Abstract
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Research and Development, Sustainable Environments Branch (EPA) is implementing a field research study of low impact development in a suburban watershed. Under contract to EPA, Tetra Tech has installed Best Management Practices (BMPs) on single-family residential lots across the 2 square-kilometer watershed in Cincinnati, Ohio. The project is studying public attitudes about these practices, the cost and feasibility of watershed-scale dispersed BMP programs, and effects on stream health and water quality.
