| This
document is a revision of the Catalog of Stormwater BMPs for
Idaho Cities and Counties originally developed in 1998. Its
target audience is design professionals, such as landscape architects,
geologists, engineers, and soil scientists, and local public officials
and staff responsible for the review and approval of development
applications.
The revised catalog provides more than 100 ways to control erosion
and sediment during and after construction. It is comprised of the following five
volumes:
- Volume 1 includes a brief discussion of stormwater runoff
impacts, an overview of agencies responsible for stormwater permitting
and authority in Idaho, and a step-by-step procedure for site design.
- Volume 2 contains construction BMPs to control erosion and sediment.
- Volume 3 covers low-impact development and provides techniques
that can minimize changes to the hydrology of development sites.
- Volume 4 contains post-construction/permanent BMPs.
- Volume 5 provides source control BMPs for industrial, commercial,
and residential land use activities.
