8.2 Proposed Stormwater Treatment Train

All site stormwater runoff from the site is proposed to pass through a three bio-retention basins adjacent to the
southern boundary of the allotment prior to discharging through the existing drainage infrastructure.

The efficiency of the proposed treatment train has been identified using the Model for Urban Stormwater Improvement
Conceptualisation (MUSIC V6.3.0) developed by Monash University.

A schematic layout of the treatment train, as input into the MUSIC model, is shown in Figure 3 below.

The Rainfall Runoff Parameters for the source catchment nodes have been taken from Table 3.7 of Water By Design’s
– MUSIC Modelling Guidelines, Version 1.0 (2010) and are shown in Table 2 below.

The pollutant load concentrations for the source catchment has been taken from Water By Design’s – MUSIC
Modelling Guidelines, Version 1.0 (2010) using the concentrations recommended for industrial areas.
