Prepared byØtheØTask Committee of the Urban Water Resources Research Council of ASCE. Copublished by ASCE and the Water Environment Federation. Design and Construction of Urban Stormwater Management Systems presents a comprehensive examination of the issues involved in engineering urban stormwater systems. This Manual?which updates relevant portions of Design and Construction of Sanitary and Storm Sewers, MOP 37?reflects the many changes taking place in the field, such as the use of microcomputers and the need to control the quality of runoff as well as the quantity. Chapters are prepared by authors with experience and expertise in the particular subject area. The Manual aids the practicing engineer by presenting a brief summary of currently accepted procedures relating to the following areas: financial services; regulations;Ø surveys and investigations;Ø design concepts and master planning;Ø hydrology and water quality;Ø storm drainage hydraulics; andØ computer modeling.

Measurement, analysis and modeling of extreme precipitation events linked to floods is vital in understanding changing climate impacts and variability. This book provides methods for assessment of the trends in these events and their impacts. It also provides a basis to develop procedures and guidelines for climate-adaptive hydrologic engineering. Academic researchers in the fields of hydrology, climate change, meteorology, environmental policy and risk assessment, and professionals and policy-makers working in hazard mitigation, water resources engineering and climate adaptation will find this an invaluable resource. This volume is the first in a collection of four books on flood disaster management theory and practice within the context of anthropogenic climate change. The others are: Floods in a Changing Climate: Hydrological Modeling by P. P. Mujumdar and D. Nagesh Kumar, Floods in a Changing Climate: Inundation Modeling by Giuliano Di Baldassarre and Floods in a Changing Climate: Risk Management by Slodoban Simonović.

Stormwater Management for Land Development is a unique book on hydrologic and hydraulic methods for developing stormwater management plans that only requires readers to understand algebra, trigonometry, and geometry. Beginning with the fundamentals, it walks readers through the ABCs of fluid mechanics and hydrology and presents practical methods and designs to control stormwater runoff. Useful to surveyors, engineers, and land development planners who may not have taken fluid mechanics or hydrology courses, this book features: * Sections on elementary fluid mechanics including statics, dynamics, and open channel flow * Sections on practical stormwater hydrology including design rainfall, travel time, and runoff methods * Material on the NRCS/SCS dimensionless unit hydrograph, tabular hydrograph, and WinTR-55 hydrograph procedures. * Design methods for stormwater conveyance including storm sewer, culvert and open channel designs * A detailed procedure for designing a multiple-stage outlet structure for multiple event detention requirements * More than ninety example problems illustrating fluid flow and hydrology calculation methods * More than 170 review problems at the end the chapters With more than 150 helpful illustrations, STORMWATER MANAGEMENT FOR LAND DEVELOPMENT is a comprehensive yet basic guide to hydraulics, hydrology, and methods for the analysis and design related to quantity control of stormwater runoff. Thomas A. Seybert, PhD, PE, is Professor Emeritus of Engineering in the Surveying Engineering program at The Pennsylvania State University, Wilkes-Barre Campus. He has over thirty years of experience in teaching engineering students at the college level and also professional land surveyors, engineers and land development planners through continuing education courses at Penn State. He has also taught stormwater workshops for the Pennsylvania Society of Land Surveyors for over twenty five years.

The rapid conversion of land to urban and suburban areas has profoundly altered how water flows during and following storm events, putting higher volumes of water and more pollutants into the nation's rivers, lakes, and estuaries. These changes have degraded water quality and habitat in virtually every urban stream system. The Clean Water Act regulatory framework for addressing sewage and industrial wastes is not well suited to the more difficult problem of stormwater discharges. This book calls for an entirely new permitting structure that would put authority and accountability for stormwater discharges at the municipal level. A number of additional actions, such as conserving natural areas, reducing hard surface cover (e.g., roads and parking lots), and retrofitting urban areas with features that hold and treat stormwater, are recommended.
