Continuous monitoring and adaptive control (stormwater management) explained

Continuous monitoring and adaptive control (CMAC) is a category of stormwater best management practice that allows for a wider range of operation of detention and retention ponds. CMAC systems typically consist of a water level sensor, an actuated valve, and an internet connection.^[1]

Specific applications of CMAC include flood protection, water quality treatment, water reuse, and channel protection.^[2]
