Green Infrastructure for Stormwater Management Project Summary

ASLA is providing the EPA with case studies and data on landscape architecture projects that successfully and sustainably manage stormwater and preserve and protect the country’s water supply. ASLA encourages all its members working on stormwater management projects to submit case studies and provide detailed information about these projects. Please help ASLA's data gathering efforts by taking the time to provide valuable information that will be used to inform decisionmakers on the use and benefits of green infrastructure design practices.

Please submit one entry for each project.

Please submit your project data by March 31, 2011.
