What are the criteria for post-construction storm water BMPs as they relate to linear construction projects?
Post-construction BMPs address water quality concerns which occur after project completion due to the activity or structure put in place. For construction activity which does not result in a structure or major alteration of the topography, the appropriate post-construction BMP would be stabilization of the disturbed area. For construction resulting in the installation of structures, impervious surfaces, or soil compaction, the appropriate post-construction BMPs may include detention, velocity dissipation, off-site channel enlargement, check dams, or other applications which reduce net loading of sediment or polluted runoff to water bodies.
