Many surface water bodies in South Dakota are impaired by sediment, nutrients, and bacteria from point and non-point sources. Stormwater runoff has been identified as a source of contamination in surface waters. Mixed-media filtration is a highly promising treatment option that can reduce the concentrations of multiple contaminants in stromwater runoff generated from highways and urban areas. We propose to develop a low-maintenance, low-cost mixed-media filtration system for stormwater treatment in South Dakota.
