Each project must evaluate project design considerations and perform a site assessment as outlined in Volume I, Chapter 2. The goal of the site assessment and planning step is to identify any issues that must be addressed in association with stormwater management requirements. This step must be completed before selecting On-site Stormwater Management, Flow Control, and/or Runoff Treatment BMPs.
Project proponents need to evaluate all applicable code requirements and conduct a full site assessment to characterize site opportunities and constraints before choosing and designing stormwater strategies (refer to Volume I, Chapter 2). Once the site conditions are known and the applicable minimum requirements have been identified, proceed to Volume II, Chapter 3; Volume II, Chapter 4; and Volume II, Chapter 5 to begin the BMP selection and design process.
