Typical Urban Stormwater Impacts
3
• Water Quality: Nutrient and insecticide runoff, fecal coliform bacteria, leading to impaired waters and beach closures
• Hydrologic, Geomorphic, and Biological: Flooding, stream bank erosion, impaired aquatic habitat, and sewer overflows
• Flooding: Transportation infrastructure and private property damages

Storm Water Management Model (SWMM)
• Calculator is based on SWMM: Dynamic rainfall-runoff simulation model for long-term simulation of runoff quantity
• SWMM produces stormwater runoff estimates in the background of the Stormwater Calculator

Interpreting the Results
• Informing next steps for finalizing costs of stormwater projects and construction plans/designs
• Comparing the relative magnitude of planning level costs for different stormwater management solutions
• Comparisons may be made between national and regional cost estimates:
Using local knowledge in selection of regional BLS cost multipliers • Other nearby cities: Atlanta, Houston, etc.
