Stormwater Management Manual 2024 Proposed Updates | Public Information Session
Environmental Services proposed changes to the Stormwater Management Manual (SWMM) in July 2024. This presentation is an overview of those changes.
About the SWMM:
The Stormwater Management Manual (SWMM) provides policy and design requirements that govern stormwater management. All development, redevelopment, and improvement projects within Portland on private and public property and in the public right-of-way must meet SWMM requirements.
The SWMM enables the City of Portland to comply with regulatory requirements, protect watershed resources and infrastructure investments, and achieve important citywide goals with every development or improvement.
About Environmental Services:
Environmental Services - the City of Portland’s sewer and stormwater utility - protects public health and the environment by collecting and recovering resources from the city’s wastewater, managing stormwater, and restoring and protecting Portland’s rivers, streams, and watersheds.

    Nice video. But I was distracted by the fact that in this example rain garden it really doesn't look like the deepest part is 10' or more from the house.

    Those got to be those ass wipes that don't break down you're not supposed to flush them although they say flushable.

      You can use corrugated pipe that is not true I had some installed at my house 50 years ago and it is still working great and I also live in Ohio.

    Muito bom. Uma pequena ação individual que pode contribuir pra diminuirmos o escoamento superficial responsável pela contaminação de pequenos córregos e rios

    My first construction job was at Swan Island Pump Station in 2005 with Impregilo-Healy, JV. I was only there for the last one and a half years but it has left a large and longterm impression on me. Later I joined in 2007 with Keiwitt to do the eastside of the project. I was there until Jan. 2010 and was able to be in almost from the start at the Opera shaft. I had great people not just on my crew but in all the areas and crafts, that i worked with. Some very intelligent and skilled people shared with me their knowledge and for that I am grateful. What a lucky girl I was to have The Big Pipe as the steppingstones to my career in construction. Listening to the video they make it sound like a big deal but you'll never be able to understand how huge and complex the whole operation wa or How many different people with various different roles and jobs it took to bring everything together. I am proud and thankful that I was able to be a part of an awesome and positive inpacting soulution to what was an increasing demise for our city. Thank you to everyone who was there working with me and teaching me their tricks of the trade.

    I was privileged and blessed to be a small part of the team that worked on this project from 2002-2012. I first started working on this project as part of the design team with Parsons Brinckerhoff. I later was hired by Impregilo-Healy, JV as one of the CAD Operators on the West Side CSO Tunnel Project and, finally, as the CAD Manager with Kiewit-Bilfinger Berger, AJV on the East Side CSO Tunnel Project. This project was one of the most rewarding and fulfilling accomplishments of my life. I will be forever grateful to the many hundreds of people I worked alongside during those years. Today, we can all look back at this project with great pride and know that we made history for many generations to come. Good job Portland and good job Team!

    Hi, Not sure if it's my Internet or something, but this video seems to have a glitch. The video skips around and stops suddenly for unknown reason starting around 10-15 minutes.
