Atlanta Region Commission Design Manual

Stormwater management has entered a new phase in the State of Georgia.  The requirements for NDPES municipal and industrial permits, TMDLs, watershed assessments, and the desire to protect human life, property, aquatic habitats, and the quality of life in our communities has brought home the pressing need to manage both stormwater quantity and quality from our developed and developing areas.

The design manual is a culmination of a collaborative effort between the Atlanta Regional Commission, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources Environmental Protection Division, and thirty five cities and counties from across Georgia.  These documents reflect the hard work, time and contributions of many individuals.

The cities and counties involved in this project who helped sponsor this effort, include:

Cherokee County Clayton County Cobb County DeKalb County Douglas County Fayette County Fulton County Gwinnett County Henry County Rockdale County Douglasville/Douglas County Water and     Sewerage Authority Athens-Clarke County Augusta-Richmond County Columbus-Muscogee County City of Acworth City of Albany City of Alpharetta City of Atlanta

City of Austell City of College Park City of Douglasville City of East Point City of Fairburn City of Griffin City of Hapeville City of Kennesaw City of Lithia Springs City of Marietta City of Palmetto City of Peachtree City City of Powder Springs City of Rome City of Roswell City of Smyrna City of Snellville City of Union City
