Watershed and stormwater managers need modeling tools to evaluate how best to address environmental quality restoration and protection needs in urban and developing areas.

Significant investments are needed to protect and restore water quality, address total maximum daily loads (TMDLs), and evaluate and design sustainable stormwater management systems.

A number of stormwater control strategies, commonly known as best management practices (BMPs) or low-impact developments (LIDs), are used to options help create more sustainable development that manages stormwater while minimizing downstream...
