Background Contra Costa Approach Stormwater treatment and flow control Stormwater treatment and flow control Minimize directly connected impervious areas Minimize directly connected impervious areas Avoid standing water / vector issues Avoid standing water / vector issues
3
Background San Diego HMP and Model SUSMP Update Sacramento HMP
4
Background Watershed and Stream Scale Site scale Reduce peak flows Detain runoff on site Increase time of concentration Slow runoff from leaving site No runoff from small storms Infiltrate and evapotranspirate Reduce duration of moderate flows Let runoff seep away very slowly Reduce runoff volume Infiltrate where possible Reduce runoff energy Detain and slow flows Increase groundwater storage and stream base flows Facilitate infiltration Reduce pollutants in runoff Detain and filter runoff Protect against spills and dumping Disconnect drainage and filter runoff
