Join the first presentation of three in the Beaver Watershed Alliance LID Online Series on Wednesday, May 6, at 10 am (CST).

The topic is Mission Impossible – Keeping Permeable Pavement Permeable, with Anthony Kendrick, Project Manager and Green Infrastructure Specialist at Construction EcoServices, based in Houston, TX.

The installation of permeable pavement is becoming more common in regions that are implementing Green Infrastructure and Low Impact Development. Now it’s time to take a step back to see how they have performed and what type of maintenance strategies have been used.

Maintaining permeable paver systems can be successful with the right tools and approach. A functioning LID paver system is critical to sustain water quality benefits, maintain detention and retention of water on site and helps to reduce undesirable aesthetic qualities from clogged, nonfunctional systems.

This free presentation is available for designers, engineers, contractors, home builders, developers, landscapers/landscape maintenance crews, Government public works crews, property owners, municipal and county personnel, professionals with licensure, and is open to the general public.

This online workshop is funded in part through a Green Infrastructure grant program with the US EPA, Arkansas Department of Agriculture – Natural Resources Division, and the Beaver Watershed Alliance.
