TNJ Institute: Green Infrastructure and Transportation
February 6, 2019 | ||
9:30 am | to | 12:30 pm |
Hosted by Jersey Water Works and Together North Jersey
Green stormwater infrastructure is a cost-effective, resilient approach to managing wet weather impacts while providing community benefits. Unlike conventional drainage systems that are designed to move stormwater away from the built environment, green infrastructure reduces and treats stormwater at its source, using vegetation, soil, and other measures that restore some of the natural processes to manage water. This workshop will be of interest to engineers, planners, elected officials, public works directors, and other local and regional officials interested in investing in green infrastructure within their transportation network.
