abstract = "This chapter emphasizes the value of considering the particle size distribution of solids and their associated pollutants when designing and analyzing stormwater treatment projects. Studies show particle size affects the type of treatment techniques best suited for removing pollutants and indicates a series of practices may be necessary to meet the more stringent goals required by Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) and the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) regulations. Also emphasized in this chapter are methods to calculate particle transport, calculations for including gross solids in efficiency calculations, and impact of the size distribution in designing filter systems to remove particles. The problems associated with collecting representative samples that include the variety of stormwater particle sizes, including the largest sizes, in studies conducted using automatic water quality samplers are also discussed. The contribution of gross solids (>100 um) has been overlooked in most stormwater monitoring efforts.",

note = "Funding Information: This project was funded in part by a Section 319(h) Nonpoint Source Management Program grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency through a contract with the Stormwater/nonpoint Source Management Section of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The total cost of construction and monitoring of the project is $540,934 and $342,560 of this is being provided by US EPA. David Worley and Eric Livingston of FDEP are invaluable in providing support and guidance. Rebecca Hastings, Kara Teague and Stan Kane have been indispensable in collecting and processing data. Gordon England has reviewed the draft report and his insight gained from studying similar devices added important information. Funding Information: We wish to extend our sincerest gratitude to WERF for funding this project (Project No. 97-IRM-2). This project also could not have been completed without the assistance of many graduate students at UA, at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, and at Penn State Harrisburg.
