This manual, a revision of the Water Environment Federation’s (WEF’s) and the American Society of Civil Engineer’s (ASCE’s) manual of practice (MOP) titled Urban Runoff Quality Management (1998), takes a holistic view and espouses the concept that systems of stormwater controls can be designed to meet the various objectives of stormwater management, including flood control; stream channel protection; groundwater recharge; water quality improvement; protection of public safety, health, and welfare; and multipurpose public benefits such as provision of open space, parks, playgrounds, trails, wildlife habitat, and enhancement of property values. This MOP focuses on consolidating technologies under a comprehensive view of stormwater management in an attempt to foster a convergence between traditional stormwater controls and green infrastructure. Developed by WEF and ASCE.

Read an excerpt from a book review in the April 2013 issue of Water Environment & Technology by Lawrence K. Wang and Mu-Hao S. Wang, professors and consultants at the Lenox Institute of Technology:
"This authoritative resource explains how stormwater control systems can be designed to meet multidisciplinary objectives, including flood control, stream channel protection, groundwater recharge, water quality protection, public safety protection, human health and welfare, and multipurpose public benefits, such as provision of open space, parks, playgrounds, trails, wildlife habitat, and enhancement of property values. It is well-balanced in writing style, chapter length, and engineering discussions. This MOP focuses on consolidating technologies under a comprehensive view of stormwater management in an attempt to foster a convergence between traditional stormwater controls and innovative green infrastructure. [...] This fine reference book is geared toward urban stormwater managers; design engineers; urban planners; university professors; stormwater treatment equipment manufacturers; and local, state, and federal government employees involved in urban stormwater controls."
