The volume is the first in the four-volume report. The guidelines are presented in three parts: general guidelines, general design principles; and practices intended for use wherever practicable without the necessity of identifying a specific problem. The guidelines presented are relatively low-cost and can be incorporated into existing highway design procedures and maintenance programs. Design guidelines - are presented for designing four effective site-specific management measures: vegetative controls, detention basins, infiltration systems, and wetlands. Highway applications - are discussed for management measures (singly and in combination) to highway systems.
