Abstract:

This report describes work completed for the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Project 25-60, “Watershed Approach to Mitigating Hydrologic Impacts of Transportation Projects.” The overall goal of the project was to: “Develop guidance for State DOTs for developing and implementing watershed-based strategies and techniques for mitigating hydrologic impacts of transportation projects.” The project focused on meeting needs and constraints of state departments of transportation (DOTs) facing increasingly stringent requirements for stormwater quantity and quality while looking for opportunities to collaborate with regulatory agencies and other potential external partners/stakeholders for solutions where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This project is focused on out-of-kind landscape modifications for mitigation. The intended result of the research on completion of the project is guidance on how to: Identify opportunities in a watershed to conserve, restore, enhance, or create landscape features for hydrologic mitigation; Plan, site, and design features for hydrologic mitigation; Quantify the hydrologic outcomes from selected features; and Develop strategies for implementing a watershed-based approach to hydrologic mitigation.
