Abstract:
Low-impact development, or LID, is a new stormwater management strategy. Instead of diverting runoff away from its origin, LID assimilates rainwater where it falls, through a system of small, discrete methods distributed throughout the landscape. It uses the hydrological functions that were there before the property was developed.
