PERMANENT STORMWATER
MANAGEMENT TRAINING  

The transition from native landscapes to a built environment has often resulted in increased pollutant loadings to receiving waters, erosion of stream channels, downstream flooding, and decreased infiltration and recharge of groundwater. The development community is moving toward a more sustainable approach to site layout and design that minimize these impacts through avoiding soil compaction, minimizing impervious footprints, and managing stormwater runoff using vegetation and healthy soils. Permanent Stormwater Management Training is available to design engineers and architects as well as plan reviewers and other local municipal program personnel. These courses provide insights on avoidance and minimization approaches to site layout, design guidance on specific permanent stormwater control measures, and experience using tools developed to assist designers and plan reviewers with implementation of runoff reduction and pollutant removal requirements.
