Price Endogeneity and Marginal Cost Effects on Incentive Compatible Stormwater Management Policies [PDF]
Incentive based stormwater management policies offer the prospect of reducing urban stormwater runoff while increasing developer profits. An incentive compatible Stormwater Banking Program (SBP) is presented that allows developers to build at higher ...

Stormwater Management System Drawdown
This project concerns the computations required to determine the drawdown for the retention/detention of ponds. Drawdown refers to the volume of water in a pond that decreases as the water flows out.

An indexing model for stormwater quality assessment : stormwater management in the Gold Coast [PDF]
In the age of climate change and rapid urbanisation, stormwater management and water sensitive urban design have become important issues for urban policy makers.\ud This paper reports the initial findings of a research study that develops an indexing ...

Water Age in Stormwater Management Ponds and Stormwater Management Pond Treated Catchments [PDF]
Increasing coverage of impervious surfaces in urban waterways result in 'flashy' hydrologic responses, elevated flood risk, and degraded water quality. Stormwater management ponds (SWMPs) are engineered into urban stream networks to mitigate this response. However, little is known about how SWMPs affect hydrological transit time at the catchment scale.

Evaluation of Catchment-Scale Stormwater Runoff Management on First-Flush Water Quality and Storm Discharge Quantity [PDF]
Urbanization and resulting imperviousness has caused increased pollutant loadings into receiving water bodies. One of the main sources of pollutant loads is stormwater runoff.

Conservation Subdivision: Construction Phase—Low Impact Development (LID) and Stormwater Treatment
Because so much area in subdivisions is covered by impervious surfaces such as roads, buildings, and driveways, stormwater runoff must be accounted for and treated to prevent flooding and to remove contaminates.
