Goal
Determine lifecycle costs and savings associated with low impact development
techniques and best management practices for stormwater utilities.
Requirements
Conduct a lifecycle cost analysis (LCCA) for stormwater utilities according to the
National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 565: Evaluation of
Best Management Practices for Highway Runoff Control Guidelines Manual.
NCHRP Report 565 can be accessed at the following link:

Highwa_158397.aspx
The Guidelines Manual is available to download as a CD image file (*.iso). This file can
be burned to a CD and then viewed via in PDF.

ALL
LLCA is normally part of the NPS VA process. Sustainability elements like stormwater cost analysis could be included in VAs and given credits accordingly.
PAGE2, EXAMPLE
Consider using alternative LID BMPs as an example for estimating and comparing LCCs. Show in the example cost savings from reducing stormwater treatment.
