As part of Mansfield's compliance with the Texas Commission of Environmental Quality (TCEQ) small MS4 Stormwater Permit, the City has adopted the North Central Texas Council of Governments integrated Stormwater Management (iSWM) Design Manual (PDF) for Site Development dated January 2006. In order for this manual to be properly used, it is necessary to reference the City's Local Criteria Section (PDF). When combined, the two manuals are titled the City of Mansfield Storm Water Management Manual.
Post Construction Site Control
The City of Mansfield has adopted the iSWM Water Quality Measures for post construction site control.
On July 1, 2014 post construction water quality requirements became effective. Plats and detailed development site plans submitted prior to July 1 are exempt from the post construction water requirements.
All developers and design engineers are encouraged to review the Storm Water Management Manual prior to beginning design of any drainage systems.
