• 10 basic contemporary <strong>SWM</strong> principles:<br />
• 1. Managing stormwater as a resource;<br />
• 2. Preserving <strong>and</strong> utilizing existing natural<br />
features <strong>and</strong> systems;<br />
• 3. Managing stormwater as close to the source<br />
as possible;<br />
• 4. Sustaining the hydrologic balance of surface<br />
<strong>and</strong> ground water;<br />
• 5. Disconnecting, decentralizing <strong>and</strong><br />
distributing sources <strong>and</strong> discharges;<br />
• 6. Slowing runoff down, <strong>and</strong> not speeding it<br />
up;<br />
• 7. Preventing potential water quality <strong>and</strong><br />
quantity problems;<br />
• 8. Minimizing problems that cannot be<br />
avoided;<br />
• 9. Integrating stormwater management into<br />
the initial site design process<br />
• 10. Inspecting <strong>and</strong> maintaining all BMPs.<br />
