POOL DRAWDOWN At the time of pool closure for the season or anytime the pool needs to be drained the chlorine shall be reduced to undetectable levels (<O.1 mg/1). This can be accomplished by utilizing either of the two (2)methods listed below: • Prior to discharging the no chlorine shall be added to the pool for approximately ten days to allow chlorine levels to dissipate. • Discharge water shall be de-chlorinated utilizing sodium thiosulphate or other approved pool de-chlorination chemicals approved by DEP for use in watershed areas. • The de-chlorinated water shall then be discharged over the grassy lawn surfaces or planting areas prior to entering into the wooded portion of the yard. POOL OVERFLOWS To prevent the overtopping of chlorinated pool water during a 100-year storm event, whenever a severe storm event is predicted the pool level shall be drained to a level to permit the collection of 7-inches of rain. 1 BMP MAINTENANCE RAIN GARDENS Rain gardens should be inspected following large rain events for displaced mulch and repaired as needed Inspect and remove trash monthly Mulch, fertilize,remove dead vegetation and prune—annually Replace dead plants as needed 2
