Wet-weather flow (WWF) management literature review database (MS Word File)
This file contains over 4,000 references pertaining to WWF management in a zipped Microsoft Word, Office '95 document. The file was zipped using WinZip for Windows '95. The literature is divided into the following categories: CSO, SSO, infiltration/inflow, receiving-water impacts, modeling, WWF-quality characterization, historical literature, WWF-collection systems, detention, best management practices, and sampling and monitoring. These divisions are based on a rough key word search conducted in ProCite (see next item). The file is periodically updated as more literature is added to the database. The database is being compiled as part of an EPA-sponsored research project. For further information please contact Dr. Robert Pitt.

USGS NURP database

The zipped file contains 2 readme files and an executable file that automatically unzips the data when executed. This file was attained from the contribution of Len Wright from the University of Colorado to the SWMM Users Group Listserver. One of the readme files contains detailed information about the contents of the database and the appropriate acknowledgments.

EPA NURP database
This zipped file contains data collected in urban areas as part of the EPA-sponsored Nationwide Urban Runoff Program (NURP). It complements the data contained in the USGS files above. This dataset was contributed by Dr. Robert Pitt at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. This material was zipped using WinZip '95 and should be unzipped with the same (be sure that the "use directory names" checkbox is checked when extracting the files!!!!). Each folder of data contains the report for the site, a description of the data, and the data itself. Some of the sites have more data than others.
