Low-impact development
Low-impact developmentAn innovative stormwater management approach with a basic principle that is modeled after nature, using design techniques that infiltrate, filter, store, evaporate, and detain runoff close to its source. Maximizing open space and use of rain barrels, rain gardens, cisterns, pervious concrete, and bioswales are just some of the methods used to retain rainwater onsite, thereby preventing pollution of nearby streams from excessive runoff. |
