Notes - general: This article deals with the growing need to treat
potential pollution from paved surface runoff, as well
as the need for flow attenuation and for water quality
monitoring. This has lead to the expansion of
vegetative treatment systems for the purpose of
surface runoff. The article provides a review of
engineering methods for the collection, transport and
treatment of paved surface runoff. It then goes on to
describe the different types of vegetative treatment
systems which are available, their value and role, and
appropriate situations for their use. Finally,
consideration is given to the need to monitor the
efficiency of these systems in order to establish
their effectiveness, and a description is given of
monitoring methods which may be appropriate.
