Landis, Benjamin Young

Abstract:

A barren stormwater runoff collection pond located near the Currituck County Cooperative Extension Center was designed to collect rainwater runoff from the parking lot and surrounding lawns and filter out polluting elements; however, it was not working up to its full potential. Landis describes the makeover that made the pond into a demonstration site to teach individuals about stormwater pollution and the health of surrounding areas.
