Details for State of Minnesota Stormwater Manual

State of Minnesota Stormwater Manual. The Center worked with Minnesota-based Emmons & Olivier Resources, a large committee of state regulators, and other stakeholders to craft the Minnesota Stormwater Manual, the most comprehensive one in the Upper Midwest to date. This manual provides an updated discussion of cold climate issues as they influence design of stormwater practices, like the challenge of high snowfall, springtime snowmelt, and Minnesota's thousands of sensitive lakes, trout streams, and wetlands that merit special protection. The related issue papers, also from this site, introduced new stormwater concepts to the state, such as unified sizing criteria, special receiving water performance standards, and stormwater credits.
