| A
Best Management Practice is defined by the
EPA as a Technique,
measure or structural control that is used
for a given set of conditions
to manage the quantity and improve the quality
of the stormwater runoff in a cost effective
manner.
The Orange County Stormwater Program offers
a number of BMP fact sheets associated
with the various program elements of the
2003 Drainage Area Management Plan (DAMP)
designed to help businesses, contractors,
residents, etc., prevent and control the
contribution of pollutants to the stormdrain
system and eventually receiving waters
such as the ocean. While a great place
to start, the fact sheets offered below
do not represent a complete list of BMP
information. For more available resources
on BMPs, please visit the Resources
Links page of this website.
