Abstract

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Research and Development (ORD) Urban Watershed Management Branch (UWMB) has identified an approach for urban modeling research that includes two major objectives: to develop a standard operating procedure for the user community and to develop a BASINS-compatible Stormwater Management Model (SWMM) - Geographical Information System (GIS) interface. To achieve this, UWMB is currently involved with several stormwater modeling projects. This chapter provides the SWMM-user community with a description of the UWMB approach to urban watershed modeling research and provides an update on current ORD SWMM-related projects.
