Why is this important?
The project idea
- in the perfect world
Register
construction
and
maintenance
costs of
recent WSUD
Compare
costs of
different
WSUD
options
Compare
costs of
WSUD with
traditional
stormwater
management
Develop unit
prices for
construction
and
maintenance
Comparison of WSUD projects
Comparison of WSUD and traditional
solutions
Estimated construction cost of WSUD and traditional stormwater management

Reality
Difficulties in
retrieving financial
data from already
completed
construction
projects
Lack of common
framework to
record the
economy of
WSUD projects
Difficulties in
obtaining adequate
overview of each
WSUD project
because they involve
many partners in a
wider planning
process

What can be gained from WSUDeconomy
• A database of experienced cost for WSUD-facilities, based
on an empiric dataset.
• A framework for economic comparison between different
types of WSUD-facilities and conventional drainage
solutions.
• A basis for developing a "price-lifetime" catalog over
different WSUD-types, for estimating annual value
depreciations
• A basis for discussing the practice in accounting WSUDcosts, and thereby the impact of WSUD-facilities to the
benchmarking-system.

We are interested in:
Experienced cost of WSUD (green)
Estimated and experienced cost of WSUD (green/blue)
Estimated cost of WSUD and conventional management
(blue/orange)
Hopefully we can return the first data primo 2016 
