Best Management Practices Design Guidance Manual for Hampton Roads

摘要

The manual, which provides guidance on the design of Best Management Practices for stormwater management, is divided into two parts. Part I focuses on a wide variety of practices that are suitable for small sites, especially single lot residential sites. Part II focuses on larger sites and emphasizes detention and retention facilities and the incorporation of wetlands into stormwater management facilities. Both Parts include discussion of maintenance requirements, other operational considerations, facility construction and operational costs and life expectancy.
