Managing Wet Weather with Green Infrastructure Handbook Series published by United States Environmental Protection Agency

"How to" manuals for municipal implementation

Written from the American perspective, the Municipal Handbook is a series of documents published by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) in 2008 - 2009 to help local officials implement green infrastructure in their communities. 

Handbook topics cover issues such as financing, operation and maintenance, incentives, designs, codes & ordinances, and a variety of other subjects. The handbook documents are intended to serve as "how to" manuals on these topics, written primarily from the standpoint of municipal implementation.
