The research involves simulating a decision problem for the optimal mix of BMPs to place in a city stormwater system. The product linked a watershed model, a GIS-based land use database, and a numerical optimization routine and solved for an optimal filter insert system for the City of Costa Mesa, California.
The project resulted in a research article accepted for publication: Smith, C. Scott, Raul P. Lejano, Oladele Ogunseitan, and Aaron Hipp (2007), "Cost Effectiveness of Regulation-Compliant Filtration to Control Sediment and Metal Pollution in Urban Runoff" Environmental Science & Technology (in press).
