"Dr. Minton's "Stormwater Treatment" is a new arrival in the arsenal of tools available for storm water practitioners to consider when identifying solutions for controlling the discharge of pollutants in storm water runoff. The book offers engineers, scientists, planners and other specialists a review of the chemical, biological, and engineering principles related to storm water treatment technologies. The book also puts forward a broad range of technologies, both in the public domain and proprietary ones, for consideration by the designer when evaluating the specific storm water situation at hand.
We welcome Dr. Minton's book as an additional resource put forward in the quest to identify the best technological and cost effective solutions to address the complexities of understanding the mechanisms of storm water pollution in general, and storm water treatment in particular."

Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board

"I have just recently had time to read a few chapters in your new book and wanted to congratulate you on providing the engineering community with an enormous amount of useful information in a very digestible manner. So many textbooks nowadays are presented is such an intellectual fashion that the normal engineer or student find it difficult to decipher what the author is trying to say (other than I am smarter than you)."
Paul R.Wirfs, P.E.
Oregon Department of Transportation

"Great book!! You have done a very thorough job of providing up to date information on wet-weather systems."
Professor James Heaney, PhD, PE
University of Colorado

"I wanted to say well done and thanks for writing your book Stormwater Treatment. It is the first industry comprehensive book to address the technical aspects of stormwater. I find the book well written and organized. While it is an "easy" read, it has a great deal of technical information and background that can be used at both the introductory and advanced levels. It is exceptionally well referenced and indexed.
It has become the training standard for our company. I would strongly recommend that this text be used by regulatory engineers and design engineers to help wade through the myriad of information they get from many sources. I believe it would also be a great text at the University level for undergraduate or graduate instruction."
