Biofiltration Soil Media (BSM) is intended to filter storm water and support plant growth while minimizing the leaching of potential pollutants. This specification includes requirements that apply to BSM used in stormwater treatment BMPs, including biofilt ration and biofiltration.
Biofiltration Soil Media is also referred to as Engineered Soil Media and Bioretention Soil Media.

For biofiltration/biofiltration with outlet- controlled designs, it is likely that topsoil will need to be omitted or reduced to achieve permeability targets. Alternative mix components and proportions may be utilized, provided that the whole blended mix conforms to whole BSM criteria, detailed in Section 803-2.3 through 803-2.5. Alternative mix designs may include alternative proportions and/or alternative organic amendments. Alternative mixes are subject to approval by the County.
Alternative mixes that use an altern ative organic component (rather than compost) may be necessary when BMPs are installed in areas with nitrogen or phosphorus impaired receiving waters in order to meet more stringent BSM quality requirements as detailed in Section 803-2.5.
ADD 803-2.2 Testing and Submittals.
At least 30 days prior to ordering materials, the Contractor shall submit the following to the County reviewer (upon request): source/supplier of BSM, location of source/supplier, a physical sample of the BSM, whole BSM test results from a third- party inde pendent laboratory, test

results for individual component materials as required, and description of proposed methods and schedule for mixing, delivery, and placement of BSM. The test results shall be no older than 120 days and shall accurately represent the materials and feed stoc ks that are currently available from the supplier.
Test results shall demonstrate conformance to agronomic suitability and hydraulic suitability criteria listed in Sections 803 -2.3 and 803 -2.4, respectively. BSM for use in BMPs in areas with water quality impairments in receiving waters shall also comply w ith applicable Chemical Suitability criteria in Section 803-2.5. No delivery, placement, or planting of BSM shall begin until test results confirm the suitability of the BSM. The Contractor shall submit a written request for approval which shall be accompanied by written analysis results from a written report of a testing agency. The testing agency must be registered by the State for agronomic soil evaluation laboratory test fees shall be paid for by the Contractor.

Limits may be waived at the discretion of the County if it is determined that it is unreasonable to meet the specification using locally-available materials (available within 100 miles).
ADD 803-2.5.2 Testing.
Potential for pollutant leaching shall be assessed using either the Saturated Media Extract Method (aka, Saturation Extract) that is commonly performed by agronomic laboratories or the Synthetic Precipitation Leaching Procedure (SPLP) (EPA SW-846, Method 1312).
