2017 Winner of Best Ultra Urban BMP, Chesapeake Storm Water Network (2nd Place). 2014 Winner of Best Ocean Friendly Garden, In a public setting (1st Place).
I played a pivotal role designing, facilitating and permitting the construction of two bio-retention systems in an ultra- urban setting for the District Department of the Environment in Constitution Square. As a retro-fit and demonstration project, the NoMa BID LID project not only was unique in its ability to collect/ infiltrate runoff or divert overflow surges to the District CSO, but it also serves as an example of modern storm-water technology,. Working with a civil engineer from Ecosolutions LLC, I assisted DDOE in developing LID standards and monitoring storm-water systems. By working closely with the various municipal agencies, utility companies and stakeholders, we were able to provide a highly functional LID system and passive recreational amenity that blends well with it’s surroundings and has had an extremely positive response from the public.
This Project was acquired by and worked on with Dave Whitney, PE - Principal of EcoSolutions LLC.
