Green Infrastructure and Flood Resiliency Webinar
January 29, 2015 @ 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
Green Infrastructure and Flood Resiliency-Land Use Management as an Adaptation Strategy in the Built Environment
This webinar addresses assessment, planning, and adaptation to not only better prepare for the next emergency, but to sustainably manage flooding, and stormwater to maintain human health and a vibrant local economy.
Participants will leave this webinar with knowledge about the latest innovative approaches to understand the effects of inland flooding and apply low-impact development (LID), site design, and smart growth practices at different scales of implementation. There will be reference to pioneering hydrology-based, sub-watershed approaches that have shown mitigation potential not only for storm water and flooding, but to the loss and degradation in water quality.
