incorporated the future use of low impact development (LID) stormwater features into the planning of
the utility infrastructure. The primary goal of protecting the Campus’ Younger Lagoon Reserve and onsite
wetlands guided the design of the future stormwater system, which includes LID elements such as infiltration
trenches, planter boxes, permeable pavement, vegetated swales, and bioswales. GHD collaborated in
workshops with the Area Plan Architect and participated in Design Advisory Board meetings in order to ensure
that the design would adequately address stormwater quantity and quality control issues. GHD developed a
Grading and Drainage Master Plan which assessed the viability of a Campus layout proposed by the architect of
the most intensely developed portion of the Campus. Study results were incorporated by the architect in
subsequent layout refinements.

GHD provided planning for all the horizontal infrastructure elements of the Hunters Point Shipyard Phase 2
project, including over 16 miles of arterial and collector roadways, stormwater drainage and treatment systems,
site grading, retaining walls, electrical, water systems, and sewer systems. The stormwater design met the project
goals for 5-year collection, overland flow, and water quality/LID systems.
Hunters Point’s street cross section geometry, groundwater, bedrock, and soil conditions impact the selection of
water quality treatment methods at the site. The largest contributing factor at Hunters Point is the condition of the
soil. Contaminants, including radiological contamination, are present in soils at this site.
In general, landscaped areas such as median strips, street tree zone along the sidewalk, and parks provided the
best opportunities for treatment. City parks were used to treat runoff from adjacent streets. Wherever possible,
LID was incorporated into street cross sections. Bioretention areas were used where the sidewalk is
discontinuous due to street lights and other infrastructure, and offers flexible planting options and opportunities to
maximize aesthetics. Vegetated swales with vertical walls, or “green gutters”, were proposed for treatment in the
street right‐of‐way as an alternative. Other proposed elements include swirl separators, drain inserts, vegetated
roofs, rainwater harvesting, vegetated swales, infiltration trenches, tree well filters, porous pavement, media
filters, and rain gardens.

Project Understanding
Understanding of Urban Storm Water Management Practices, Issues, and Requirements,
including LID Requirements
Urban storm water management involves numerous regulations, requirements, and practices, all of which need to
be considered holistically to develop innovative stormwater management systems. One common issue of concern
is the soil type and groundwater condition underlying the development in question. If the soil type is low
permeability types C or D or the site has high groundwater table, then the surface treatment BMPs such as
bioswales and bioretention would need to be lined and piped instead of mainly relying on infiltration. Additionally,
it is important to develop the site with minimum impervious area and disconnect the impervious areas as much as
possible. It would reduce the concentrated urban peak flow from the project site and hence reduce the BMP
requirements for both flow and treatment control. Another very important success factor for stormwater
management design is to integrate landscape architecture and engineering so that stormwater features can be
designed with appropriate landscaping to incorporate aesthetic concerns into stormwater BMPs.
Understanding of Continuous Simulation Hydrologic Models and Analysis of Output Data for
Use in Design of Hydromodification Control Measures
Hydromodification is an important design consideration for stormwater management. Two key factors of the
hydromodification compliance in Santa Clara County are the site location and the local hydrology. SCVURPPP
Hydromodification Management Plan (HMP) delineates areas where increases in runoff will adversely impact the
water quality and stream health, and provides management options for maintaining pre-project runoff patterns.
For the hydrology analysis, GHD has experience and expertise in continuous simulation hydrologic modeling
utilizing software such as Storm Water Management Model (SWMM), West Washington Hydrology Model
(WWHM), and Bay Area Hydrology Model (BAHM). Based on the analysis result, we are able to develop the flow
hydrograph for various proposed development conditions, which we used to design flow control devices such as
detention basin. The resulting design allows our project to maintain the existing pre-development flow pattern,
satisfies the local and region stormwater management requirements, and in some cases, is in compliance with
LEED certification stormwater control and treatment credits.

Relevance to project. John has 19 years of experience in a wide variety of civil and
environmental engineering projects, specializing in rural development, storm water, and water quality issues. John designed the SMART Rail Project compliance documents for the State of California Construction General Permit and has continued to oversee implementation, revision, and compliance with this permit for all phases of construction. John’s experience also includes roadway, water system, and on-site disposal system design; reservoir design and vineyard development throughout California and in Oregon; advanced mapping and analysis using both CAD and GIS; residential site planning and development; and significant construction oversight, mapping, and surveying. John has been actively involved in the Construction General Permit since the mid 1990’s and with the multiple revisions since its inception, providing a thorough understanding of both the conceptual and practical aspects of the permit. He was one of the first two hundred people certified in the State as a Qualified Storm Water Pollution Prevention Developer (QSD). Through this variety of experience John has excelled at being able to communicate with planners, construction personnel, and stakeholders to resolve differences between design elements and the actual site conditions that affect project planning and regulatory compliance.
Project Engineer & QSD
SMART Rail Redevelopment | Sonoma and
Marin Counties, CA
The 70 mile SMART project is located in both the San Francisco Bay Area and the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Jurisdictions. Compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System General Permit for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities, typically referred to as the Construction General Permit (CGP), is critical.
Key issues and challenges for this aspect of the SMART project include differing interpretations of the CGP regulations by personnel of the different RWQCB’s, providing workable solutions for conflicting environmental requirements, preparing permit documents and securing the necessary Waste Discharge Identification (WDID), and successfully designing and implementing a compliance plan despite regulations which do not fully address this type of construction project.
Compliance documents were designed within an extremely small time window allowing the initial construction phase to begin on schedule. John
provides continuing coordination with regulatory agencies, design-build teams, and environmental consultants providing guidance to SMART for regulatory compliance.
Because construction activities are highly visible to the public and to the environmental community in general, ensuring compliance with the CGP for the SMART project includes training and oversight of construction teams to ensure that compliance activities are conducted properly and that staff is proactive in employment of best management practices. John is responsible for the sampling and analysis of storm water discharge from the construction site to verify compliance with storm water discharge requirements.
John verifies that the SWPPP related documents are updated to reflect current construction efforts, and manages the project information on the State Water Boards Storm Water Multiple Application and Report Tracking Systems (SMARTS).

Zinfandel Lane Fish Passage
Improvement Project | Napa County
Resource Conservation District, Napa
County, CA
Project Engineer on this fish passage design project. Zinfandel Lane crosses the Napa River near St. Helena, CA. The crossing is a 1913 stone arch bridge, a gravity structure, with a single pier. An existing, but failing, concrete apron protects the bridge abutments from scour. A large scour pool has formed downstream of the apron. The vertical jump from the scour pool, the high velocities across the apron, and low summer time flows traveling beneath the apron make this a fish passage barrier. The goal of the project was to design a new fish passage structure that allows fish passage over a range of flows and protects the historic bridge. The resulting design includes differing channel functions between the two bridge bays; one channel for fish passage and the other to allow waters to bypass the bridge. Both channels were designed with hydraulic function and constructability in mind. The project included, but was not limited to: hydraulic modeling, working with public agencies, obtaining permits, vegetation mapping and planning for re-vegetation post construction, construction plans, construction
specifications, quantity calculations, and the development of opinion of probable cost.

Construction-related erosion can cause problems Workshop Agenda Workshop Registration for downhill property owners, clog storm drains, create flooding problems on adjacent streets, and lead to the sedimentation and silting of streams, reservoirs, and other water bodies.
Uncontrolled erosion is costly, violates state and federal pollution laws, and exposes those with oversight authority (landowners, developers, con-tractors, municipalities and consultants) to legal liability.
Fortunately, during construction most erosion and sedimentation problems can be prevented or greatly reduced through proper planning and im-plementation of simple and low-cost effective con-trol practices.
NPDES Requirements: New regulations require implementation of best management practices (BMPs), including incorporation of treatment measures in new and redevelopment projects during and after construction to minimize pollut-ant discharge for the life of the project.
Workshop Benefits: Acquire understanding of the State general permit requirements and how to comply; learn simple and effective BMP tools for your projects; receive information on monitoring, documentation, updating site plans, sampling and management approaches to stay in compliance; gain exposure to post construction/stormwater management techniques; C.3’s (Post BMPs); and the latest state and local regulation changes.

15. Abstract These Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for Stormwater Flow Measurement Verification are a companion document
to the User Guide for SOPs for Stormwater Flow Measurement Verification. This set of SOPs presents methods to (i)
verify the conditions required for accurate flow measurement, (ii) ensure that correct equipment operation and consistent
monitoring results are achieved, (iii) provide detailed guidance for stormwater flow monitoring, (iv) provide tools to
identify the source of measurement inaccuracies, (v) provide methods of adjusting flow measurement devices to ensure
accuracy, and (vi) provide troubleshooting guidance. This document provides easy-to-use reference tables. The document
defers to the User Guide for information on the important aspects of primary and secondary flow measurement device
usage, including principles of operation, hydraulic assumptions, and procedures for troubleshooting measurement errors
by storm data post processing or more intensive field investigations requiring site-specific design and potential
construction changes.
