Schueler, T., Stack, B. 2013. Recommendations of the Expert Panel to Define Removal Rates for Individual Stream Restoration Projects. Chesapeake Stormwater Network and Center for Watershed Protection, Ellicott City, MD. Pages 1-131 pollutant, restoration, stream, urban US EPA Chesapeake Bay Expert Panel report recommendations for stream restoration projects in reducing the delivery of sediments and nutrients to the Bay.
- Prevent channel or bank erosion that would otherwise result in sediment being delivered downstream – prevented sediment approach,
- Include design features that promote denitrification during base flow – in-stream denitrification approach and/or,
- Reconnect stream channels to their floodplains for a wide range of storm events – floodplain reconnection
On Monday, May 13, 2013 the final recommendations were accepted by the Water Quality Goal Implementation Team – the final step in the review process of urban BMPs. Since that date, three revisions have been approved by the Water Quality Goal Implementation Team (WQGIT) after test-driven results.
