This extraction needs human review.

Planning/BMP guidance appendix for EBR Master Development Program (July 2007). Explicitly requires calculating pre-development runoff for a minimum ten-year design storm, but does not define a quantified water quality volume, named hydrologic method (e.g., Rational/TR-55), or required software.

Peak flow calculation method(s)
Ten-year design storm runoff rate based on rainfall and land cover (method not further named)

The rate of stormwater runoff, such as in cubic feet per second (cfs) is a factor of the ten-year design storm rainfall and the land cover over which it flows.
