A
program of controls and measures designed to regulate the quantity
and quality of storm water runoff from a development while promoting
the protection and conservation of ground waters and groundwater
recharge.
SWM engineering practices are incorporated into the design of a
development in order to alleviate or decrease adverse water quantity
and water quality impacts that are a factor of development. Stormwater
management systems are designed to slow down or retain runoff to
re-create, as closely as possible, pre-development flow conditions.
Engineering analyses and design encompass:
 |
pre-development discritization; |
|
computer modeling; |
|
back water analysis; |
|
water balance analysis; |
|
Detention pond design; and |
|
Water quality analysis and best management practices in accordance
with Municipal and provincial regulators. |
