Creating a Wetland Stormwater Best Management Practice–A Retrofit
Publication: Building Partnerships
Abstract
Villanova has recently been awarded an EPA 319 Non-point Source Implementation Grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection to retrofit an existing detention pond creating a stormwater wetland. An overview of the project focus and framework is presented. The objectives of the project are (1) to provide non-point pollutant treatment to a degraded urban watershed and stream segment through conversion of a stormwater detention basin to an extended detention wetland best management practice (BMP); and (2) to create a permanent wetland BMP demonstration site that has substantial research, education, and technology transfer value for the future.
