Stormwater, Watershed, and Receiving Water Quality Modeling
This special publication presents state-of-the-art stormwater modeling and is a practical tool that presents a broad compilation of existing models, their capabilities, and a roadmap for users to assist in the selection of such models for diverse applications.
Green Infrastructure Implementation
This book provides actionable information promoting the implementation of green infrastructure. Unlike most publications, which focus on technical design of individual green elements, this peer-reviewed book tackles topics related directly to the ability to implement green infrastructure.
Wet Weather Design and Operation in Water Resource Recovery Facilities
This peer-reviewed publication provides water professionals with a comprehensive reference of current design and operational practices for managing the unique challenges associated with wet weather flows.
User-Fee-Funded Stormwater Programs
A must-read for agencies and public works departments interested in developing charge systems for stormwater programs based on fee structures.
Design of Urban Stormwater Controls (MOP 23)
Developed by WEF and ASCE, this Manual of Practice focuses on consolidating technologies under a comprehensive view of stormwater management in an attempt to foster a convergence between traditional stormwater controls and green infrastructure.
