Environmental Science BureauUS Transportation CollectionTwo Stormwater Treatment Systems were instrumented and monitored in the field for oneyear to evaluate their effectiveness at contaminant removal. The Vortechs\uc2\uae and the V2b1TMwere both installed by the NYS Department of Transportation at locations in Long Island,NY and instrumented for this field study. They were evaluated by comparison of the inflowand the outflow concentrations, in order to determine their removal efficiency for sixparameters: TSS/VSS, TPH, TKN, TP, BOD5 and FCB. Samples were collected at eachsite during five storm events and lab analyses were performed at the Polytechnic Universitylaboratory, in Brooklyn, NY, following the Standard Method and EPA Procedures. Also,the costs for installation and maintenance were studied
