New Report on Urban Stormwater by the National Research Council

By: Scott Nania, StormCon Coordinator Comments
The National Research Council Water Sciences and Technology Board has released the report “Urban Stormwater Management in the United States.” The report is the product of a two-year study by national experts, commissioned by the EPA in 2006 to evaluate the NPDES stormwater program and make recommendations for improvement. The report describes the history of stormwater management in the US, gives an overview of federal stormwater regulations, and provides information on relevant scientific and technological issues such as hydrology, geomorphology, biology, monitoring, and modeling. It also provides significant findings and recommendations on how stormwater management in the US should be improved to achieve better environmental outcomes. This presentation summarizes the findings and discusses EPA activities to implement its recommendations

Connie Bosma of the EPA will conduct the presentation at StormCon on Tuesday,  August 18,  3:45 p.m. – 4:15 p.m.

Sign up today to hold your spot.
