Stormwater Management
Abstract: A tool created to assist developers, engineers,
municipal officials, conservation district
personnel and others involved with the planning, design, review
and approval or building development projects. Thirty-seven
practices are described in the handbook including smaller,
less obtrusive practices that can be used alone or in combination
with larger conventional structural practices. While the handbook
is not intended to be a comprehensive site planning and practice
design manual, it can be used to develop site plans that meet
the Pennsylvania requirements for erosion and sediment control
and address local storm water control regulations.

A Stormwater Design Manual Toolbox
The Manual Builder provides a toolbox for developing a stormwater
treatment practice (STP) design manual. It includes STP design
and construction criteria and provides schematics and graphics
for each practice. It also provides information about maintenance
requirements and the typical local review process for STP
design and construction. Each manual needs to be customized
to meet the needs of the community where it is being applied.
