Site Planning and Design Techniques for Stormwater Management
This site is devoted to a paper from the 1998 National Planning Conference titled: "New Low Impact Design: Site Planning and Design Techniques for Stormwater Management." This paper is a brief overview of some major aspects of the Low Impact Design Manual developed by Prince George's County, Maryland's Department of Environmental Resources. It focuses on Low impact development (LID) and how to achieve stormwater management controls by fundamentally changing conventional site design to create an environmentally functional landscape that mimics natural watershed hydrologic functions (discharge, frequency, recharge and volume).
