WSDOT HRM Spreadsheet Guide
WSDOT HRM Spreadsheet Guide
This spreadsheet is a companion to the WSDOT 2019 Highway Runoff Manual (HRM) and is used to determine a given Project's Minimum Requirements
as well as specific requirements for each TDA (where applicable). It is required for the preparation of WSDOT Hydraulic Reports and helps the designer
gather information needed for the Stormwater Design NEPA/SEPA Documentation Checklist used for a Project's environmental documentation.
The HRM has been deemed equivalent to Ecology's Stormwater Management Manuals for Eastern and Western WA. However, numeric references to
chapters and minimum requirements in this spreadsheet are specific to the HRM and differ in naming from Ecology's manuals. Please contact the
WSDOT HQ Hydraulics Section if you have any questions or comments about this spreadsheet.
Instructions:
1 Start at the tab "Step 1 through Step 4" and Input information into grey unlocked cells. Read the instructions in the yellow boxes at the bottom of the tab.
2 If necessary, on the "Step 5 and 6" tab, input information into grey unlocked cells. Read the instructions in the yellow boxes at the bottom of the tab.
3 If necessary, on the "Step 7 RT" tab, input information into grey unlocked cells. Read the information in the yellow boxes for each TDA. This tab deals
with the runoff treatment Minimum Requirement.
4 If necessary, on the "Step 8" tab, input information into grey unlocked cells. Read the information in the yellow boxes for each TDA. This tab deals with
the flow control Minimum Requirement.
5 Fill out the information asked on the "Level of Retrofit" tab. See HRM 3-4 for more details on where and when retrofit requirements and opportunities
occur on WSDOT projects.
6 Fill out the information asked on the "BMPs_New_or_Modified" tab and "BMPs_Removed_or_Modified" tab if the TDA is providing runoff treatment or
flow control using stormwater BMPs and/or removing existing stormwater BMPS.
7 Fill out the table on this tab showing how many proposed structures will be placed on the project.
The tabs "Step 1 through Step 4", "Step 5 and 6", "Step 7 RT", and "Step 8 FC" refer to the HRM Figures 3.1 -
3.3. The tab "Level of Retrofit" refers to the HRM 3-4.
NOTE: The spreadsheet version number is shown as a footnote on the printout of each sheet. See the HRM revisions website at
http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Design/Hydraulics/HighwayRunoffManual.htm for the current version number being used.
