Part of: Design of Urban Runoff Quality Controls

Abstract:

Water quality criteria and goals may be addressed through at least four means: institution of 1) technology-based controls, 2) best management practice (BMP) based controls, 3) water quality standards-based controls, and 4) hydrology-based controls. This paper considers the relative characteristics, merits and linkages of the four options in the context of control of stormwater runoff quality.
