Vegetated Filter Strip treats rain water runoff from parking lot before it reaches a swale which in turn discharges the stormwater into a nearby stream. Vegetated filter strips are now a widely accepted best management practice (BMP) for low impact development. They work on the principle of contact time and therefore require low runoff velocities. This is achieved by maintaining low-angled slopes and avoiding flow-concentrating features such as curbs.
