Phase 2D - Non-GI/MTD

Generate the Phase 2D Non-GI & Manufactured Treatment Device (MTD) content by analyzing relevant guidance in the 2023 and 2026 NJ Stormwater BMP Manuals.

Use the uploaded BMP manual documents as reference material.

Focus on stormwater practices that are not categorized as Green Infrastructure and on Manufactured Treatment Devices (MTDs), including how these systems are used for pollutant removal and compliance with stormwater treatment requirements.

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

Organize the response using the following sections:

  1. Overview of Non-GI Stormwater Treatment Approaches
  2. Role of non-GI practices in stormwater management

  3. Situations where these systems are used instead of GI

  4. Manufactured Treatment Devices (MTDs)

  5. Purpose and function of MTD systems

  6. Typical treatment mechanisms described in the manuals

  7. Design and Implementation Considerations

  8. Installation or siting considerations described in the manuals

  9. Typical design documentation expectations

  10. Pollutant Removal and Performance

  11. How these systems contribute to TSS or other pollutant reduction

  12. Conceptual performance descriptions from the manuals

  13. Key Updates Between the 2023 and 2026 Manuals

  14. Changes to how MTDs or non-GI systems are discussed
  15. Any updates affecting engineering review or documentation

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