WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO FIND?

CALCULATE NUTRIENT REMOVAL FROM MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES.

USE FSA TOOL FROM “QUANTIFYING NUTRIENT LOADS ASSOCIATED WITH URBAN PARTICULATE MATTER (PM) AND PRACTICES” REPORT BY SANSALONE, RAJE, AND BERRETTA.

CITY OF GAINESVILLE PERFORMS STREET SWEEPING, CATCH BASIN CLEANOUTS, AND BMP CLEANOUTS.

SWEEPINGS KEPT IN SINGLE STOCKPILE UNTIL HAULED TO TRANSFER STATION.

INVOICES MAINTAINED FROM TRANSFER STATION DOCUMENTING WEIGHT OF TRUCK.

WHAT ARE WE ALREADY DOING?

1. COLLECT TRANSFER STATION INVOICES

HOW DO WE CAPTURE THE DATA?

2. DELINEATE WATERSHEDS, STREET SWEEPING ZONES & RECLAIMED WATER AREAS

HOW DO WE CAPTURE THE DATA?

3. DETERMINE WEIGHT OF COLLECTED MATERIAL PER WATERSHED

HOW DO WE CAPTURE THE DATA?

3. DETERMINE WEIGHT OF COLLECTED MATERIAL PER WATERSHED

HOW DO WE CAPTURE THE DATA?

8 MI2 X 5.5 MILLION LBS COLLECTED = 33.5 TOTAL MI2 1 1.3M POUNDS COLLECTED IN HOGTOWN CREEK WATERSHED

4. MULTIPLY NUTRIENT CONCENTRATION BY TOTAL COLLECTED WEIGHT PER WATERSHED

HOW DO WE CAPTURE THE DATA?

X 361 MG/KG TP CONCENTRATION= 482 LBS REMOVED

X 563 MG/KG TN CONCENTRATION= 752 LBS REMOVED
