The three (3) specific objectives are proposed in the project as follows:
(1) Field Work: To select Six (6) Bridge Sites, set up on-site sampling equipment including autosamplers and rain gage, etc., and obtain water samples of bridge stormwater runoff directly from scupper drains and instream water upstream and downstream of the bridges; (2) Lab Work: To identify the water quality parameters needed to be tested, test them using scientifically accepted methods in PI�s Water and Environment Research Lab (WERL) at Georgia Southern University (GSU), analyze the results and have a better understanding of scupper drain impacts on receiving water quality; and (3) Development of Simulation Tool: To apply SELDM with the test results on water quality obtained from the project and check if SELDM would be an effective simulation tool for evaluating the water quality impacts of the scupper drains on receiving waters. |
