From the Urban Water Resources Research Council of the American Society of Civil Engineers (under a cooperative agreement with the US Environmental Protection Agency) comes the National Stormwater Best Management Practices Database. Information provided comes from over 190 Best Management Practice (BMP) studies conducted over the past fifteen years and, once accessed, can be viewed, printed, or exported as needed. Searches can be done using five parameters including state or country, type of BMP, water-quality issue, watershed size, and average storm volume. Although several of the attempted searches resulted in a brief overview of the entry and a statement of "BMP Summary Unavailable," the continually expanding database does give those interested a good resource for locating stormwater management practice information.
