LandStudies, Inc. and its partners recently conducted a tour of Lititz Run Watershed Restoration Projects in Lancaster County to illustrate the value of natural restoration project designs at different stages of installation and development.
LandStudies pioneered the concept of Floodplain Restoration techniques which gets at the root many erosion and sedimentation and nutrient runoff problems. These techniques not only improve water quality and effectively deal with stormwater management issues, but offer a source nutrient and other credits for sale to wastewater plants and developers.
LandStudies organizes customized tours like this for organizations interested in effective watershed restoration projects. Contact Mark Gutshall by sending email to: mark@LandStudies.com or visit the Landstudies, Inc. website.
