Abstract: According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Storm water management is the effort to reduce runoff of rainwater or melted snow into streets, lawns and other sites and the improvement of water quality. Storm water runoff from urban and suburban areas generates numerous pollutants. The areas include residential areas, parks, commercial areas, industrial areas and road or highways. Nowadays there is an increasing amount of everyday flood incidents around the world, the impact of which poses a challenge on the society, economy and environment. The goals of storm water management include protecting our environment; reducing flooding to protect people and property; reducing demand on public storm water drainage systems; supporting healthy streams and rivers; and creating healthier, more sustainable communities. In this project we are aiming to manage storm water effectively by providing appropriate storm water control measures (SCMs). Index Terms �Storm water management, runoff, flood, rainwater, pollutants.
