This report outlines the reasons why stormwater management is different in the coastal areas and provides specific examples, data, and solutions for future management. Coastal management has typically relied on stormwater ponds for pollutant removal and runoff reduction but are now heading toward low impact development or other types of practices. Typical BMPs are presented and details for design principles, considerations, pollutant removal, and practical use are provided.
