DESIGN AND MAINTENANCE OF STORMWATER INFILTRATIONPRACTICESInfiltration of stormwater has become an important topic in themanagement of urban runoff. Many communities now requireinfiltration of stormwater to help reduce pollutant discharges and recharge local groundwater systems. Under WisconsinAdministrative Code NR 151.12 a percent of stormwater runoffmust be infiltrated on new development and redevelopment. Priorto infiltration, pretreatment is required for parking lot runoff andfor runoff from new road construction in commercial, industrialand institutional areas. Discover the planning, design, constructionand maintenance of complex infiltration systems.

• Why is infiltration of urban stormwater important to water quality?• Science of soils and infiltration • Site investigations• Pretreatment of stormwater runoff• Infiltration basins• Infiltration trenches and injection wells• Vegetation to use in infiltration systems• Monitoring and maintenance
