In stormwater management, Best Management Practice (BMP) monitoring plays a vital role in adapting to regulatory standards and evaluating system performance across diverse regions. This session explores the specific requirements of BMP monitoring under protocols such as Washington’s TAPE, North Carolina’s NEST, and Texas TCEQ, focusing on performance goals, site requirements, and event specifications. By comparing criteria like TSS removal targets, required analytes, and storm event thresholds, the session will offer insights into how monitoring programs shape BMP performance and compliance strategies. Through real-world examples, including collaborative projects with NC State University, this presentation provides best practices for structuring BMP monitoring to address contaminants such as TSS and nitrogen while aligning with local regulations. Attendees will gain an understanding of setting up BMP monitoring to achieve specific water quality goals and resilience in stormwater systems.
