<h3 Class="title-black"><strong><center>Welcome to the Low Impact Development Stormwater Management Practice Planning and Design Guide</center></strong></h3>
<div class="col-md-6">
<p>The Low Impact Development Stormwater Management Planning and Design Guide
(LID SWM Guide) has been developed by Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) and
Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) as a tool to help developers,
consultants, municipalities and landowners understand and implement more sustainable
stormwater management planning and design practices in their watersheds. Many
jurisdictions have defined the term low impact development. For this document, the
following definition, adapted from the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(U.S. EPA, 2007) will be used:


{{TextBox|1=Low impact development (LID) is a stormwater management strategy that seeks to mitigate the impacts of increased runoff and stormwater pollution by managing runoff as close to its source as possible. LID comprises a set of site design strategies that minimize runoff and distributed, small scale structural practices that mimic natural or predevelopment hydrology through the processes of infiltration, evapotranspiration, harvesting, filtration and detention of stormwater. These practices can effectively remove nutrients, pathogens and metals from runoff, and they reduce the volume and intensity of stormwater flows.}}</p>
