Description:

Starting from the basics, Stormwater Management for Land Development builds a thorough understanding of fluid dynamics and hydrology before presenting the reader with practical methods and designs to control and divert stormwater. It ends with an innovative chapter covering water quality issues and how they can influence the site design.This is the first book written at this basic level, and is the first to be useful to the growing group of Professional Surveyors developing stormwater management plans.
