Phase 2C - Large-Scale GI

Generate the Phase 2C Large-Scale Green Infrastructure (GI) content by analyzing the relevant guidance in the 2023 and 2026 NJ Stormwater BMP Manuals.

Use the uploaded manual documents as reference material.

Focus on large-scale green infrastructure systems that may be used in stormwater management design, such as: • constructed stormwater wetlands • wet ponds or extended detention systems • large-scale infiltration practices • regional or distributed GI systems that manage runoff at watershed or site scale

Output: Produce a structured engineering summary suitable for a stormwater training guide.

Organize the response using the following sections:

  1. Overview of Large-Scale Green Infrastructure
  2. Purpose and role in stormwater management

  3. Typical BMP types described in the manuals

  4. Design Characteristics of Large-Scale GI Systems

  5. Key design features described in the manuals

  6. Typical siting and layout considerations

  7. Hydrologic and Treatment Performance

  8. How these systems manage runoff and pollutant removal

  9. Conceptual performance expectations described in the manuals

  10. Key Updates Between the 2023 and 2026 Manuals

  11. Changes to design guidance or system classification

  12. Updates affecting engineering design or review

  13. Practical Implications for Stormwater Design

  14. How these systems are incorporated into development projects
  15. Documentation typically required in engineering submissions

Constraints: - Do not reference tools, file-system operations, or completion commands. - Assume the manuals are available through uploaded assets. - If a detail is not explicitly described in the manuals, state that rather than inventing information.
