KWRRI Research Reports
This report summarizes the work completed under the research project "Evaluation of Dentention Basins for Controlling Urban Runoff and Sedimentation." The main project accomplishments were:
(1) a demonstration of the desirability of considering systems of urban stormwater detention basins as opposed to individual basin design,
(2) the development of a systems analysis approach for least cost selection of a system of dentention basins for meeting a preset hydrologic objective,
(3) the development of a mathematical, computer-based simulation model of the performance of sediment retention basins,
(4) partial verification of the sediment basin model and
(5) the development of design recommendations …
