In a context of climate change, the sustainable management of rainwater has become an important issue in urban development. Due to urban densification, urban sprawl and, among other things, extreme weather events, the problems of flooding and backflow are becoming increasingly important and the sustainable management of stormwater can be one of the solutions. . It is therefore necessary to react quickly and integrate new stormwater management practices right from the planning stages of the territory and the development of regulatory tools in order to facilitate decision-making during the design and implementation of any project.
