The presentation included an overview of the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection’s Best Management Practice (BMP) methodologies with an emphasis on local regulatory and site design initiatives that encourage the use of BMPs in local municipalities. The presentation finished with a review of various BMP-driven company projects that illustrated ways in which stormwater management was integrated into the site design process.
