Stormwater retrofitting is the art and science of inserting stormwater treatment into places where it does not exist or is currently inadequate. Increasingly we stormwater retrofitting serves as a critical tool for meeting TMDL and watershed goals, with an emerging link between retrofitting and MS4 permits. But can we retrofit the world? Well, at least some of it. This webcast – part I of a two-part retrofit webcast mini-series -- will broaden your perspective about retrofitting. The webcast will introduce a retrofitting practice hierarchy and describe how to find, prioritize, and build the most effective retrofits. The webcast will also explore how much land area in a watershed can feasibly be retrofitted and at what cost. This information is based on dozens of retrofit studies conducted by the Center and others in urban, suburban, and rural watersheds.
