A Performance-Based Design and Installation Standard for Sediment Basins

On-Demand

Sediment basins detain sediment from stormwater runoff and are heralded by industry and research for effective sediment capture. Sediment basin design and implementation vary nationwide, therefore producing varying results. Proper design and implementation of sediment basins are critical and must consider site-specific factors such as project duration, drainage areas, precipitation patterns, and other site parameters. This presentation will describe a sediment basin design and installation standard and design guidance developed through a comprehensive literature review of current state agency guidance and performance-based research. Sediment basin design components, including hydrology and capacity, geometry and placement, inflow channels, velocity dissipation, dewatering, auxiliary spillways, erosion control, safety, and flocculants, will be covered during this presentation. Tune in to find solutions for sediment basin design!

Assistant Professor

Oklahoma State University

Dr. Jaime Schussler is an assistant professor in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Oklahoma State University. Dr. Schussler’s research focuses on stormwater management, specializing in erosion and sediment control. Her work aims to find implementable solutions to manage increased stormwater runoff and sediment loads from construction, urban, agricultural, and reclamation sites. Her experience extends to surface water hydrology, water resources engineering, and surface water quality. 

Michael Perez, Ph.D., P.E., CPESC

Assistant Professor

Auburn University

Dr. Michael Perez is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Auburn University. He has been working in the stormwater management area since 2012 through research and consulting projects with the Alabama, Georgia, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Carolina, and Ohio DOTs. His expertise is in full-scale performance-based testing, having designed and conducted experiments evaluating storm drain inlet protection, ditch checks, sediment basins, sediment barriers, rolled erosion control products, and surface skimmers at the Auburn University Stormwater Research Facility. He currently serves as the Chair of the Standards and Practices Committee for the International Erosion Control Association. He is a Professional Engineer (PE) in the state of Alabama and is a Certified Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC).
