• Abstract:
  Local communities and the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) are required by the Ohio ; Environmental Protection Agency’s (Ohio EPA) statewide Construction General Permit for Storm ; Water Discharges OHC000004 (CGP) to select, design, construct, operate and maintain post-construction storm water best management practices (BMPs) for new and redevelopment ; roadway projects statewide. Through the research conducted, a BMP selection tool, BMP case ; studies, and an annotated bibliography were developed to assist Locals with identification and ; BMP selection. The BMP tool is intended to facilitate the understanding of BMP requirements and ; considerations so Locals and designers can select, plan, and construct appropriate post-construction storm water BMPs. These research products will help Locals improve ; implementation of appropriate BMPs by providing resources to understand BMP characteristics ; with regard to limited space requirements, on-going maintenance, aesthetics, safety ; considerations, and other potential impacts associated with project delivery.
