dc.description.abstract | planning methodology which utilizes an optimization routine as its primary decision making tool. A thorough literature review presents the historical and current trends in the general area of stormwater quality. A detailed explanation and analysis is also provided on a current linear programming optimization model-Parameters, such as relationships between costs to implement stormwater management practices and their associated pollutant removal efficiencies, needed in the utilization of the model are developed for use in a general application. The systematic planning routine is then outlined, and a case study is performed to illustrate the methodology. Through this research, the planning methodology is proven to be beneficial in determining the best combination of management practices to use in the reduction of pollution caused from urban stormwater runoff. | en |
