“…The basin consists of 80 acres, of which 69 acres are offsite and 11 acres are on DFC property (table 2 and Additional basin and channel characteristics such as the area, centroid, channel length, channel slope, basin slope, total relief and elevation of the gaging site are given in table 3 (Alley and Veenhuis, 1979). Several studies of the offsite drainage have been published including one study of potential flood hazard by Grozier and others (1975); three hydro!ogic-data reports by Ellis and Alley (1978), Gibbs (1981), and Gibbs and Doerfer (1982); two hydro!ogic simulation reports by Ell is and Alley (1979) and Ell is and others (1983); and three drainage studies (Hydro-Triad, Ltd., 1973;1974;. The north tributary accounts for an additional 549 acres that drain to a series of retention storage ponds.…”

The period of 1967–1974, in Urban Hydrology, was called the period of “tool making” by McPherson (1980) and was followed by the 1975–1978 period of “tool wielding”. The four years of 1979–1982 are characterized primarily by a greater attention to the problems associated with the runoff quality, by the extension and improvement of computer models for a better simulation of pollutant washoff and pollutant effects on receiving streams, by a better understanding of the limitations of detention basins, by the recognition that detention can contribute to pollution abatement and finally by the acquisition of a very much needed and extensive data base on urban rainfall runoff quantity and quality and practices of urban runoff pollution control through the US EPA/USGS Nationwide Urban Runoff Program. One of the effects of this latter program is that the concept of watershed‐wide management for environmental protection was sharpened in terms of the control of flooding and of the quality of urban runoff and of the impacts on receiving streams. These last four years witnessed a maturing of urban hydrology which was manifest in the publication of a number of books on the subject. Kibler (1982b), Sheafer et al. (1982), Whipple et al. (1982), Novotny and Chester (1981), American Public Works Association (1981) and Lazaro (1979).
