As a property manager, you're the guardian of your property's infrastructure, including those sneaky stormwater systems! Stormwater tends to fly under the radar until a big splash happens, but it's actually a big deal that should be a priority for both property and community managers alike. #stormwatermanagement #propertymanagement

North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) recently installed green stormwater infrastructure (GSI), also called low-impact development, at a building and parking lot near its administrative offices in Wylie. GSI projects are designed to slow fast-moving stormwater using methods that mimic the natural environment. NTMWD services some of the fastest-growing counties in the United States. The rapid growth brings miles of new roads and thousands of new roofs every year, and these impervious surfaces change how stormwater flows across our watersheds.  Most infrastructure is built to move water off the roads and into storm drains as quickly as possible, preventing the gradual absorption of stormwater into the soil. According to David Cowan, NTMWD Watershed Manager, fast-moving stormwater can increase erosion and cause water quality issues. “With heavy rains, all the water that lands on impervious surfaces is going to rush into a storm drain,” he said. “It's going to flow into a stream, and the erosion that takes place is much greater than if you have, let's say, a field with native grasses.” #water #watershed #waterquality #greenstormwater #stormwater #infrastructure #environment

RE: “OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA, Feb. 29, 2024 --The Pacific Institute, a US-based global water think tank, in partnership with 2NDNATURE today released a new national assessment finding substantial opportunities for expanded stormwater capture and use approaches to improve water resilience in urban areas across the United States. The pivotal study quantifies the volumetric potential of stormwater runoff in urban areas, finding 59.5 million acre-feet per year (AFY) of urban stormwater runoff is generated, exceeding earlier estimates. This is equivalent to an annual average of more than 53 billion gallons per day.” ~Yo...Pacific Institute we agree and we have a proven solution!
