When faced with designing culverts, storm sewers, or underground detention systems, one of the critical decisions you’ll make as the Engineer of Record is pipe selection. Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP) is often the go-to solution for stormwater applications, and for good reason.

Storm sewers are essential in managing rainwater and stormwater, ensuring that our streets and neighborhoods are protected from flooding. Advanced storm sewer systems not only offer enhanced performance but also provide significant cost benefits and ease of installation

In stormwater management, manufactured treatment devices (MTDs) are often recognized as innovative solutions for controlling runoff and enhancing water quality. Yet, despite their growing adoption, several misconceptions about these devices persist, leading to confusion and misinformed decisions. This blog will tackle some of the most prevalent myths surrounding MTDs, shedding light on their true capabilities and effectiveness.

Given the pivotal role civil engineers play in designing and implementing infrastructure, a deep understanding of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) ensures compliance with regulatory requirements and contributes to the broader goals of environmental stewardship and public health. This post provides detailed insights into the triggers, development, and implementation of TMDLs, emphasizing the integral role civil engineers have in achieving and maintaining water quality standards.
