Boem Berry Farms Inc. - Environmental Compliance Approval (sewage)

This proposal is for an Environmental Compliance Approval application serving Boem Berry Farms Inc., for the stormwater management works serving the Boem Berry Farms Phase 6 and 7 Greenhouse development site for collection, transmission, treatment, and disposal of stormwater run-off from the lands located at 526 Road 2 East, in the Town of Kingsville, County of Essex, Ontario.

The facilities consist of the following:

1. Roof water drainage pipe systems, discharging roof top runoff to the irrigation pond;
2. Swales and on-site storm sewers, discharging surface runoff to the stormwater detention pond;
3. One stormwater management detention/wet pond having an active storage volume of 44,064 cubic metres with a maximum active water depth of 4.894 metres for the 1:100-year storm event, discharging a maximum release rate of 65 litres per second into the Private Repko Drain;
4. One irrigation reservoir used to collect and store water. Water collected from roof runoff is to be used for irrigation purposes inside the greenhouse. Should the reservoirs be full, and a storm event happens, the reservoir will spill to the SWM pond;
5. One detention pond pump station discharging into the outlet structure (CBMH1) through two 100 millmetres diameter force main pipes and 375 millmetres diameter gravity pipe from pond which will act as a bypass when the pond is filled and there is a failure in pump;
6. One outlet structure (CBMH1) containing a 375 millmetres diameter outlet pipe with a lockable valve box and containment valve, and a flap gate on the 375 millmetres diameter inlet pipe from the pond.
7. One Oil Grit Separator (OGS) ADS model FD-4HC or approved equal serving the gravel parking and driveway areas;
8. One emergency overflow spillways from the detention pond directed to DICB1 for discharge to the North Jasperson Drain
