Details for Tool 8: BMP Performance Verification Checklist

Tool 8: BMP Performance Verification Checklist. Tool 8 is a downloadable checklist that will help local program authorities provide a consistent set of questions for applicants proposing to use manufactured and proprietary BMPs. The goal of this tool is to provide more of a level playing field so that all applicants provide the same type of BMP performance information and data as a basis for approving particular devices. The tool does not promote or "pre-approve" any particular device, but is applicable for the review of all proprietary BMPs. The checklist is accompanied by an explanation and instructions for using the checklist, technical appendices that elucidate the complex world of BMP performance, and a matrix that compares existing BMP verification protocols, such as TARP, TAPE, and NJCAT.
