CURRENT WATER QUALITY BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES DESIGN GUIDANCE
The objective is to document current Best Management Practices (BMP) design guidance. A BMP mitigates adverse stormwater impacts (quantity or quality, or both) associated with land development activities. The water quality benefits of BMPs in treating urban stormwater runoff are the focus. Several BMPs are described in terms of their applicability, pollutant removal efficiency, and general design parameters. These include extended detention ponds, wet ponds, infiltration trenches and basins, sand filters, porous pavement, and vegetative practices (including constructed wetlands).
