Stormwater Management Program Reduce Stormwater Pollution From: Roads and Highways, Forest Roads, Public and Private Parcels
The project retrofitted the existing bed filter to be more effective at capturing fine sediment with the overall goal of improving the stormwater runoff quality discharging to the Lake. The project also fixed conveyance issues higher up in the catchment to increase the amount of runoff captured by the bed filter.
