Summary
This Public Works Technical Bulletin (PWTB) addresses stormwater runoff management and nonpoint source (NPS) pollution controls through small, cost-effective landscape features known as Best Management Practices (BMPs). The goal of low impact development (LID) BMPs is to mimic a site’s pre-development hydrology by using design techniques to infiltrate, filter,
store, evaporate, and detain runoff close to the source.
