Urban Storm Water Management, Third Edition, covers the design, installation, and maintenance of storm water management systems, addresses the impact of urban development on runoff and infiltration, and focuses on storm water management relative to flooding and water pollution. Recognizing that urbanization increases and accelerates runoff, reduces infiltration, and deteriorates water quality, the author proposes stormwater runoff as a resource that can be conserved for reuse. He suggests the reuse of stormwater runoff in general, and rainwater from roofs in particular, as a cost-effective means of achieving long-term sustainability. In addition, the book explores green infrastructure as the future of stormwater management and introduces techniques that can help reduce the thermal impacts of stormwater management practices.

- Provides an updated presentation of urbanization’s impact on stormwater.

- Presents further analysis of the universal runoff model and the application of this model to non-uniform rainfalls.

- Offers a more detailed presentation of stormwater management systems, especially bio-filtration basins.

- Includes a comparative analysis of the effectiveness and costs of best management practices (BMPs).

- Contains an in-depth discussion of the means of collecting stormwater, such as roof rain for outdoor and certain indoor uses.

Hormoz Pazwash, PhD, earned his BS, CE with highest honor among the

entire graduating class of 1963 from Tehran University. He continued his

graduate studies under the supervision of the late Dr. Ven Te Chow at the

University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign, earning an MS and a PhD in

civil engineering. In 1970 he joined the Faculty of Engineering at Tehran

University and, in the next 7 years, held the positions of assistant professor,

associate professor, and chairman of the Department of Civil Engineering.

His other academic appointments have included visiting professorships at

the University of California, Berkeley; the University of Akron in Ohio;

and an associate professorship at Northeastern University in Boston. He

has also served as an adjunct professor at Stevens Institute of Technology in

Hoboken, New Jersey. Dr. Pazwash has received various academic awards, including a fellowship at

Tehran University and a Fulbright Scholarship at the University of California, Berkeley.

He is listed in the 1992–1993 premier edition of Marcus Who’s Who in Science and Engineering

and the International Who’s Who of Professionals. From mid1985 when he ventured from full time

teaching at Northeastern University to engineering practice until his retirement in 2021, Dr. Pazwash

has been engaged in engineering practice. In those 36 years, he has been involved with the design

and consultation of drainage systems, fl ood control and above all stormwater management projects.

He has also taught a number of senior- and graduate-level courses in the fi eld of water resources and

stormwater management at Stevens Institute of Technology.

Dr. Pazwash is the author of over 50 papers, seven books including 1st and 2nd editions of Urban

Stormwater Management and a chapter of the Encyclopedia of Environmental Management,

published September 2014. His professional experience covers a broad range of disciplines in water

resources and hydrologic/hydraulic engineering. He has been involved in projects that include

evaluation of regional water resources; the design of pipelines, channels, and culverts; hydrologic

and hydraulic analysis of rivers and streams; fl ood control projects; reservoir and dam safety studies;

and in particular the design of drainage and stormwater management systems. Dr. Pazwash is well

respected in the fi eld of engineering due to his professional accomplishments.

Dr. Pazwash had held Professional Engineering licenses in New Jersey and New York. He is a life

member and Fellow of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and a Diplomat of the

American Academy of Water Resources Engineers (AAWRE), D.WRE. He is also a member of the

American Water Resources Association (AWRA).
