Innovative Solutions for Stormwater Management in Residential Areas

This presentation by Charles D. Absher, a Senior Water Resources Engineer with JJG, discusses effective strategies to mitigate the impact of impervious surfaces on stormwater management. Key approaches include the implementation of porous pavement, rain gardens, and disconnected roof drains to promote infiltration and storage. These solutions are vital for enhancing urban resilience and managing runoff effectively. Join us as we explore these practical techniques for sustainable residential development, presented at the Georgia Perimeter College on June 28, 2008.
