Course Details
• Advanced Stormwater Modeling: This unit will cover the use of advanced stormwater models to simulate and analyze runoff, water quality, and erosion in complex watershed systems.
• Green Infrastructure Design: This unit will explore the design and implementation of green infrastructure practices, such as bioretention systems, permeable pavements, and green roofs, for stormwater management.
• Low Impact Development (LID): This unit will examine the principles and strategies of LID, which emphasizes the use of decentralized, small-scale, and passive stormwater management techniques.
• Stormwater Ordinances and Regulations: This unit will review the legal and regulatory framework for stormwater management, including federal, state, and local regulations, permits, and guidelines.
• Stormwater Quality Monitoring and Assessment: This unit will discuss the methods and techniques for monitoring and assessing stormwater quality, including the use of field sampling, laboratory analysis, and data interpretation.
• Stormwater Retrofits and BMPs: This unit will examine the opportunities and challenges of retrofitting existing urban areas with stormwater best management practices (BMPs) to improve water quality and reduce runoff.
• Stormwater System Operations and Maintenance: This unit will cover the proper operation and maintenance of stormwater systems, including the scheduling, budgeting, and prioritization of maintenance activities.
• Stormwater System Planning and Design: This unit will discuss the planning and design of stormwater systems, including the selection and sizing of BMPs, the integration of green infrastructure, and the use of low impact development principles.
• Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD): This unit will introduce the concept of WSUD, which seeks to integrate stormwater management, landscape architecture, and urban planning to create sustainable and resilient communities.
