Non-Structural Stormwater Quality Best Management Practices - An Overview of their Use, Value, Cost and Evaluation by Andre Taylor and Tony Wong
In 2001 the Cooperative Research Centre for Catchment Hydrology formed a partnership with the Victorian Environment Protection Authority to undertake research into the use, value, cost and evaluation of non-structural best management practices to improve urban stormwater quality (non-structural BMPs). Such BMPs include town planning controls, strategic planning and institutional controls, pollution prevention procedures, education and participation programs, and regulatory controls.
The primary aim of this research project was to produce monitoring protocols that could be used by local government authorities to measure the value and life-cycle cost of non-structural BMPs that improve urban stormwater quality.
Four reports have been produced to communicate this work to stakeholders. CRC for Catchment Hydrology Report 02/11 (No. 1 in the series) is this overview report that describes the project's aims, background, methodology, and presents key findings in a condensed form.
The report is available for downloading below. Printed copies of the report cost $27.50 and can be ordered through the Centre Office by contacting Virginia Verrelli on (03) 9905 2704 or email crcch@eng.monash.edu.au
