Which of the following best describes the institution’s approach to rainwater management?:
A brief description of the institution’s green infrastructure and LID practices:
UW – Green Bay has a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) General Permit. In 2008, a contractor conducted a stormwater analysis to estimate annual stormwater loadings (sediment and phosphorous) for all storm sewer outfalls. This establishes a base pollution load and the pollution reduction resulting from the existing stromwater management measures on campus.
Currently, the campus uses best management practices of rooftop, parking and sidewalk disconnection, swale drainage, and wet detention ponds to reduce impact of total suspended solids (TSS). As of the 2008 study, the BMP in place have already met the TSS reduction level of 40% required by 2013.
