New projects should be sited, designed, constructed and maintained to
prevent or, if prevention is infeasible, to minimize the discharge of
pollutants into the Bay by: (a) controlling pollutant sources at the
project site; (b) using construction materials that contain
nonpolluting materials; and (c) applying appropriate, accepted and
effective best management practices, especially where water dispersion
is poor and near shellfish beds and other significant biotic resources.
