Course Reviews (4.8/5):
Summary: This practical and highly acclaimed course provides a comprehensive overview of stormwater pollution chemistry and its applications to stormwater monitoring and BMP effectiveness. Topics include an overview of stormwater contaminant sources, characteristics, transport and fate, monitoring, treatment best management practices (BMPs), BMP selection and performance, BMP optimization, current research, and emerging treatment technologies. Surface water and groundwater protection are also covered.
