Impact/Purpose:
To inform the public.
Description:
A short description is given of the rain gardens that were constructed as part of the large parking lot project. I discuss the construction of the gardens this past summer, including the installation of sensors and monitoring devices that will allow us to compare hydrologic performance in bioretention cells of different sizes which are receiving approximately equivalent amounts of stormwater runoff from the adjacent roof and impervious section of the parking lot.
