Definition of Engineered Rights of Way

An engineered right of way is an area within a runoff or leaching GWPA that is constructed in a way that results in increased runoff and collection of storm water.

These sites include railroad ballasts and berms, public roadsides, and highway medium strips or similar areas, but not canal or ditch banks or utility lines.
