Abstract/Contents: | Discusses stormwater management, highlighting the potential consequences of erosion, runoff, and overtopping. Recommends incorporating stormwater strategies into a best management practices plan, using buffer strips, and diverting water away from local creeks and streams. Warns that "although it may not be important to you, the quality of stormwater is important to state regulators and various environmental advocacy groups." States that "if your construction project exceeds 1 [one] acre, you need to develop a SWPPP [Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan] and gain approval from the State Water Resources Control Board [in northern California]." Indicates that research results on water quality near golf courses "suggest that impacts to surfacewater quality from golf courses, including nutrient input were, for the most part, not occurring." |
