“…30 There are many types of SCMs, which fall on a continuum of design and offer a variety of hydrologic and water quality benefits at different scales, costs, and levels of environmental impact. 31 Historically, municipalities and developers implemented larger, regional SCMs like retention ponds, detention basins, and constructed wetlands downstream of . A majority of concentrations exceed the standards and criteria, highlighting how stormwater quality limits its value as a resource.…”

“…Biofilters are also often called bioretention basins or rain gardens; a discussion of regional nomenclature for green infrastructure is provided elsewhere. 31 Water infiltrates through to underlying soil or is directed via underdrains to stormwater conveyance systems. 7 Typically, a drawdown time of between 12 and 48 hours is required to minimize insect vector concerns.…”

“…This emphasis on environmental burden associated with some functional unit means that when LCA of mitigation infrastructure is not designed around a functional unit that appropriately communicates the infrastructure's environmental harm mitigation, results can be confusing. For example, LCA results for SCMs are commonly presented as impact per unit of catchment area [29]. Users of these results are likely to understand this framing to be a net impact, accounting for both the investment of environmental burden and return in the form of environmental harm reduction from the SCM, because the SCM explicitly exists to provide some environmental service.…”

“…Gray infrastructure signifies infrastructures that rely upon structures as distinct from GI, which incorporates natural systems. The differences between green and gray infrastructures have been emphasized in the literature, for example by Bell et al [15] (p. 3) in the context of stormwater control systems (SCMs) as follows: "Gray SCMs are larger structures made from conventional construction materials (e.g., concrete, steel, and plastic) that focus on storage and release, whereas green SCMs are typically smaller, consist of media and plants, and focus on reducing runoff and pollutant loads." GI can potentially support connectivity with gray infrastructure, and this connectivity can increase the reduction of negative water-related impacts of gray infrastructure, and potentially open up opportunities for additional funding.…”
