Stormwater Academy, University of Central Florida

This report, prepared by Environmental Research and Design, Inc. (July 2007) evaluates the current design criteria of each of the WMDs and DEP to determine whether the minimum treatment level specified in 62-40, F.A.C. is being met. It provides updated information on rainfall patterns, land use specific event mean concentrations, and BMP effectiveness. It provides recommendations on a new performance standard of post-development nutrient loading shall not exceed pre-development nutrient loading and BMP design criteria that can acheive this level of treatment.
