Our workshops fill up quickly so please don't delay in registering.
We hope you can join us!

Regenerative Stormwater Conveyance (RSC) Webinar
Regenerative Stormwater Conveyance (RSC) is a

n "up and coming" Stormwater Control Measure (SCM) that has been installed, albeit sparingly, across North Carolina. Please join NC State and NCDEQ personnel as we discuss what RSC's are and how exactly they function among various design iterations. From NC State monitoring of several RSC's and by synthesizing out-of-state design standards, an up-to-date, North Carolina-centric RSC design standard has been proposed for NC.
Learn what types of design requirements are needed for an RSC to be considered a "Primary SCM" by NCDEQ. The webinar will close with a presentation of RSC Minimum Design Criteria (MDC's), and this webinar is considered a supplement to the NCSU-NCDEQ MDC workshop series that is ongoing in 2024 & 2025.

Minimum Design Criteria (MDC) for Stormwater Design The state of North Carolina has redone design standards for every single stormwater control measure (SCM), aka Best Management Practice (BMP). The changes are based upon an NCDEQ-led work team consisting of researchers, local municipalities, and consultants to develop Minimum Design Criteria (MDCs) and establish pollutant removal credits for SCMs in North Carolina. Faculty from NC State along with NCDEQ personnel have teamed up to 1) explain the MDC process, 2) discuss SCM crediting information provided by DEQ and 3) review MDCs for approved SCMs. Attendees will participate in hands-on exercises that will allow for MDCs to be reviewed and applied to SCM designs. Attendees will also participate in a SCM tour. If you either design or review designs for SCMs, this is a “must do" training!
