MassHighway has developed a draft
Herbicides Alternative Research
report in May 2007. The study
looked at the use of alternatives to
herbicides and the efficacy on the
type of roadside vegetation which
herbicides are used on by
MassHighway. The report found that
because of the cost of materials and
need for repeated seasonal
applications, all of the alternative
practices reviewed would cost more
than the use of conventional
herbicides. The alternative practices
will be useful and the cost will be
justified in situations where the use
of conventional herbicides is
undesired or prohibited.
2007 YOP was posted online by
Boston IT in April of 2007.

Continue to evaluate program and
implement changes as determined
beneficial. MassHighway will add
60 liquid tanks to assist in prewetting and anti-icing activities.
As outlined in BMP 6G,
MassHighway has made many
changes to its snow and ice control
program this last year. On Cape Cod,
we reduced our sand to salt ration
from 4:1 to 1:1 as of September 1,
2007 We also analyzed data and
found reduced salt zones have
significantly less material than other
spreader routes. Areas reviewed in
Boxford, Andover and Middleboro
all used 15-20 % less material
compared to other routes in the area.
Environmental
MassHighway will continue to
at least biannually evaluate its
snow and ice control policies
and operational programs in
order to make adjustments based
on data and experience, and to
respond to changing conditions.
Complete Year 1 summary report
with winter 2007/2008 data added.
MassHighway developed a six month
qualitative analysis of the monitoring
in May 2007 (Appendix G).
MassHighway has prepared a draft
Year 1 summary report but has not
finalized and is waiting to include
Winter 2007/2008 data.
1) Provide annual report on
progress each December and
include summary in annual

Review sheds: Increased
capacity of some sheds may be
justified because salt storage
needs have grown over time
and/or because the shed is in a
sensitive area and the salt
loading operations call for better
containment. In sensitive areas,
consideration should be given to
the use of Gambrel style sheds
that provide for the entire
operation to be conducted under
cover to minimize salt spillage
outside of the shed.
MassHighway will continue to
prioritize the identification and
selection of parcels being
considered for new salt storage
facilities, considering
operational needs and the
environmental setting.
MassHighway will continue to
replace or repair inadequate salt
storage sheds, as well as cover
sand piles and/or move them out
of wetland buffer zones.
Measurable Goal(s)
MassHighway will inspect fabric
sheds for repair needs.
MassHighway will maintain the

Personnel: In October 2006,
MassHighway hired a Director
of Snow & Ice Operations, with
over 20 years of experience in
winter operations, to improve
salt management and
supervision of deicing
operations.
Review Sand Piles:
MassHighway will strive to
locate sand piles outside
wetland buffer zones whenever
space allows. However, when
this is not possible the
department will work towards
storing sand piles under cover,
especially during the non-winter
months. This could be
accomplished by storing sand
within sheds or, more likely,
using a heavy-gauge
polyethylene tarp. The tarp
could be peeled back once,
before winter operations, and
then covered again at the end of
the season.
Measurable Goal(s)
Continue to look into fabric covers
for sand.
Director will continue to oversee
salt management and supervision of
deicing operations.
We will continue to work with our
personnel and hired contractors to
follow all SOP’S relative to salt
handling, storage and proper
application.
MassHighway is making every effort
to reduce the amount of sand we
spread. The stockpiled sand
currently is not covered but we are
looking to find pricing for fabric
covers. Because of operational
challenges, we do not currently use
tarps. MassHighway makes every
effort to stockpile sand outside the
wetland buffer zones.
Director has continued to improve
salt management and supervision of
deicing operations.
At all of our training activities,
including the tail-gate training
sessions, MassHighway emphasizes
the need for continual attention to
“Good House Keeping “ and
attention to detail is enforced.

The site survey and investigation of the questionable MassHighway
outfall was performed on May 8th, 2007. The drainage feature consisted
of a 15” cast iron projecting pipe, four catch basins in the shoulder of the
westbound lane, two catch basins in the shoulder of the eastbound lane,
and two manholes. During their review, there was a discharge observed
at the site. The sample results demonstrate a high level of specific
conductance, which could potentially be explained by the de-icing of
Route 110 by road salt. Considering the volume of late-spring snow
events, it is not unlikely that some amount of road salt would be
discovered in highway runoff. All other parameters analyzed were nondetects. Based on the sample results and the visual review of the area, we
feel that the dry weather discharge is most likely from groundwater
intrusion into the drainage system and no further action is warranted.

The drainage feature consisted of a 15” cast iron projecting pipe and a
catch basin in the shoulder of the eastbound lane. The staff noted an oily
sheen present at the outfall. There were no apparent connections or
discharges noted at the site at the time of the inspection. Since ENSR
staff did not observe flow, sampling activities were not conducted and no
further investigation was warranted.

Reviewed on May 9, 2007, staff noted several garden-type hoses hooked
into a catch basin. A black 1” flexible hose protruded from the
foundation of the residence at 215 Main Street. . There was no discharge
observed at the time of the inspection. Since there was no discharge
observed, the field crew was not able to pursue sampling activities. The
outfall for this catch basin could not be located; however the catch basin
was dry. There was visual evidence to suggest that the hose had been
flowing in the past. District 4 Permit Engineer will visit the site and send
a certified letter to 215 Main Street as required by the Drainage
Connection Policy requiring the homeowner to take appropriate action.
The site survey and investigation of the questionable MassHighway
outfall in Billerica on Rt. 3A (Boston Road) was performed on May 8th,
2007 during dry weather conditions. The drainage feature consisted of a
culvert, a paved waterway on both sides of Route 3A, and a drainage
manhole in the middle of the road. This outfall was brought to our
attention as a possible illicit discharge during ENSR’s drainage inventory.
The staff noted an oily sheen and garbage present at the outfall. There
were no apparent connections or discharges noted at the site at the time of
the inspection. There was also no flow from the discharge; therefore
sampling activities were not conducted.
The site survey and investigation of the questionable MassHighway
outfall in Haverhill was performed on May 9th, 2007. The outfall was on
the eastern side of the ramp, down a steep embankment. The drainage
feature consisted of a reinforced concrete headwall with an 18” opening
and two catch basins. There was a discharge observed at the site at the
time of the inspection. The outfall in question was discharging directly
into a larger water feature at the bottom of the embankment. There was a
cloudy, white precipitate observed directly below the outfall. The sample
results demonstrate a high level of specific conductance, which could
potentially be explained by the de-icing of the on-ramps to I-495 by road
salt. Considering the volume of late-spring snow events, it is not unlikely
that some amount of road salt would be discovered in highway runoff.
The pH level (6.2) was also outside the recommended thresholds (typical
stormwater discharge pH values range from 6.5 -8.5). All other
parameters analyzed were non-detects. District 4 staff will follow-up
with a site visit and perform a more thorough inspection of the entire
contributing drainage system.

The site survey and investigation of the questionable MassHighway
outfall was performed on May 9th, 2007 during dry weather conditions.
The drainage feature consisted of a catch basin in the shoulder of Rt. 127
directly connected to an outfall pipe that discharges into the creek. There
are identical features on the north and south side of Rt. 127. There were
no apparent connections or discharges noted at the site at the time of the
inspection. Since ENSR staff did not observe flow, sampling activities
were not conducted and no further investigation is warranted.
The sample results demonstrate a high level of specific conductance,
which could potentially be explained by the de-icing of Route 3 and local
roads by road salt. Considering the volume of late-spring snow events, it
is not unlikely that some amount of road salt would be discovered in
highway runoff. The sample also returned elevated fecal coliform levels.
The pH level (8.8) was also outside the recommended thresholds (typical
stormwater discharge pH values range from 6.5 -8.5). All other
parameters analyzed were non-detects. District 4 staff will follow-up
with the homeowner and further inspection of the drainage system.
The hose/ wire observed was assumed to be an intake pump, however this
was not confirmed with the homeowner. Upon following the catch basins
across Rt. 3, the field crew identified a small brook that was running
across/ under Fernway St., and down a large hill. It was assumed that the
flow observed from the outfall was in fact a stream that had been diverted
underground; however the crew took a sample of the outfall for analysis.
The site survey and investigation of the questionable MassHighway
outfall was performed on May 8th, 2007. The drainage feature consisted
of a 15” clay projecting pipe and a series of catch basins across Rt. 3.
During the review, the cable and pipe were still present and there was a
discharge from the outfall.

The site survey and investigation of the questionable MassHighway
outfall in Saugus on Rt. 107 (Salem Turnpike) was performed on May 8th,
2007 during dry weather conditions. . The drainage feature consisted of
a projecting concrete pipe, a catch basin on the western side of Rt. 107,
and a drainage manhole on the Porter’s Seafood Property. It appeared
that a portion of the outfall pipe had broken and cracked off. This outfall
was brought to our attention as possible illicit discharge during ENSR’s
drainage inventory. There were no apparent connections or discharges
noted at the site at the time of the inspection. Since the consultant’s staff
did not observe flow, sampling activities were not conducted and no
further investigation was determined needed..
The sample results demonstrate a high level of specific conductance,
which could potentially be explained by the de-icing of Route 1 by road
salt. The suspended solids identified could also be attributed to the
presence of road salt/ sand. Considering the volume of late-spring snow
events, it is not unlikely that some amount of road salt would be
discovered in highway runoff. Fecal coliform results were non-detect,
signifying a continuing decrease in bacteria concentrations at this outfall.
The District crews will review the upstream drainage system in more
detail to rule out the possibility of illicit connections.
The site survey and investigation of the questionable MassHighway
outfall was performed on May 8th, 2007 during dry-weather conditions.
The drainage feature consisted of a broken 15” corrugated metal pipe, a
concrete headwall, a manhole, and two catch basins in the shoulder of the
southbound lane of Route 1. According to MyWRA, this outfall had
exceeded the proposed secondary contact standards for Enterococcus spp.
There was a discharge observed at the site at the time of the inspection.
The drainage feature consisted of a concrete headwall that discharges into
the wetland, two catch basins on the Route 1 on/off-ramps, and a manhole
on the southern side of the northbound Rt. 1 off-ramp for Route 16. This
outfall was brought to MassHighway’s attention as a possible illicit
discharge by the Mystic River Watershed Association (MyRWA). This
outfall had exceeded the proposed secondary contact standards for
Enterococcus spp. There were no apparent connections or discharges
noted at the site at the time of the inspection. Since the consultant’s staff
did not observe flow, sampling activities were not conducted.

Environmental consultant (ENSR) reviewed the bridge drainage during
recent field work activities and ascertained that that the bridge does not
drain to the outfall at the east end of California Street. Based on the
physical location of the outfall and the ownership of California Street,
this outfall is likely owned/ maintained by the Town of Watertown. Letter
sent by MassHighway to Roger Frymire dated June 20, 2007 with this
information.
The Jamaicaway abuts the pond to the east and Willow Pond Road to the
north. Both of these roads are owned by DCR. MassHighway’s drainage
inventory in this area, which relied upon inventory performed by the
Town of Brookline along Route 9, indicated that the drainage from Route
9 discharges approximately 0.4 miles to the north of Willow Pond.
Therefore, the discharge in question is most likely owned by DCR. Letter
sent by MassHighway to Roger Frymire dated June 20, 2007 with this
information.

May 2007
MassHighway developed a Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) under the EPA NPDES Phase II
Stormwater Program, General Permit for MS4s in Massachusetts. As one of its measurable goals,
MassHighway proposed a three-year study of sediment accumulation in catch basins for representative road
categories. The purpose of the study, which was initiated in October 2006, is to track the accumulation of
sediment in selected catch basins and determine an appropriate catch basin cleaning schedule for road
categories. This memorandum is a six-month qualitative analysis intended to summarize trends identified
during the first six months of the study.
1)
Catch Basin Selection
The first step in this study was to define distinct categories of catch basin types which may be used for setting
cleaning schedules in the future. Discussions with maintenance staff at District 4 led to the identification of the
five following categories:
1. High Accumulation Area
2. High Traffic/ Standard Winter Deicing Protocols
3. High Traffic/ Reduced Salt Area
4. Low Traffic/ Standard Winter Deicing Protocols
5. Low Traffic/ Reduced Salt Area
The categories reflect the different types of roads owned by MassHighway and the different salting/sanding
practices. “High accumulation areas” are typically along high volume roadways at low points along walls or
with overhanging growth that might significantly contribute to sediment accumulation. “Standard winter deicing
protocols” refers to the application of straight salt at the rate of 240 pounds/lane mile. For designated reduced
salt zones of sand/salt or sand/pre-mix (pre-mix is calcium chloride flakes mixed with salt in the following
proportion - 20% calcium chloride, 80% salt) is applied at the rate of 240 pounds/lane mile according to
MassHighway protocol. “Reduced salt areas” are areas where sand and pre-mix is applied to the roadway at
a one-to-one ratio to reduce the amount of sodium in environmentally sensitive areas. MassHighway also may
use plowing, direct liquid application of calcium chloride, and/or salt pre-treated with liquid calcium chloride to
further reduce sodium chloride applications. Roadways within reduced salt zones often drain to either a public
water supply or areas containing a large concentration of private wells.
Next, ENSR identified representative areas within each category and determined the number of catch basins
to include in the study. ENSR performed a statistical analysis to determine the number of catch basins
required for a valid mean within each cleaning category. For each category, a sample size of ten would
achieve 80 percent certainty that each measurement is within 20 percent of the mean (where the mean is the
average amount of accumulated sediment in the catch basins). Categories 2 and 3 include subsets of ramp
and mainline catch basins, so a total of seventy catch basins were selected. Before they were finalized,
MassHighway District 4 staff and ENSR technical staff field-verified each selected catch basin (and roadway)
to make sure it was appropriate and accessible.

Literature Review
ENSR performed a literature review to gather information regarding cleaning frequencies, sediment
accumulations, and catch basin effectiveness. Throughout the study, information will be used to assist with
data analysis and research will continue. Relevant findings to date are summarized below.
State of Washington (and several other states) requires that a catch basin be cleaned if the depth of
deposits is equal to or greater than one-third the depth from the basin to the invert of the lowest pipe
into or out of the basin. If a catch basin is found during the annual inspections to significantly exceed
this standard, it shall be cleaned every six months” (http://www.ecy.wa.gov/pubs/93015.pdf).
One study (Pitt, 1985) concluded that catch basins can capture sediments in up to approximately 60%
of the sump volume. When sediment fills greater than 60% of the sump volume, catch basins reach
steady state. Storm flows may then bypass the sump treatment as well as resuspend sediments
trapped in the sump. Frequent clean-out can retain the volume in the catch basin sump available for
treatment of stormwater flows (http://www.stormwatercenter.net/Pollution_Prevention_Factsheets/
CatchBasins.htm).
Several districts in California clean catch basins before the sump is 40% full. During wet seasons
(typically October – May) and in areas of high accumulation, more frequent cleanings become
necessary (http://www.cabmphandbooks.com/Documents/Municipal/SC­
74.pdf#search=%22catch%20basin% 20cleaning%20epa%22).
Two studies suggest that increasing the frequency of maintenance can improve the performance of
catch basins, particularly in industrial or commercial areas. One study of sixty catch basins in Alameda
County, California, found that increasing the maintenance frequency from once per year to twice per
year increased the total sediment removed by catch basins on an annual basis (Mineart and Singh,
1994). Annual sediment removed per inlet was 54 pounds for annual cleaning, 70 pounds for semi­
annual and quarterly cleaning, and 160 pounds for monthly cleaning. For catch basins draining
industrial uses, monthly cleaning increased total annual sediment collected to six times the amount
collected by annual cleaning (180 lbs. versus 30 lbs.). These results suggest that (at least for industrial
uses) more frequent cleaning of catch basins may improve removal efficiency. However, the cost of
increased operation and maintenance costs needs to be weighed against the improved pollutant
removal (http://www.stormwatercenter.net/Pollution_Prevention_Factsheets/CatchBasins.htm).

Initial Steps
MassHighway cleaned catch basins via clamshell bucket in October 2006, approximately two weeks before
collecting the first round of monitoring data. At that time, ENSR documented background information
regarding each catch basin (including pipe configurations and sump depths). Part of documenting the
background information was to make sure that the catch basins chosen are representative of catch basins
statewide. Approximately 40% of the basins in the study are part of catch basin systems (“flow through”
basins) and 60% are “stand-alone basins” (e.g., have only a discharge pipe). Sump depths range from 1 to 5
feet; approximately 80% of the catch basins have sump depths greater than 2 feet.
In January 2007, 10 catch basins were substituted because their sumps were less than one foot deep, which
would provide limited data regarding sediment accumulation. An eleventh catch basin was substituted
because the location was too dangerous for staff during monitoring. The project database was updated to
reflect the changes.

Figure 1 presents data MassHighway provided ENSR regarding the amounts of sand that were applied to
MassHighway roads (in the study area) during storm events. (Amounts of salt and premix were also recorded,
but not plotted because both would melt, not accumulate, in the catch basins.) Generally speaking, the winter
of 2006-2007 was a fairly mild winter in terms of snowfall, which affected the amount of sand that was applied
to roadways in the study area. Tracking sand data will be helpful in making seasonal and annual comparisons
over the next two and a half years.

Summary of Findings
Study categories were selected to provide comparisons between different deicing practices for the same type
of roadway. Reduced salt areas (e.g. more sand is applied) and areas where standard deicing protocols are
followed (e.g. more salt and premix is used, both of which melt, not accumulate, in a catch basin sump) on
both high traffic and low traffic roadways were compared. Figure 2 indicates that during the winter months,
when there were snow events, more sediment accumulated in the reduced salt category catch basins than
those in standard deicing areas located along both high traffic and low traffic roadways.
Figure 2 indicates that the average sediment accumulation in high accumulation areas was much greater than
in other categories in November 2006. Review of the field data indicates that most of the accumulated
material is leaves, which likely deteriorate or flow out of the catch basin between accumulation measurements.
The section of roadway is also on a hill, and observed accumulation rates suggest that leaves likely
accumulated at low points (e.g., within the category, downgradient catch basins exhibited higher accumulation
rates).

Reservoir is adjacent to 128 in Towns of Lexington,
Lincoln, Waltham, and Weston. There is a designated
reduced salt zone for this area covering 24.6 linear miles
and 177.8 lane miles in the vicinity covering sections of
Route 2, 2A and 128.
Poly style storage was constructed in 2001 where there
previously was no outside storage from 1998 through 2001.
Based on monthly sampling, Town requested a reduced salt
zone along I-93 and I-495 and relocation of the salt storage
shed via July 2004 correspondence. Section of I-495 and 93
has been designated as a reduced salt zone. Reduced salt
zone first implemented in 2005-2006 winter season.
Investigation Complete. Classified as a public water supply
and all actions need to be coordinated w/ MaDEP.
MassHighway Counsel finalized a settlement agreement
with owner in September 2005. DEP issued permit for
siting of test well on July 14, 2006. First well replacement
attempt failed due to hydraulic connection to Lake
Wildwood, which would have required small PWS to meet
Surface Water Treatment rule. Second attempt constructed
in January 2007. This well was connected in November
2007. We will need to conduct additional micro-particulate
analysis per MaDEP requirements.

In a letter written to DEP and dated June 19, 2002, District 3
committed to an increased schedule of inspection of catch
basins every six months, with cleaning as determined necessary
in inspections, and annual sweeping of roads in this watershed.
Also, MH has begun a CB Accumulation Study (BMP 6C-3) to
review the accumulation trends in catch basins. The study
includes review of accumulation data in five different roadway
and winter deicing areas for three years. Upon completion of
the review, MH will update that Catch Basin Cleaning SOP, if
determined necessary, and implement the SOP.
See response above (#4) regarding maintenance schedule
commitments. The letter committed to inspection and cleaning,
if necessary of all sumped drainage structures twice a year and
more often if necessary; inspection/ cleaning of drainage outlet
locations where sediment build up is evident; and inspection
and repair of damaged and/or clogged drainage conveyances.
4. Visually inspect the roads monthly and sweep as needed. At a minimum,
roads must be swept at least twice a year as soon after snowmelt as possible or
by April 1st of each year and again in the fall.
5. Inspect catch basins at least twice a year and any other settling or detention
basins once a year to measure depth of solids. If solids are one half or more of
design volume for solids, then completely remove all solids.

a goal of meeting the water quality standard for bacteria in SA waters. Given
this is a waterway with an approved TMDL, the MHD must meet the

--
The Massachusetts Highway Department should determine the Route 28
roadway drainage discharging to Muddy Creek and install best management
structures and/or operational practices to the maximum extent practicable with
a goal of meeting the water quality standard for bacteria in SA waters. Given
this is a waterway with an approved TMDL, the MHD must meet the
requirements of EPA's NPDES General Permit for Stormwater Discharges from
small MS4s (Phase II), Part i D(1-4), as it pertains to approved TMDLs."
MassDEP has not deferred to the Route 28 reconstruction project since we do
not have any information about the extent or the time schedule for it. MassDEP
also suggests that the MassHighway Dept. work with the Town of Chatham to
work out a reasonable schedule for these activities.
TMDL suggests MassHighway should regulate road sanding, salting, regular
sweeping, and installation of BMPs for this pond.

MassHighway has proposed a catchbasin inspection and
maintenance record system in its SWMP (BMP 6C-4).
MassHighway has very limited maintenance budgets and staff,
therefore we feel that the cost-effectiveness, and necessity of
cleaning catch basins twice per year should be closely evaluated
rather than arbitrarily set. Consequently, MH has begun a CB
Accumulation Study (BMP 6C-3) to review the accumulation
trends in catch basins. The study includes review of
accumulation data in five different roadway and winter deicing
areas for three years. Upon completion of the review, MH will
update that Catch Basin Cleaning SOP, if determined necessary,
and implement the SOP.
3. MH along with the town of Spencer, control nonpoint source pollution
targeting for State Routes 9, 31 and 49 by requiring roadway sweeping and
catch basin inspection/cleaning twice a year or other approved BMPs.

4. MH and the town of Spencer must maintain or improve all existing BMPs or
the permittee may install infiltration or other BMPs and document a total
reduction of 29% of the total phosphorus loading to receiving waters to control
the stormwater discharges within the watershed. To do this, MH and the town
of Spencer must either conduct roadway sweeping in the spring and fall
combined with annual catch basin inspection and cleanout to restore 80% or
more of the solids storage volume anytime the available solids storage volume
is less than 50%.
