LID site design strategies can be grouped into four themes:  

LID site design strategies can be grouped into four themes:  

#Preserving important [[hydrologic features and functions]];  

#Preserving [[existing hydrologic features and functions]];  

#[[Siting and layout of development]];  

#[[Siting and layout of development]];  

#[[Reducing impervious area]]; and  

#[[Reducing impervious area]]; and  

#[[Using natural drainage systems.  

#[[Using natural drainage systems]].  

The strategies need to be considered together as they all overlap and relate to each other. For example, preserving a natural channel will impact the layout of the site, and the layout of the site determines the extent of impervious area and optimal locations of structural BMPs.
