Basic concept<br />
http://stormwater.safl.umn.edu/
Why is it important to measure the<br />
infiltration rate<br />
• To determine performance and schedule<br />
maintenance<br />
‣An important indicator to determine the<br />
functionality <strong>of</strong> the stormwater BMPs.<br />
‣Accumulation <strong>of</strong> soil particles will reduce the<br />
infiltration rate <strong>of</strong> soil.<br />
‣Compaction during construction will reduce the<br />
infiltration rate <strong>of</strong> soil by reducing the pore<br />
volume.<br />

• Need ~20 infiltration measurements.<br />
• Need a device to measure the infiltration rate<br />
which is fast, simple and requires a lower volume<br />
<strong>of</strong> water.<br />

Results<br />
(MPD Infiltrometer)<br />
t • Saturated t hydraulic conductivity it (K sat ) and<br />
• Soil suction (C) <strong>of</strong> the upper ~30 cm <strong>of</strong> soil.<br />
• K sat : Indicates the ease with which water can<br />
move through the pore space when the soil is in<br />
saturated condition.<br />
• The attraction force that the soil exerts on the<br />
water is termed soil suction (C).<br />

Application and Advantage<br />
http://stormwater.safl.umn.edu/
Modified Philip Dunne Infiltrometer<br />
Application<br />
(MPD Infiltrometer)<br />
• K sat and C values- to calculate the drain time and amount <strong>of</strong> surface run<strong>of</strong>f.<br />
• To identify the hydrologic soil group.<br />
• Has been used in rain gardens, an infiltration basin, one swale and a study<br />
<strong>of</strong> tillage and compost to remediate compact soil.<br />
http://stormwater.safl.umn.edu/
Modified Philip Dunne Infiltrometer<br />
(MPD Infiltrometer)<br />
t Advantage <strong>of</strong> using the MPD Infiltrometer<br />
• Relatively l quick<br />
• Simple and inexpensive device<br />
• Requires less volume <strong>of</strong> water.<br />
• MPD measures the K sat value <strong>of</strong> the top 30 cm <strong>of</strong> media.<br />

Conclusions<br />
• Measurement <strong>of</strong> Ksat is important to determine<br />
performance and schedule maintenance.<br />
• We need to know the spatial distribution <strong>of</strong> K sat<br />
to estimate infiltration rate.<br />
• MPD infiltrometer is designed for spatial<br />
distribution<br />
– has been used at up to 20 locations simultaneously,<br />
allowing for up to 40 measurements per day, with a<br />
three-person team.<br />

Raingardens & Septic Systems<br />
• Both rely on soil for the acceptance and<br />
treatment <strong>of</strong> water<br />
• 36% <strong>of</strong> infiltration/filtration BMPs installed to<br />
meet Rice Creek Rules between 2003 and<br />
2007 failed.<br />
• 2% <strong>of</strong> SSTS (Septic Systems) constructed<br />
between 1984 and 2004 failed fildin Ottertail<br />
County.
Raingarden<br />
Septic System
Comparing Failures<br />
• When a rain garden fails, you generally have<br />
an unplanned pond, sometimes with an odor,<br />
that generally doesn’t fit in the landscape.<br />
• When a septic system fails, you have a oozing<br />
spring <strong>of</strong> human waste, which can stink to<br />
high heaven and make people sick.

What SHOULD be on the Site<br />
Evaluation<br />
• Surface Water Run<strong>of</strong>f Location(s)<br />
• Setbacks<br />
– Bedrock<br />
• Slope<br />
– Contours<br />
– Shape<br />
• System location<br />
– Scale<br />
• Site evaluation<br />
– Soil observations (description and number)<br />
– Percolation tests or water movement tests
MPCA Stormwater Manual, 2005<br />
Requires bulk density (or soil structure)<br />
Depth to seasonal saturation<br />
(redoximorphic features identification)
Blue Thumb’s Site Investigation<br />
From Blue Thumb Guide to Raingardens<br />
(summarized)<br />
• Find location that makes sense for drainage<br />
• Look for things to avoid (utilities, within 10’ <strong>of</strong><br />
home, soggy part <strong>of</strong> yard, bedrock)<br />
• Run infiltration test at site<br />
• Extrapolate tested rate to 24 hours to get<br />
maximum depth, with a max depth <strong>of</strong> 12<br />
inches.
Blue Thumb<br />
Infiltration ti testt<br />
• Dig 8” diameter hole, 8” deep<br />
• Fill with water<br />
• Wait one or two hours to saturate<br />
soil<br />
• Refill hole<br />
• Measure rate <strong>of</strong> drop at regular<br />
time intervals<br />
– Sand: 15 minute intervals, for 1 hour<br />
– Clay: hourly intervals, for 4 hours
Site Investigation Success<br />
• Using Blue Thumb site evaluation methods,<br />
only 1 out <strong>of</strong> 23 raingardens installed<br />
voluntarily as part <strong>of</strong> Rice Creek cost share<br />
program have failed, 4%.
Lessons Learned<br />
• Standardized site evaluations for infiltration‐<br />
based stormwater strategies will increase<br />
success rate<br />
• For regulatory sites, where large<br />
features/volumes are anticipated, adopting<br />
wastewater‐based site evaluations seem<br />
appropriate<br />
• Forms provide a checklist for design/review
Looking Forward…<br />
• Designers, Inspectors and Installers need<br />
additional training in soil and site evaluation<br />
– Rice Creek Watershed District is sponsoring a 1‐<br />
day soil and site evaluation workshop in May<br />
2011,<br />
– A certification program is another method for<br />
providing this additional training, or<br />
– LGUs oversee proper soil and site evaluations
