Course Title: Low Impact Development

Delivery Method: Live

Course Description: This 6.5 hour live lecture presentation examines the principles of stormwater low impact development, hydrology considerations for low-impact development, site planning, structural best management plans, low impact development economics, construction and maintenance.

Learning Objectives:

Learning Objective 1:
Learners will be able to discuss environmental and water quality threats in urban areas, identify the drawbacks of conventional approaches to address stormwater, and explain the principles and benefits of low impact development (LID) strategies.

Learning Objective 2:
Learners will be able to explain the science of the water cycle and site hydrology, as a foundation to understanding and implementing the objectives of low impact development and treating stormwater runoff as intended by nature.

Learning Objective 3:
Learners will be able to identify and explain the objectives and applications of structural best management practices, including bioretention systems, dry swales, permeable pavement, infiltration basins, rain barrels, and green roofs.

Learning Objective 4:
Learners will be able to describe the process of low impact development site planning and discuss the economics, construction and maintenance considerations of low impact development projects.
