On Friday August 5, the UNL Stormwater Team will be sponsoring a tour of some of Lincoln's Stormwater Best Management Practices. This will be a great opportunity to see how people across the city are implementing porous pavements, rain gardens, bioretention gardens, rainwater harvesting systems, and green roofs!
The tour will begin at 8:30 am at the Lower Platte South NRD - 3125 Portia Street in Lincoln. Registration is $15 per person and includes a chartered bus, box lunch, drinks, and handouts. For more information, contact Katie Pekarek at (402) 643-2981 or kpekarek2@unl.edu.

Using an inlet filter is a good way to control stormwater flow and help prevent erosion.
