STEP 1 Determine the applicable area (A) and the post -developed impervious cover
(Ipos)•
Applicable area (A)* = 1.093 acres
Post -development impervious cover:

acres
Total — 0.148 acres
Ipost = (total post -development impervious cover _ A) x 100 = 13.52
* The area subject to the criteria may vary from locality to locality. Therefore,
consult the locality for proper determination of this value.
STEP 2 Determine the average land cover condition (lwatmhed) Dr the existing
impervious cover (Iexistfng)•
Average land cover condition (T,atershed)
If the locality has determined land cover conditions for individual watersheds within its
jurisdiction, use the watershed specific value determined by the locality as Iwatershed-
_ o/O Iwatershed
Otherwise, use the Chesapeake Bay default value:

STET' 3 Determine the appropriate development situation.
The site information determined in STEP 1 and STEP 2 provide enough information to
determine the appropriate development situation under which the performance criteria will apply.
Check (✓) the appropriate development situation as follows:
,/ Situation 1: This consists of land development where the existing percent impervious
cover (Iexisting) is less than or equal to the average land cover condition
(Iwatershed) and the proposed improvements will create a total percent
impervious cover (Ip°s) which is less than or equal to the average land

Situation 2: This consists of land development where the existing percent impervious
cover (Iexisting) is less than or equal to the average land cover condition
(Iwatershed) and the proposed improvements will create a total percent
impervious cover (Ipos) which is greater than the average land cover
condition (Iwatershed)-
Iexisting 0.00 % < Iwatershed 16 %; and
Ipost 13.52 % i Iwatershed 1 6 %
Situation 3: This consists of land development where the existing percent impervious
cover (Iexisting) is ,greater than the average land cover condition (Iwatershed)•
existing 0 �" > Iwatershed %
Situation 4: This consists of land development where the existing percent impervious
cover (Iexisting) is served by an existing stormwater management BMP(s)
that addresses water quaff.
If the proposed development meets the criteria for development Situation 1, than the low
density development is considered to be the BMP and no pollutant removal is required.
The calculation procedure for Situation 1 stops here. If the proposed development meets
the criteria for development Situations 2, 3, or 4, then proceed to STEP 4 on the
appropriate worksheet.

STEP 4 Determine the relative pre -development pollutant load (Lprd.
Lpre(watershed) = [0.05 + (0.009 x Iwatershed)] x A x 2.28 (Equation 5-16)
where: Lpre(watershed) = relative pre -development total phosphorous load (pounds per year)
Iwatershed = average land cover condition for specific watershed or locality Dr
the Chesapeake Bay default value of 16% (percent expressed in
whole numbers)
A = applicable area (acres)
Lpre(watershed) — [0.05 + (0.009 x 16 )] x 1.093 x 2.28

STEP 5 Determine the relative post -development pollutant load (LP.j.
Lpost = [0.05 + (0.009 x 4,,j] x A x 2.28 (Equation 5-21)
where: Lpost = relative post -development total phosphorous load (pounds per
year)
1post = post -development percent impervious cover (percent expressed in
whole numbers)
A = applicable area (acres)
Lpost = [0.05 + (0.009 x 13.52 )] x 1.093 x 2.28

STEP 6 Determine the relative pollutant removal requirement (RR).
RR = Lpost - Lpre(watershed)

STEP 7 Identify best management practice (BMP) for the site.
1. Determine the required pollutant removal efficiency for the site:
EFF = ( RR = Lpost ) x 100
(Equation 5-22)
where: EFF = required pollutant removal efficiency (percent expressed in whole
numbers)
RR = pollutant removal requirement (pounds per year)
Lpost = relative post -development total phosphorous load (pounds per
year)
EFF = ( — ) x 100

Biofilter #2 removes 0.28 pounds per year of phosphorous. The drainage area of Biofilter #2 is
less than (I watershed) 16% impervious but we need to go above and beyond to show its
removal. There is some science to show that providing whips on the 2:1 slope open space will
reduce the amount of pounds per year phosphorous more than the Biofilter #2. The trading
nutrient reductions nonpoint source BMP in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Appendix A gives
0.50 pounds per year of phosphorous for each #rg�pf land conversion going from Pasture to
Forest in the James River Basin west of 1-95. While we are not applying to become our own
nutrient credit bank, adding 0.56 acres of whips essentially converts the grassed area to forest
and we would get 0.28 pounds per year of phosphorous removed.
