Workshop: Advanced LID Design: Bioretention Facilities

2018/03/20 8:30 AM - 2018/03/20 4:30 PM
Pearson Convention Centre, 2638 Steeles Avenue, Brampton, ON, Canada

This event is one of the pre-TRIECA conference workshops. Water management practitioners need to be familiar with the ‘ins and outs’of bioretention design including sizing and siting, inlet and outlet design, material specification, construction planning, as well as the associated lifecycle inspection and maintenance requirements that should be considered during the design process.

    Developed by Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority, Toronto and Region Conservation, and Credit Valley Conservation, the Low Impact Development (LID) Treatment Train Tool (TTT) is an exciting new open-source tool created to help developers, consultants, municipalities and landowners better understand, plan and implement sustainable stormwater practices. The tool can be used right from the conceptual-level planning stage of site development and retrofits for iterative design of LID placement and sizing. This webinar is intended for stormwater management practitioners, developers, LID designers, CA staff, water resources engineers, municipal staff, landscape architects and planners.
