Webinar Description:
Developed over two decades of research and data collection, the Watershed Protection Standard (WPS) aims to reduce stormwater impacts by preserving pre-development hydrology to the extent practicable in development and redevelopment projects.
Implementing the WPS is feasible and practical when designers use site layouts and stormwater control management strategies backed by the latest science. Designed for municipal engineers and consultants working in New England, this webinar will share examples of site designs that meet the WPS and introduce a new calculator tool for quantifying credits for stormwater control systems using the latest modeling techniques.
