In this study, the Regional Transportation District's (RTD's) light rail operations were examined for pollutant production and runoff. Conclusions from the study: Water leaving ballasted tracks carries only a small fraction of the heavy metals that are introduced into tracks from the light rail operations. Heavy metal concentrations at the most heavily traveled light rail station showed that pollutant concentrations were far below the regulatory limits....

Description
In this study, the Regional Transportation District's (RTD's) light rail tracks were modeled to determine the Rational Method runoff coefficient, C, values corresponding to ballasted tracks. The runoff coefficient for ballasted tracks is significantly larger than the previously tabulated values for railroad yards. The higher runoff coefficient reflects the design of ballasted tracks to drain rainfall as quickly as possible.

Description
The goal of this project is to investigate the hydraulic efficiencies of Type 13 (bar inlets), Type 16 (vane inlets), and Type R (curb-opening inlets) for street and roadway drainage. Although these inlets have been widely used in many metropolitan areas, the design empirical formulas and coefficients have not been verified.

"Development of natural areas, as is occurring in Colorado, increases demand for and costs of wildfire protection. Colorado State University analysis projects that the state's wildland-urban interface (WUI) areas will increase from 715,500 acres in 2000 to 2,161,400 acres in 2030, a 300-percent increase.
