We have been asked by the CaGBC to provide a management plan addressing how pollution and eutrophication of waterways would be minimized through operational changes.

Hello, on our project the runoff from roof area is directed to one concrete reservoir tank. Water is stored in rainwater cistern and reused for irrigation.

I heard a comment from a LEED user that GBCI reviewers do not understand the application of Best Management Practices in series.

If I understand correclty, we can use the table in the reference guide with several BMPs to determine the removal efficiency.

Hi! Where can we find accepted values for tss removal efficiency of a meadow or other tipes of vegetation?

I am working on a project which plans to use the Downstream Defender by Hydro International to achieve 80% TSS of stormwater. The literature with the product says it treats 50% of TSS.

I work on the project where it is impossible to design non-structural measures because soil can´t infiltrate almost any water.

hi there, here's what will probably be an easy question for you but is stumping me, as this is my first time documenting this credit.

We have site that is located about 600m from the sea, hence the stormwater will be discharged to the sea instead going to municipal infrastructure.

If we are increasing the total impervious area on the site, but treating the stormwater to reduce the TSS, do we still meet the intent of the credit?
