Issue papers

Information: This series of Issue Papers were prepared by the consultant team for Manual Sub-Committee issue identification and discussion purposes only. Neither the Manual Sub-Committee nor the Minnesota Stormwater Steering Committee approved the material within these Issue Papers. The papers are provided here as background material to help describe the process that the Manual Sub-Committee followed in developing Manual content. Any reference to recommendations reflects the consultant team recommendations, as guided by the Manual Sub-Committee, but does not imply either Sub-Committee or Steering Committee approval.
