This session will describe how the traditional model of stormwater disposal has given way the evolution of on-site storage, pollutant and nutrient removal, pervious paving and much more.
Stormwater management has been called the last frontier in the business of water. For obvious reasons the drinking water and wastewater industries matured much earlier, but only recently has the full impact of stormwater runoff been thoroughly understood.
The future of stormwater management is firmly grounded in sustainable practices, including minimizing any negative impacts of land use and development, and understanding the positive results when sound planning and construction are carefully employed.
