Modeling Your Way Through EISA

Abstract

Energy Independence and Security Act. Storm water runoff requirements for federal development projects. The sponsor of any development or redevelopment project involving a Federal facility with a footprint that exceeds 5,000 square feet shall use site planning, design, construction, and maintenance strategies for the property to maintain or restore, to the maximum extent technically feasible, the predevelopment hydrology of the property with regard to the temperature, rate, volume, and duration of flow. Summary: Implementation of Section 438 of the EISA can be achieved by incorporation of GI/LID EPA 841-B-09-001 provides technical guidance on implementing the stormwater runoff requirements. Several models are available to support stormwater modeling analysis efforts. Defensible and consistent hydrologic assessment tools should be used and documented.
