System Mapping

Stormwater system mapping services are a vital component of Phase II MS4 stormwater management projects, as well as municipal flood prevention and resiliency planning programs.

Environmental Partners (EP) believes stormwater system mapping is an integral part of stormwater management and stresses the importance of evaluating drainage systems through a phased approach, relying first upon establishing project objectives and constraints. Often conducting field-inspections to determine existing conditions of drainage system infrastructure, EP also takes special consideration of the local watershed and creates stormwater models to quantitatively analyze existing conditions and alternative storm drain improvements. EP conducts comparative analyses to recommend a solution that considers variables including capital costs, operation and maintenance costs, integration with additional public works projects, site-specific construction challenges, neighborhood benefits and impacts, and the need for public outreach.
