TRB conducted a webinar on October 9, 2014, from 2:00pm to 3:30pm ET that provided information and demonstrated tools for the selection and maintenance of highway-related stormwater best management practices (BMP) based on long-term performance and life-cycle costs. Webinar presenters identified tool applications that address various BMP types and provide capital, operation, and maintenance and life-cycle costs, as well as pollutant concentration and load reduction by BMP.
A certificate for 1.5 Professional Development Hours (PDHs) was provided to attendees who registered and attended the webinar as an individual. Contact Reggie Gillum at
RGillum@nas.edu for information on obtaining the webinar recording.
