Welcome to the Low Impact Development Planning and Design Guide

Cras justo odio, dapibus ac facilisis in, egestas eget quam. Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Nullam id dolor id nibh ultricies vehicula ut id elit.

Installation

To remove the Mediawiki page title, we can do this very simply by adding the following to Mediawiki:Common.css, replacing Bootstrapskin_News with your page title.

Thats it, simply copy and paste the code at the bottom of the page to create a multi-purpose template that can be used to display wiki content professionally.

About the Low Impact Development Planning and Design Wiki Guide[edit]

About the Wiki Guide Format[edit]

Welcome to the Low Impact Development Stormwater Management Practice Planning and Design Guide website. This website was developed using Mediawiki, a wiki application that allows for easy editing and that has powerful search abilities. See Introduction to the wiki for more information.

Consult the User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.

About the Contents of this Guide[edit]

The Low Impact Development Stormwater Management Planning and Design Guide (LID SWM Guide) has been developed by Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) and Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) as a tool to help developers, consultants, municipalities and landowners understand and implement more sustainable stormwater management planning and design practices in their watersheds. Many jurisdictions have defined the term low impact development. For this document, the following definition, adapted from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA, 2007) will be used:

Low impact development (LID) is a stormwater management strategy that seeks to mitigate the impacts of increased runoff and stormwater pollution by managing runoff as close to its source as possible. LID comprises a set of site design strategies that minimize runoff and distributed, small scale structural practices that mimic natural or predevelopment hydrology through the processes of infiltration, evapotranspiration, harvesting, filtration and detention of stormwater. These practices can effectively remove nutrients, pathogens and metals from runoff, and they reduce the volume and intensity of stormwater flows.

The LID SWM Guide provides information and direction to assist engineers, ecologists and planners with landscape-based stormwater management planning and the selection, design, construction and monitoring of sustainable stormwater management practices. The focus of this guide is on guidance regarding the planning and design of structural low impact development practices for stormwater management.

The practice of managing stormwater is continuing to evolve as the science of watershed management and understanding of our watersheds grow. Effective management of stormwater is critical to the continued health of our streams, rivers, lakes, fisheries and terrestrial habitats. CVC and TRCA believe that an improved understanding of the municipal and environmental planning process and the requirements for stormwater management will lead to improvements in management practices and an increasingly standardized and streamlined approach to addressing stormwater throughout the CVC and TRCA watersheds.

The LID SWM Guide is intended to augment the Ontario Ministry of the Environment (OMOE) Stormwater Management Planning and Design Manual (2003). The OMOE manual provides design criteria for “conventional” end-of-pipe stormwater management practices such as wet ponds and constructed wetlands but provides only limited information about lot level and conveyance controls. The OMOE manual does, however, emphasize the use of a “treatment train” approach to reduce the impacts of stormwater runoff. A treatment train approach – a combination of lot level, conveyance, and end-ofpipe stormwater management practices – is usually required to meet the multiple objectives of stormwater management, which include maintaining the hydrologic cycle, protecting water quality, and preventing increased erosion and flooding.

This LID SWM Guide focuses on a number of lot level and conveyance stormwater management practices that have been used extensively in Europe, the United States, British Columbia and at demonstration sites in Ontario. These practices have only recently been considered for broad application in Ontario as part of the treatment train approach. These low impact development practices include green roofs, bioretention, permeable pavement, soakaways, perforated pipe systems, enhanced grass swales, dry swales and rainwater harvesting. The LID SWM Guide recommends and supports the use of the treatment train approach for stormwater management. Accordingly, the reader is urged to refer to the OMOE manual (OMOE, 2003), as a guide for incorporating more traditional practices such as wet ponds and wetlands into the overall stormwater management planning and design process.

The LID SWM Guide is not intended to limit innovation or restrict the use of creative solutions for stormwater management. Indeed, the OMOE, CVC, TRCA and partner municipalities encourage the development of innovative designs and technologies.

Related Documents[edit]

This manual is not a stand-alone document. It is intended to augment the Ontario Ministry of the Environment’s 2003 Stormwater Management Planning and Design Manual, which provides design criteria for “conventional” end-of-pipe stormwater management practices such as wet ponds and constructed wetlands. It is also a companion document to other stormwater related guidance documents prepared by CVC and TRCA. Amongst others, these include:

CVC

• Credit River Water Management Guidelines (CRWMG) (2007);

• Credit River Stormwater Management Criteria (currently under development; will be an appendix to the CRWMG;

• Geomorphic and Meander Belt Guidelines (an appendix to the CRWMG); • Floodline Mapping Guidelines (an appendix to the CRWMG);

• Environmental Impact Report Terms of Reference (an appendix to the CRWMG);

• Technical Guidelines for Floodproofing, 1994 (an appendix to the CRWMG);

• Hydrologic/Hydraulic Modeling (an appendix to the CRWMG Guidelines);

• Guidelines for Hydrogeologic Studies (an appendix to the CRWMG);

Headwater Assessment Guidelines (an appendix to the CRWMG).

TRCA

• Planning and Development Procedural Manual (2007);

• Stormwater Management Criteria (currently under development);

• Floodplain Management Guideline; and

• Stream Crossing Guidelines.
