BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPS) PRECEDENTS
REGIONAL PROJECTS
Centralized facilities designed
to receive large volumes of
runoff such as basins and
underground vaults.
Figure 121. The SMQMP proposed several significant regional
projects that include underground storage similar to what is shown
in this concept diagram. Source: Culver City Stormwater Quality
Master Plan, City of Culver City, 2021, page 110.
Biofiltration - Typical
GREEN STREET PROJECTS
Distributed, small scale
systems such as bioretention
and biofiltration areas
along roadways.
Figure 122. Biofiltration along city streets are an opportunity to
incorporate stormwater improvements along transit corridors.

City, 2021, page 138.
LOW IMPACT DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
Distributed, smaller scale
systems that infiltrate, harvest
and use, or treat runoff on
a parcel level. Examples
include infiltration BMPs such
as permeable pavement or
drywells, rainwater cisterns, and
rain gardens.
Figure 123. A dry well BMP can be used where there is limited area
on the surface for stormwater capture systems, and where deep
infiltration is feasible. Source: Culver City Stormwater Quality Master
