This chapter introduces a method for evaluating stormwater quality inlets while supporting the rationale that rainfall intensity is the governing factor affecting runoff quality
The first-flush concept has been the most practiced, and most questioned, criterion used by engineers
Advocates ofusing the first flush concept as a design parameter have typically attempted to quantify it as the first0.5inch(13mm)orinch(25mm)orotherdepthofprecipitation
Summary
Consistent and Uniform Method for the Evaluation of Stormwater BMPs. Thomas R. Strong Jr. This chapter introduces a method for evaluating stormwater quality inlets while supporting the rationale that rainfall intensity is the governing factor affecting runoff quality. A system manufactured by Vortechnics is used as an example of a stormwater water quality inlet sized in accordance with rainfall intensity
