Controlling Storm Water Run-Off
Controlling storm water run-off should begin with prevention. Whenever a contruction site disturbs the natural habitat, ground cover or canopy cover, it will disturb the storm water run-off. The plan should be to have effective excavation techniques that will have the least impact, and the greatest results. This is possibly more time consuming initially in the project, but in the long run compliance issues can be avoided with some creative solutions.
