ENVEĀ 5305 [0.5 credit] Stormwater Management and Low Impact Development


The low impact development (LID) design approach is examined as a tool for sustainable urban planning and stormwater management. The course covers conventional (wet ponds), vegetated (green roofs, bioretention), infiltration (permeable pavements, exfiltration cells) and treatment (oil-grit separators) stormwater systems. Modelling approaches are introduced.
