Model Ordinances
Jacques Cosuteau National Estuarine Research Reserve: Coastal Resource Repository--Model Ordinances
The Coastal Resource Repository provides Coastal Decisions Makers with a range of resources, including: scientific and technical
reports and books, model management plans, static maps, and dynamic maps using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) technology.
The JC NERR has compiled a number of model ordinances that may be used to guide development and protect sensitive natural
resources including Shoreline/Waterfront protection, Landscaping /Tree protection, Stormwater Management, Water Supply Protection,
Open Space, Environmental Impact.
The Stormwater Manager's Resource Center.
The Stormwater Manager's Resource Center is designed specifically for stormwater practitioners, local government officials
and others that need technical assistance on stormwater management issues. Created and maintained by the Center for Watershed
Protection, the SMRC has everything you need to know about stormwater in a single site.
U.S. EPA--Model Ordinances to Protect Local Resources
This web site includes model ordinances to serve as a template for those charged with making decisions concerning growth and
environmental protection. For each model ordinance listed, there are several real -life examples of ordinances used by local
and state governments around the nation. The ordinances address matters that are often forgotten in many local codes, including
aquatic buffers, erosion and sediment control, open space development, stormwater control operation and maintenance, illicit
discharges, and post construction controls.
Potential Providers
JCNERR Coastal Training Program--Barnegat Bay Estuary Program Stormwater Roundtables.
A series of workshops or roundtables will be conducted to assist local government and
code officials in meeting the requirements of the Phase II Municipal Stormwater Rules in
the Barnegat Bay watershed. The roundtables will be directed at local elected officials, planners, town engineers, environmental
commissioners and public works personnel in the BBEP regional watershed. These individuals will receive scientific and technical
information along with hands-on or field demonstrations on a variety of topics such as control of stormwater, improved performance
standards for runoff controls, and consistency among municipalities for improved stormwater management designs and maintenance
needs.
Rutgers Office of Continuing and Professional Education--Stormwater Management for Engineers.
This three-day course addresses all pertinent aspects of stormwater management, especially those for land development projects.
Course topics include existing vs. proposed site analysis, runoff computation, and hydrograph development, using both the
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) techniques and Modified Rational Methods. All relevant course topics have been
updated in accordance with the latest NJDEP stormwater management regulations, including the new requirements for reduced
post-development site outflows. The course will conclude with a workshop problem that applies the course information to an
actual stormwater facility design.
Rutgers Office of Continuing and Professional Education--Technical Training for Proposed Stormwater Management Rule & BMP
Manual.
New Jersey's proposed Stormwater Management Rules include fundamental changes in how we plan, design and implement systems
and structures for managing stormwater runoff in New Jersey. In addition to new guidance for regional and municipal stormwater
planning, the rules include new methods and calculations for calculating groundwater recharge, stormwater runoff and nutrient
removal. For both designers of land use proposals and the public officials who review them, implementing the rules will require
an understanding of both the municipal planning in the regulations as well as the technical standards required. This two-day
seminar will explain both as aspects of the rule.
Stormwater Program Institute (SPI).
The SPI, developed by the Center for Watershed Protection and supported by the US Environmental Protection Agency, has been
specifically designed to assist public and private sector managers who need to develop or improve their municipal stormwater
programs to effectively comply with the six minimum management measures of the NPDES Phase 2 stormwater permit program.
Internet Tools
International Stormwater Best Management Practices (BMP) Database
This database provides access to BMP performance data in a standardized format for roughly 200 BMP
studies conducted over the past fifteen years. The database may be searched and/or downloaded on this Web site,
and is also available on CD-ROM. Additional BMP studies are currently being prepared for the database.
The database was developed by the Urban Water Resources Research Council (UWRRC) of ASCE under a cooperative
agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Mississippi Department of Marine Resources--Stormwater Management Toolbox
The basic toolbox contains: Directories, Inventory of BMP's, local ordinances
(including matrix), model storm water ordinances, model erosion and control
ordinances, worksheet,
Resources for the 6 minimum requirements, Resources and guidance documents,
best non-point sources documents USEPA, guidance resources for
Storm water Phase II- case studies
New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection--Urbanized Area Map Results of New Jersey
Maps of all the cities in New Jersey which contain urbanized areas. For each urbanized area, two maps have been developed.
Overview--Provides a general outline of the urbanized area, including incorporated areas or areas of a county that are included within
the urbanized area.
Detailed Map with Roads--Adds street level details so that the exact boundaries of the urbanized area can be determined.
The Stony Brook Millstone Watershed Association--Guide for Municipal Stormwater Plans
Municipalities can help reduce flooding and erosion damage, reduce runoff pollution to streams, and improve water quality
locally and for neighboring communities, by developing and implementing a Stormwater Management Plan. This guide describes
how to develop a stormwater plan unique to your community. Developing this plan is only one of the State Basic Requirements
(SBRs) outlined in the stormwater rules proposed by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP).
The Stormwater Manager's Resource Center.
The Stormwater Manager's Resource Center is designed specifically for stormwater practitioners, local government officials
and others that need technical assistance on stormwater management issues. Created and maintained by the Center for Watershed
Protection, the SMRC has everything you need to know about stormwater in a single site.
U.S. EPA--Clean Water Act
The 1972 amendments to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (known as the Clean Water Act or CWA) provide the statutory
basis for the NPDES permit program and the basic structure for regulating the discharge of pollutants from point sources to
waters of the United States. Section 402 of the CWA specifically required EPA to develop and implement the NPDES program.
U.S. EPA--Stormwater Month Outreach Materials and Reference Documents
EPA has developed a set of materials that state or local governments can customize and use in their own stormwater outreach
campaigns. The electronic files on this page contain space for officials to add their own contact information and inexpensively
reproduce these materials. You'll find materials for the general public, homeowners, construction site operators, and children.
U.S. EPA--NPDES Permit Program
The site contains technical and regulatory information about the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit program.
The NPDES Permits Program consists of a number of programs and initiatives.
U.S. EPA--NPDES Stormwater Program
This page contains technical and regulatory information about the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System stormwater
program.
It is organized according to the three types of regulated stormwater discharges and provides a link to Stormwater Month outreach
materials: Construction activities, Industrial activities, Municipal separate storm sewer systems
U.S. EPA--Urban Stormwater Best Management Practices Study
EPA conducted a study of urban storm water discharges in 1997-98 to explore how the Effluent Guidelines program can contribute
to the Agency's efforts in implementing the national storm water program. The study is based largely on existing literature
and data on best management practices (BMPs) that are used to control urban storm water runoff. Topics covered include: BMP
performance measures and measurable goals, availability of measurement methods, design criteria, monitoring issues, costs
and cost minimization opportunities, and the benefits and economic impacts of constructing and operating BMPs.
