HYDRA TMDL SYSTEMS INC.In September of 2014, the City of Los Angeles selected the Hydra ARS for installation and testing in the Koreatown district. Koreatown has a calibrated Continuous Deflection Separation (CDS) system installed to evaluate the effectiveness of Automatic Retractable Screen (ARS) and Connecting Pipe Screen designs. This area was selected due to the high volume of trash on the streets and the ability to monitor the efficiency of the Hydra TMDL system. The Koreatown district calculated an accurate effectiveness rate of the Hydra TMDL system by vaulting all minimum rainfall of 0.25 inch per hour to the CDS. The Hydra ARS received the highest BMP rating of 93% as a result of the testing of several competitor designs.www.hydratmdl.com

BEST MANAGEMENT PRODUCTSBMP’s new “Marina Kit” comes with a 12-inch SNOUT and a Bio-Skirt to help waterfront facilities clean up their most troublesome pollutants—trash and oil. The SNOUT is simple: It acts as a baffle. When installed in a sump catch basin, it skims the floatable trash off of the surface and allows heavier materials to sink to the bottom. The Bio-Skirt is a floating skirted-boom, which attaches to the SNOUT to target hydrocarbons like emulsified oils and PAHs.www.snoutsdirect.com

WATERSHED GEOWhat is Concrete-Enhanced Synthetic Turf (CEST), and how can you best apply it to your site to capitalize on the environmental benefits of vegetation and the performance and maintenance of hard armor? Speaker Bradford Cooley, P.E., will give a free webcast exploring CEST revetment systems, including key elements and applications, installation and design best practices, hydraulic and non-hydraulic performance results, and how to implement CEST to improve performance and reduce maintenance costs. The webcast will review CEST—key components, considerations, and how it works—details of hydraulic and non-hydraulic performance; testing; and benefits over traditional hard armor revetments (e.g., performance, application, installation, environment, and cost).www.watershedgeo.com
