Abstract

Stormwater and watershed managers are challenged with developing the most cost-effective watershed management plans to reduce specific pollutants to receiving waters in a world of uncertainty about BMP effectiveness and compliance with complex regulations. Framework 1.0 links BMP performance for specific pollutants and flow to receiving water loadings, impacts and water quality objectives to improve selection and design of BMP systems and to develop effective watershed management plans. Framework 1.0 provides an integrated modeling platform to connect all data, models, and analysis tools for solving watershed management challenges. It is an advanced toolbox that can be used for detailed planning and conceptual design of BMP systems and watershed management plans. Published by WERF. 30-page Online User’s Manual and Framework Tool. (2014)
