integrated Stormwater Management (iSWM)

NCTCOG is working to develop a catalog of projects in North Central Texas that utilize integrated Stormwater Management (iSWM™) techniques. We would like your help to expand our knowledge of projects located in the region that incorporate integrated Site Design Practices and/or iSWM Stormwater Controls. Please provide information on projects that you have been involved with or are simply aware of in your community by clicking here. You can see existing case study projects by visiting the iSWM Tools page.

The iSWM Program for Construction and Development is a cooperative initiative that assists cities and counties to achieve their goals of water quality protection, streambank protection, and flood mitigation, while also helping communities meet their construction and post-construction obligations under state stormwater permits.

Development and redevelopment by their nature increase the amount of imperviousness in our surrounding environment. This increased imperviousness translates into loss of natural areas, more sources for pollution in runoff, and heightened flooding risks. To help mitigate these impacts, more than 60 local governments are cooperating to proactively create sound stormwater management guidance for the region through the integrated Stormwater Management (iSWM) Program.

The iSWM Program is comprised of four types of documentation and tools. These are used to complement each other and to support the development process.
