• Abstract:
  From May 2009 through June 2010, Herrera Environmental Consultants conducted hydrologic
  
  and water quality monitoring of a compost-amended biofiltration swale and a standard (control)
  
  biofiltration swale in the median of State Route 518 for the Washington State Department of
  
  Transportation. Herrera conducted this monitoring to obtain performance data that supports the
  
  issuance of a General Use Level Designation (GULD) for the compost-amended biofiltration
  
  swale from the Washington State Department of Ecology. This monitoring was performed in
  
  accordance with procedures described in Guidance for Evaluating Emerging Stormwater
  
  Treatment Technologies; Technology Assessment Protocol – Ecology (TAPE) (Ecology 2008).
  
  This document is a technical evaluation report on the compost-amended biofiltration swale,
  
  prepared by Herrera and based on results of the monitoring described above. The goal of this
  
  report is to demonstrate satisfactory performance of the compost-amended biofiltration swale for
  
  issuance of a GULD for basic, enhanced (dissolved metals removal) and oil treatment.
