Description This document summarizes the results of a Stormwater Action Monitoring (SAM) study that evaluated the effectiveness of bioretention media in treating stormwater for 13 water years. This study builds on the findings from a previous SAM study showing that filtration through bioretention reduces stormwater toxicity and protects sensitive fish-coho salmon.
