3.1.A: Pre-Development Response to Storms

Encourage and support land use designs that maintain pre-development response to storm events with respect to infiltration and runoff volume, velocity, and quality

Other Information:

MILESTONE By 2007: Watershed-based stormwater management plans developed and adopted that maximize infiltration, while avoiding ground water mounding, and minimize site disturbance DESIRED OUTCOME Surface waters are less impacted from storm events • Floods, erosion and sedimentation are minimized • Stream base flows are maintained or restored with water quality improvements SUPPORTS GOAL 3.4, 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, 2.3
