Current stormwater design guidance typically recommends starting with preservation of the natural landscape and hydrology wherever feasible. But, even with

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) stores rainwater for reuse to supply non-potable uses like irrigation, wash water, toilet flushing, and laundry. During long dry

As mentioned in Part One of this blog post series, a successful bioretention media installation must have a framework in place as guidance for managing media

Engineered media is the heart of bioretention system performance. Therefore, preserving media integrity is of the utmost importance. A successful bioretention

It’s never surprising to see some type of fabric or geotextile called-out around an underground detention or infiltration system. The note is common across

Bioretention Part Three: Lessons Being Learned – Siting Issues and Inlet DesignNot done with siting issues yet, maybe this becomes five parts? One issue on

As a volume based stormwater control measure, bioretention systems are providing beneficial use in that they reduce runoff volumes and peak flows. In areas

As bioretention becomes more popular, many types of designs are being deployed throughout the U.S. Though relatively simple in concept, many are finding that
