The Trinity Middle School project aimed to revamp the existing facilities and parking areas, transforming them into a state-of-the-art educational institution.
One of the Trinity Middle School project's most critical aspects was stormwater runoff management. To address this concern, corrugated metal pipe (CMP) was selected as the material for the underground infiltration systems. This choice was made after careful consideration of various options, with the objective of finding the most cost-effective and economical solution that would meet the project's stormwater requirements and life cycle needs.
Engineers specified two CMP infiltration systems. The first used 552 LF of 84" diameter CMP, and the second used 4,130 LF of 36" diameter CMP.
The use of CMP for the underground infiltration systems provided a dual benefit. It not only fulfilled the stormwater management requirements of the project but also aligned with its long-term sustainability goals. This decision was a collaborative effort involving the contractor, the engineer of record, and the school administration.
In addition to CMP underground infiltration systems, the project also included a Jellyfish Filter. This filter, installed as part of the post-treatment strategy, further enhanced stormwater management and ensured compliance with environmental regulations.
By utilizing CMP for the underground infiltration systems and implementing the Jellyfish Filter for post-treatment, the project successfully addressed stormwater concerns, met regulatory requirements, and demonstrated a commitment to long-term environmental responsibility.
