The functional servicing study submitted by the applicant is proposing to use the existing 1050 mm storm sewer on Banwell Road as the outlet to this site at a release rate of 38 L/s. The release rate was confirmed with RC Spencer Associates Inc. (retained by the City of Windsor to complete the engineering design of Phase 1 of the Banwell EA) and with Dillon Consulting limited (acting as peer-reviewer for the stormwater component).
RC Spencer and Dillon Consulting note:
“As long as the design for the proposed development area is considered in the Banwell storm design, then the 38 L/s is sufficient. For example, if the SWM design for the proposed development area is to be a pumped system, the prolonged pump out rate needs to be taken into consideration in the design of the Banwell system, including the impacts of a sustained hydraulic guideline. If the proposed development area is proposed to be a gravity outlet system, then the SWM strategy must take into consideration the potential of backwater effects on its system due to the surcharging of the future Banwell system during larger storm events.
In summary, the 38 L/s is adequate for an allowable release rate for the site.”
