This stormwater manual contains information on pollutant removal for a limited number of pollutants. Links to this information are provided below. Users should be aware that the there is considerable information on pollutant removal in the literature and on-going research on the topic of pollutant removal by stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs). The information in this manual is therefore subject to change and often reflects ranges found in the literature rather than specific values. Pollutant removal is a function of many factors, including design, construction, and maintenance of the BMP, quality of incoming stormwater, time of year, and so on. We have included additional links to information on pollutant removal. Finally, the reader should be aware that each BMP discussed in this Manual has an article (webpage) on stormwater credits, and additional information on pollutant removal may be found in those credit sections.
