  2. Is the use of a different watershed model, such as LSPC which has been tested extensively for simulating pollution in urban settings, be considered instead of using EPA SWMM?
    Although the NARP Workplan specifically refers to the EPA SWMM model for watershed modeling, it is not the only option the NBWW will consider pending the NBWW NARP proposal provides sufficient reasoning and data that supports a different preferred model (such as the LSPC referenced above).
