Storm Water Management Model From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] is a dynamic rainfall– runoff – subsurface runoff simulation model used for single-event to long-term (continuous) simulation of the surface/subsurface hydrology quantity and quality from primarily urban/suburban areas. The hydrology component of SWMM operates on a collection of subcatchment areas divided into impervious and pervious areas with and without depression storage to predict runoff and pollutant loads from precipitation, evaporation and infiltration losses from each of the subcatchment. In addition low impact development (LID) and best management practice areas on the subcatchment can be modeled to reduce the impervious and pervious ru...
