| Abstract | This document provides guidance for selecting and using storm-water runoff monitoring equipment for monitoring of highway runoff. The guidance provided is intended to help achieve storm-water monitoring program goals through the collection of more useful and representative rainfall, flow, and water quality information. Ultimately it is intended to improve monitoring information that will lead to better highway runoff management decision making. Guidance is provided to assist the user in not only selecting equipment, but also approaching highway storm-water runoff monitoring design in a comprehensive manner. Included are recommendations for specific equipment and monitoring methods and their use in conjunction with meeting monitoring program goals. Results of field evaluations of equipment are included, as appropriate, from work conducted under Evaluation of Water Quality Monitoring Equipment for Measurements of the Constituents of Highway Storm-water Runoff. Example health and safety plans and a standard operating procedures document for conducting runoff monitoring are included for reference by users of the manual. |
