 Recreational trails provide opportunities to enjoy Dane County’s many scenic areas, however,
-their construction may impact water quality and be subject to County stormwater standards. Depending on characteristics of the trail and surrounding land area, there are stormwater treatment options that provide flexibility when planning work on a trail. The prescribed options discussed in this guidance will assist municipal or state trail designers with meeting County stormwater performance standards. This guidance applies only to new impervious area directly resulting from a trail installation – not to other impervious features such as parking lots or restrooms.

 Trail projects that create 20,000 square feet or more of new impervious surface require a County stormwater management permit. Any paved or graveled surface is considered impervious. If the site (e.g., park) is already covered by a stormwater permit, any additional impervious area requires a revision to that permit. Redevelopment does not apply to recreational areas.
