This reference guide was developed by the Chesapeake Bay Program (CBP) with support from Virginia Tech. This guide contains summaries for every CBP-approved BMP. Each BMP has its own reference sheet that defines the practice, explains how it functions within CBP’s Watershed Model, explains the reporting procedures for annual progress submissions, and provides resources for additional information.
