Bioretention systems are shallow, vegetated depressions that capture, temporarily store, and filter stormwater runoff. Bioretention systems have an engineered soil media below the surface of the system that facilitates stormwater filtration and vegetative growth
Professional stormwater management involves planning, designing, and implementing systems to manage and treat stormwater runoff to protect water quality, prevent flooding, and ensure sustainable land development. Key components typically include:
Stormwater Collection: Systems like drains, gutters, and pipes that capture runoff.
Conveyance: Channels, culverts, or ditches that direct stormwater to appropriate treatment or discharge points.
Treatment: Techniques such as detention ponds, swales, infiltration systems, and filters that remove pollutants from stormwater before it enters natural water bodies.
Retention: Holding stormwater to allow for gradual release or infiltration, reducing flood risks.
Low Impact Development (LID): Strategies to mimic natural hydrology, such as green roofs, permeable pavements, and rain gardens.
Regulations and Compliance: Adhering to local, state, or federal guidelines for managing stormwater to protect ecosystems and infrastructure.
Monitoring and Maintenance: Ongoing evaluation and maintenance of stormwater systems to ensure their efficiency and longevity.
Effective stormwater management ensures the protection of both human communities and the environment by addressing runoff and its potential harmful impacts.
