Abstract:
The use of Low Impact Development (LID) alternatives requires the establishment of appropriate regulations and guidelines on acceptable practices and developing consensus among stakeholders, thus assuring the rights of all water-users and for conflict resolution. This content analysis aims to examine whether stormwater regulations and guidelines have addressed the use of LID alternatives in urban settings and compares the current state of regulations in the context of Canadian provinces and territories., A list of eight core criteria relevant to the implementation of LID has been identified and an ordinal scale ranging from 1 to 6 is proposed to track the progress towards LID-friendly regulations in each province. Furthermore, based on comparative assessment, Canadian provinces are categorized into three groups: \'highly, moderately, and slightly LID-friendly\' to project a broad view of the current state of regulations required to promote LID alternatives. . Results show that LID has become the mainstream technology for stormwater management in Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec, which are categorized as \'highly LID-friendly\' provinces. The provinces where LID alternatives have gained considerable acceptance are categorized as \'moderately LID-friendly\', which include Manitoba, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Saskatchewan. Lastly, the province of New Brunswick is categorized as \'slightly LID-friendly\', because of very limited use of LID alternatives in the stormwater management regulations. These findings of this content analysis can be of significant value to strengthen provincial/territorial regulations and extend the benefits of LID in stormwater quality management and sustainable water management.
摘要:
使用低影响开发(LID)替代方案需要就可接受的做法建立适当的法规和准则,并在利益相关者之间达成共识,从而确保所有用水者的权利和解决冲突的权利。此内容分析旨在检查雨水法规和指南是否已解决城市环境中LID替代品的使用,并比较加拿大各省和地区的法规现状。,已经确定了与实施LID有关的八个核心标准的清单,并提议采用1至6的序数标准,以跟踪每个省在实现LID友好型法规方面的进展。此外,基于比较评估,加拿大各省分为三类:\'高度,适度,和稍微LID友好的\'项目的当前状态的法规需要推广LID替代品的广泛观点。.结果表明,LID已成为艾伯塔省雨水管理的主流技术,不列颠哥伦比亚省,安大略省,魁北克,被归类为“高度LID友好”省份。LID替代品获得广泛认可的省份被归类为“中度LID友好”,其中包括曼尼托巴省,纽芬兰和拉布拉多,新斯科舍省,爱德华王子岛,还有萨斯喀彻温省.最后,新不伦瑞克省被归类为“稍微LID友好”,由于雨水管理法规中LID替代品的使用非常有限。此内容分析的这些发现对于加强省/地区法规并扩展LID在雨水质量管理和可持续水管理中的好处具有重要价值。
