Community outreach - We connect with those who live and work in the watershed to better understand stormwater priorities.
Inventory data collection and assessment - We collect more details on the location and condition of the stormwater system.
Water Flow - We use meters to track how much water flows in the watershed and what areas flood. This will help us determine what upgrades can be made to streams and stormwater pipes in the watershed.
Stream assessments - We document stream conditions and look for streambank erosion.
Analysis of watershed - We analyze and observe flooding in the watershed.
Project Recommendations
This is an example of a constructed stormwater improvement. A concrete, rectangular culvert that carries water under Knights Way when it rains. This replaced a smaller pipe that could not handle the amount of rainwater that flows through the neighborhood.
Based on our investigations we identify ways to improve the watershed by:
- Reducing flooding impacts with upgraded stormwater pipes;
- Improving water quality; and,
- Repairing streambanks (or riparian area).
