Event: Low Impact Development Summit
When: June 23-24, 2008 - Asheville, NC |
|
Low Impact Development (LID) is an alternative to traditional site design, incorporating water treatment structures into the landscape and building footprint. The LID features are constructed to mimic pre-development hydrologic conditions and in turn, decrease surface runoff, erosion, and non-point source pollution, resulting in improved water quality. With economic benefits and flexible designs available, LID principles are becoming a more popular, attractive way to treat water quality on sites. |
