Low Impact Development (LID) has several advantages over traditional stormwater management approaches. Since impervious pavement is the main source of stormwater runoff, LID strategies recommend permeable paving for hard surfaces. The course discusses LID, its goals and principles, and how they are achieved. It provides an overview of permeable pavements, and more particularly, plastic permeable grid paver systems and how they support LID goals.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Discuss the need for Low Impact Development, its goals, and the environmental effects of LID Best Management Practices.
  • Explain how the sub-base water detention feature of plastic permeable grid paver systems greatly reduces the amount of pollutants entering groundwater, protecting humans, wildlife, and the natural environment.
  • Compare various permeable pavements in terms of cost, and long-term performance related to infiltration rates.
  • Use project examples to illustrate how plastic permeable grid paver systems can be used to achieve LID goals.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
