Reducing discharged phosphorus[edit]
In many forms of LID practice, the dominant mechanism reducing the loading of phosphorus, is the significant volume reduction achieved.
See:
- Bioretention:_Performance
- Others....
For infiltration practices an 'amendment' can help to retain even further P. Amendments
Phosphorous testing[edit]
To help ensure LID BMPs sustain healthy vegetation cover while not contributing substantially to nutrient loading of receiving waters, the quantity of extractable (i.e., available) P in the soil component needs to be measured and compared to design specifications or acceptance criteria.
