stormwater be pretreated through a grassy swale prior to
discharge to the subsurface to prevent impact to groundwater and
surface water quality. The engineers and architects should obtain
current best management practices for stormwater disposal and
design a stormwater management system that is preventing
groundwater and surface water degradation. Manuals for
