Over the next 12 – 18 months, a team made of people representing federal, state, regional, and local governments as well as non-profits, universities, and industry groups will work to revise the Blue Book. These revisions are expected to take newer approaches to stormwater, such as green infrastructure, and blend them with current approaches to give local governments and other users a useful management tool. These revisions will also address key regulatory requirements such as MS4 Stormwater permits as well as cost, benefits, and long-term costs of stormwater practices.
An RFP for a consultant to the project is expected to be issued in the next week and the Council will publish this for members when it is available.
