According to Chapter 9 of the Design Manual, hydrodynamic separators of the type proposed for this
 project have been approved for use as a pretreatment system in new and redevelopment projects or
 as a primary treatment system on redevelopment projects.

 According to Chapter 9 of the Design Manual, membrane filtration, of the type proposed for this project,
 has been approved for use as a primary treatment system on redevelopment projects.

 The following Table summarizes both the Water Quality Volume requirements and the treatment
 volumes provided.

 3.6 STEP 6 - Apply Volume and Peak Rate Control

 This report presents the pre-development and post-development features and conditions associated
 with the rate of surface water runoff within the study area. For both cases, the drainage patterns,
 drainage structures, soil types, and ground cover types are considered in this study.

 3.6.1  NYSDEC Requirements for New Development

 Chapter 4 of the Design Manual requires that projects meet three separate stormwater quantity
 criteria:

  1. The Channel Protection (CPv) requirement is designed to protect stream channels from
  erosion. This is accomplished by providing 24 hours of extended detention for the 1-year, 24-
  hour storm event. The Manual defines the CPv detention time as the center of mass detention
  time through each stormwater management practice.

  2. The Overbank Flood Control (Qp) requirement is designed to prevent an increase in the
  frequency and magnitude of flow events that exceed the bank-full capacity of a channel, and
  therefore must spill over into the floodplain. This is accomplished by providing detention
  storage to ensure that, at each Design Point, the post-development 10-year 24-hour peak
  discharge rate does not exceed the corresponding pre-development rate.

  3. The Extreme Flood Control (Qf) requirement is designed to prevent the increased risk of flood
  damage from large storm events, to maintain the boundaries of the pre-development 100-year
  floodplain, and to protect the physical integrity of stormwater management practices. This is
  accomplished by providing detention storage to ensure that, at each Design Point, the post-
  development 100-year 24-hour peak discharge rate does not exceed the corresponding pre-
  development rate.
