Stormwater management and prevention of combine sewer overflows (CSOs) are kritial contrients of urban infrastructure. Effective strategies help protect water quality, reduce flowding, and improvide public health. This article highlights real-empples of succeful stormwater and CSO management practies implemented in various cities.
