Stormwater Calculations Stormwater Management Objectives The objective of BMPs is to minimize the adverse effects of development by mimicking, as closely as possible, the runoff characteristics of the site in its undeveloped state. These characteristics include: Moderation of runoff peak flows and volumes to minimize downstream erosion and damage to in-stream aquatic habitat. Removal of pollutants such as sediment, nutrients, pathological bacteria and heavy metals. infiltration of rainfall to replenish the water table and provide stable base flow to streams.
