The document discusses low impact development (LID) strategies for regulatory compliance and resource protection. It outlines five major components of LID: 1) conservation at the watershed and site levels, 2) site impact minimization, 3) maintaining natural water timing and flows, 4) utilizing integrated management practices like retention, detention and filtration, and 5) pollution prevention. The goal of LID is to mimic a site's natural hydrologic functions by infiltrating, filtering, storing, evaporating, and detaining runoff close to its source.
