| Sample Project: | Loram - Medina, Minnesota |
This LEED project involved design work for the construction of a new 2-story office addition, a new warehouse/production addition, associated parking areas, and driveways on a ± 32.5-acre site. Through construction design implementation by Sunde Engineering, pollution from construction activities was reduced by controlling soil erosion, airborne dust generation, and waterway sedimentation. To aid in stormwater quantity control and limit the disruption of natural hydrology, site imperviousness has been maintained at less than 50% and on-site infiltration of stormwater has been increased. Catchbasins now located in depressions in grassy areas allow for filtering and infiltration of stormwater runoff before it enters into the catchbasins. Stormwater quality is mitigated by utilizing increased onsite infiltration (via grassy area catchbasins), stringent best management practices, and stormwater management ponds to remove at least 80% of annual total suspended solids and at least 40% of the average annual total phosphorous based on the average annual loadings from all storms less than or equal to the 2-year/24-hour storm.
