Green Stormwater Infrastructure
& Best Management Practices

Picture
Download the Vermont Guide to Stormwater Management ​for Homeowners and Small Businesses Here
Green Stormwater Infrastructure comes in many shapes and sizes and along with stormwater best management practices can help make your property Storm Smart. Buildings, yards, forests, and driveways all influence the way water flows across your property and can all be managed to increase the amount of water that slows down, spreads, out and sinks in before making it down stream.

The Vermont Guide to Stormwater for Homeowners and Small Businesses can help you identify which practices make sense for your property.
