An Urban Approach to LID

摘要

The city of Bremerton, Washington, has become a leader in efforts to implement the techniques for managing storm water that form part of what is known as low-impact development. In reducing combined sewer overflows, improving transportation options, and revamping parks, Bremerton offers proof of the promise offered by this approach, even in dense urban environments.rnThe city's success in this respect has been aided by efforts to educate engineering staff members to ensure that they understand the benefits conferred by this type of development.
