Cahill Associates served as part of a nationwide team of consultants assisting the US EPA and NOAA in the development of programs for urban growth-related pollution sources within coastal drainage. The team's efforts resulted in the 1993 release: Guidance Specifying Management Measures For Sources Of Nonpoint Pollution In Coastal Waters.

Cahill's efforts involved the development of specific recommendation to reduce NPS from site development. Cahill Associates work focused particularly on nonstructural measures of pollution control - measures that prevent pollution rather than mitigate it.

CA also provided information relating to effective structural management measures; such as the porous pavement/underground recharge bed technology and other recharge-oriented measures. A technique that Wesley Horner or Cahill Associates developed for the State of New Jersey's coastal management program, Minimum Disturbance / Minimum Maintenance Land Development, was also incorporated into this new EPA/NOAA guidance.
