Rationale

Until now there has been little to no scientifically sound, repeatable, full scale testing methodology that replicates field conditions to test and determine SCD performance. This new standard includes full scale test methodology for five types of SCDs: curb opening protection, inlet protection, in-flow/check dam and perimeter protection, sediment curtains and barriers and lastly dewatering bags and devices. The data that are measured and recorded from these methods are: % turbidity reduction, % flow rate reduction, and % solids removal.
