DOWNLOAD EBOOKPrepared byØtheØTask Committee of the Urban Water Resources Research Council of ASCE. Copublished by ASCE and the Water Environment Federation. Design and Construction of Urban Stormwater Management Systems presents a comprehensive examination of the issues involved in engineering urban stormwater systems. This Manual?which updates relevant portions of Design and Construction of Sanitary and Storm Sewers, MOP 37?reflects the many changes taking place in the field, such as the use of microcomputers and the need to control the quality of runoff as well as the quantity. Chapters are prepared by authors with experience and expertise in the particular subject area. The Manual aids the practicing engineer by presenting a brief summary of currently accepted procedures relating to the following areas: financial services; regulations;Ø surveys and investigations;Ø design concepts and master planning;Ø hydrology and water quality;Ø storm drainage hydraulics; andØ computer modeling.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe rapid conversion of land to urban and suburban areas has profoundly altered how water flows during and following storm events, putting higher volumes of water and more pollutants into the nation's rivers, lakes, and estuaries. These changes have degraded water quality and habitat in virtually every urban stream system. The Clean Water Act regulatory framework for addressing sewage and industrial wastes is not well suited to the more difficult problem of stormwater discharges. This book calls for an entirely new permitting structure that would put authority and accountability for stormwater discharges at the municipal level. A number of additional actions, such as conserving natural areas, reducing hard surface cover (e.g., roads and parking lots), and retrofitting urban areas with features that hold and treat stormwater, are recommended.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKStormwater runoff from urban areas is one of the major contributors to the impairment of the nation's waters. It mobilizes and transports a variety of pollutants into surface waters. In addition to degrading water quality, urban runoff also has geomorphic and hydrologic impacts on streams and is linked to declines in the health of aquatic communities. Low impact development (LID) is a land development approach that has been shown to be effective in minimizing these impacts by maintaining pre-development hydrology and water quality. Stormwater design criteria and techniques based on LID are increasingly recommended in federal and state guidance and have become required in some areas of the country. Local development codes can act as barriers to LID, such as codes that result in excess impervious cover or don't authorize and provide standards for LID practices. LID is on the rise but not yet mandated or in widespread use in Springfield, Missouri. The City of Springfield is under federal and state MS4 permit mandates to address the water quality impacts of urban runoff, including a proposed requirement to address LID code barriers. This thesis provides a review of Springfield's codes to identify LID barriers. Recommended code changes include narrower residential street widths, parking code changes, and authorizing the dual use of required landscape areas for stormwater management. These recommendations are intended to assist the City in making locally-appropriate code changes to remove LID barriers and support its more widespread use for water quality protection and improvement.

Managing Urban Stormwater Systems Managing stormwater flow is a particular challenge in urban environments. Urban Stormwater Management Tools details the design of basins and detection systems, covers subsurface and wetland issues, and presents a complete methodology for regulating sewer overflow. It includes methods for: * Hydrologically and hydraulically analyzing storm water systems * Designing storm water inlets, storm sewers, detention systems and infiltration basins * Learning about design methods ranging from the rational method to advanced simulation and optimization methods for sewer systems * Integrating operations and management considerations into designs * Performing risk/reliability analysis of stormwater systems
