However, no comprehensive United States stormwater harvesting guidance document was identified that ties all of these elements together. Two comprehensive Australian stormwater harvesting guidance documents are available and should be consulted on general stormwater harvesting issues:

As part of the Australian Guidelines for Water Recycling, the National Resource

Management Ministerial Council, the Environment Protection and Heritage Council, and the National Health and Medical Research Council published a guidance document in July 2009 titled National Water Quality Management Strategy – Australian Guidelines for Water Recycling: Managing Health and Environmental Risks (Phase 2): Stormwater Harvesting and Reuse.(13)

In 2006, the Department of Environment and Conservation in New South Wales

published a guidance document titled Managing Urban Stormwater: Harvesting and Reuse.(14) The Australian guidance documents are excellent references containing general principles that can be applied to any stormwater harvesting project, but there are differences between the 1-3

Australian and Texas regulations that apply to stormwater harvesting, and there is a need for additional, Texas-specific guidance. ...

Besides just generally adding more content, I would focus on making sure there is enough context when introducing the different aspects of stormwater harvesting systems. - Luisricardodelarosa (talk) 20:04, 28 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
