Over the past years, rapid growth due to urbanization and industrialization, the changes in Land over and land use patterns have resulted in permanent environmental pollution to the hydrological processes. The hydrological cycle in cities is seriously affected due to increasing impervious areas as a result of urban development which has enhanced the risk of urban flooding. The increase in the impermeable area decreases infiltration, increases the runoff and reduces the time of concentration. Hence, for a given amount of rainfall, greater flooding is generated. Understanding the scope and limitation of sustainable stormwater management techniques detailed literature review is carried out. Site suitability is based on spatial analysis of data like geomorphology, slope, recharge condition, landuse and Landover map. Then analyzing local site conditions possible techniques that could be used to manage stormwater runoff are recommended and conclusions are drawn on the same.
