The Maine Stormwater Conference is going virtual this year by hosting a series of webinars in October 2021. The series will consist of 4 webinars held every Thursday in October.

PDHs are anticipated for engineers, Envirocert certifications, planners, lawyers, and code enforcement officers.

Green Infrastructure and Low Impact Development

October 7th | 12:30-2pm
Green Infrastructure (GI) and Low Impact Development (LID) are becoming common requirements for new development. This webinar will take a look into the difference between GI and LID and how these differences pertain to Chapter 500 of the Maine Stormwater Management Law and Chapter 10 of the Maine Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual definitions. Case studies will be presented that examine the effectiveness of GI designs for flood control under multiple rain events with varying length and severity, different applications for GI, and emerging technology for reducing chlorides.
