Abstract

This paper examines and compares the management practices and regulatory approaches used by the Mid-Atlantic States of Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania for improving the quality of storm-water runoff. Such practices range from simple extended detention criteria in Pennsylvania through the BMP credit system used by Maryland, to the latest "green technology" methods promoted in Delaware and the recharge, quality and peak reduction approaches of New Jersey. All practices are designed to meet EPA requirements for total suspended solids (TSS) removal, but verification of performance is not required. More sophisticated methods of evaluating TSS removal that can be used for engineering design purposes are needed.

摘要

本文研究并比较了特拉华州、马里兰州、新泽西州和宾夕法尼亚州这几个中大西洋州为提高雨水径流质量所采用的管理措施和监管方法。这些措施涵盖范围广泛，从宾夕法尼亚州简单的延长滞留标准，到马里兰州采用的最佳管理措施（BMP）积分系统，再到特拉华州推广的最新“绿色技术”方法以及新泽西州的回灌、水质和峰值削减方法。所有这些措施都是为了满足美国环境保护局（EPA）对去除总悬浮固体（TSS）的要求，但并不要求对性能进行验证。需要更复杂的用于评估TSS去除的方法，以便用于工程设计目的。
