List of BMPs and associated pollutant removal mechanisms. Primary removal (solid circles) means the BMP was designed for this specific mechanism. Secondary removal (half circles) means the BMP provides additional removal of pollutants for this mechanism even though the BMP was not designed for that purpose. An empty cell means the BMP provides limited or no removal for that mechanism.

Screening/filtration Infiltration/recharge Settling Biological uptake Temperature control Soil adsorption Volume control Rate control Velocity control ETa
Pollution prevention
Not applicable - pollutants not exposed to stormwater
Better Site Design/low impact development
Runoff volume minimization
Temporary construction sediment control
Bioretention

Infiltration
Stormwater ponds
Stormwater wetlands
Supplemental treatment
Each supplemental and proprietary device should be carefully studied to learn the primary and secondary removal functions
