All aspects of municipal storm water management - from planning and institutional concerns to technical design considerations - are covered in this book. Topics in planning and institutional concerns focus on programs dealing with public awareness, ordinances and regulations, financing, master planning, and water quality management. Technical design topics range from the practical aspects of hydrologic procedures to the design of culverts and storm drainage systems. Water quality aspects of best management practices are well documented. This stand-alone document provides essential information for the design and analysis of most storm water management facilities. The material and depth of coverage make this book a perfect text for academic as well as professional use.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Almost a one stop source,
By A Customer
This review is from: Municipal Stormwater Management (Hardcover)
The book serves as the principal reference on my shelf. It is a great source for people who need straight forward hydrology, open channel hydraulics, and pipe systems design support in one text. It lacks a bit with respect to modern storm water management detension ponds but the new editions should solve that problem. I added tabs to each main section and use it frequently. A good book for the civil/site professional dealing with storm water managment.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Great! Informative!,

This review is from: Municipal Stormwater Management, Second Edition (Hardcover)
Insightful and informative for municipalities! Helpful in many aspects of stormwater management. Also helpful with LID and other criteria related to stormwater design.

Storm Water Professional's Resource,
By B.O.R. - Bill of Rights "Tell It Like It Is" (California) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Municipal Stormwater Management, Second Edition (Hardcover)
This book is a good resource for a storm water professional. The book seems to be more of a compilation of other peoples' work than new work itself. The benefit of the book is that it pulls a lot of information together and organizes it into a usable format. The book is a great resource for the non-engineer storm water professional, though the book itself will not make a non-engineer an engineer. Perhaps an improvement to the book would be to emphasize the need for the input of a qualified engineer for the analysis and design of most storm water treatment BMPs.
