A brief description of the institution's stormwater management initiatives:
We have built a system of collection four basins on campus. The majority of runoff from campus runs there. For construction of the new Clayton Center, a new collection basin was created. External funds supported stormwater management efforts. One such funding stream was from the Tennessee Department of Agriculture Forestry Division awarded $20,000 to the brand new Clayton Center for the Arts at Maryville College to support planting dozens of trees for shade and stormwater mitigation. http://www.maryvillecollege.edu/giving/recent-gifts-and-grants/
