Abstract
The report is supplement to document Control Strategies, Costs and Impacts for Nonpoint Sources - July 1977. The nonstructural alternatives are those that are primarily implemented through governmental regulation of, or influence upon, land development activity. The various aspects explored to control nonpoint sources of pollution are: (1) controls over location of land development, (2) controls over form of land development, and (3) the coupling of control influencing both form and location. Due to the uniqueness of agricultural nonpoint source pollution, these controls are treated separately. Finally, the report concludes with discussion of E.P.A.'s general permit program and its reliance on nonstructural controls as part of expanded NPDES permitting process.
