Wisconsin Construction Site Best Management Practice Handbook

The Department of Natural Resources has developed a new series of construction site erosion and sediment control technical standards that replace the Wisconsin Construction Site Best Management Practice Handbook.  Each technical standard can be downloaded from the internet.

Wisconsin Storm Water Manual

Originally published in 1994, this technical manual was developed to aid local units of government, developers, contractors, and consulting engineers in controlling storm water pollutants from existing and new developments. Part One is an overview with chapters on Storm Water Planning, Storm Water Legal Issues, Pollution Prevention and Best Management Practices. The second part of the manual, published in early 2000, is an elaboration of technical design guidelines for storm water management practices including sections on hydrology, infiltration basins and trenches, wet detention basins, artificial wetland storm water management systems, filter strips and grassed waterways.

Individual "Storm Water" modules are available for download at the UW-Extension Publications Learning Store [exit DNR] or order from DOA:  Publication #1720, DNR WR-349
