In the framework of stormwater runoff management in existing urban drainage systems, the Department of Environmental Engineering of Genoa has carried out a monitoring campaign to characterize the pollutant load connected to point and non point pollution sources. Three pilot sites have been installed in order to investigate first flush water quality resulting from both urban surfaces, roofs and roads, and from external areas of productive sites, a gas station and an auto recycler/dismantler facility. Both water quality and flow measurements data have been collected by analysing the following parameters: total suspended solids, COD, NH4+, pH, heavy metals in dissolved forms and total hydrocarbons. In this paper the different sampling stations equipment and preliminary results are shown

Abstract
In the framework of stormwater runoff management in existing urban drainage systems, the Department of Environmental Engineering of Genoa has carried out a monitoring campaign to characterize the pollutant load connected to point and non point pollution sources. Three pilot sites have been installed in order to investigate first flush water quality resulting from both urban surfaces, roofs and roads, and from external areas of productive sites, a gas station and an auto recycler/dismantler facility. Both water quality and flow measurements data have been collected by analysing the following parameters: total suspended solids, COD, NH4+, pH, heavy metals in dissolved forms and total hydrocarbons. In this paper the different sampling stations equipment and preliminary results are shown
