Constructed ponds and stormwater wetlands refers to any constructed basin that is built for the purpose of capturing and storing stormwater runoff, either temporarily or for an extended period of time, in order to prevent or mitigate downstream water quantity or quality impacts. Several distinct structure types ( wet pond, dry ponds, constructed wetlands, etc.) are included in this general category, and they are discussed in more detail on the pages called Types of stormwater ponds and Types of stormwater wetlands.

This page (Category) includes links to tables that provide information on constructed ponds and constructed wetlands.
