BUSINESS OWNERS - Post-Construction Runoff Control

Control of runoff from new and re-development projects, of significant size, post-construction. Although post-construction control has been addressed in the past, Phase II regulations modify traditional runoff control by integrating quantity and quality stormwater treatment practices. Businesses can consider utilizing Low-Impact Development (LID) or other modern practices to manage runoff. Existing businesses can “retro-fit” by installing Rain Gardens and Rain Barrels to help reduce runoff from their lot.
