CONTAINED IN VOL. 04.09, 2018 Defines the setting up and running of a test to determine the clear water flow rate at various depths of a floating sediment pond skimmer.

1.1This practice covers the setting up and running of a test to determine the clear water flow rate at various depths of a floating sediment pond skimmer.

1.2This practice is limited to large-scale test conditions, and does not address hydraulic modeling or pipe-flow based calculations.

1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.

1.4All observed and calculated values shall conform to the guidelines for significant digits and rounding established in Practice D6026, unless superseded by this standard.

1.5This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.6This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
