Abstract:

The guidelines contained in this report for the management of highway runoff on wetlands cover many functions: wetland creation and maintenance, wildlife considerations, regulatory controls, wetland monitoring, modeling techniques and highway construction, design, and maintenance practices affecting the relationship between highway runoff and wetlands. The report also addresses the feasibility of using certain wetland types for mitigating the effects of highway runoff on wetlands. The report includes an extensive bibliography with entries grouped by major subject areas. In addition to this report, a companion document titled, "Effects of Highway Runoff on Wetlands," is available on request and is highly recommended as an excellent, compreshensive source document on the interaction between wetland systems and highway runoff, the effects of highway runoff on wetlands, and the possible assimilation and mitigation of highway runoff constituents by wetlands. Wetland classification schemes and case studies are also presented in this companion document.
