  2. A demonstration of the ubiquitous role of water as both a productive and destructive force

  3. Goals Resiliency and Stormwater Management Soften shoreline (4,955 feet)

  4. Goals Resiliency and Stormwater Management Soften shoreline (4,955 feet) Attenuate wave action (at height of 5 feet above high tide)

  5. Goals Resiliency and Stormwater Management Soften shoreline (4,955 feet) Attenuate wave action (at height of 5 feet above high tide) Improve stormwater management (capture 364,502.425 gals water)

  6. Goals Resiliency and Stormwater Management Soften shoreline (4,955 feet) Attenuate wave action (at height of 5 feet above high tide) Improve stormwater management (capture 364,502.425 gals water) Improve water quality (1 acre of oyster reef and 1 acre of seaweed)

  21. Oyster Reef One adult oyster can filter 20-50 gallons of water a day. Ranges for a healthy oyster reef are between 400-1000 oysters per square meter. At 400 oysters per square meter our acre of oyster reef will filter 32,376,000-80,940,000 gallons of water a day.

  22. Seaweed Farm ◦ Creates habitat for marine life ◦ Filters water (nitrogen and phosphorus mainly) ◦ Acts as a carbon sink (helps counteract ocean acidification) ◦ Serves as an educational resource for visitors ◦ Fast growing resource: Can grow 9-12 feet in 3 months (about 18% per day) ◦ Nutritious to eat and great for compost (some tastes like bacon!)

  25. Existing Stormwater Flow Total Site Area = 556,150 Sq/Ft 1.2 in rainfall= 414,331 gal on site 3 in rainfall = 1,052,591 gal on site

  26. Proposed Interventions

  27. Stormwater with Interventions 3 in rainfall = 23,840 gal captured by 3 in rainfall = 148,550 gal captured secondary blue roof by blue roof 1.2 in rainfall = 9,536 gal captured by 1.2 in rainfall = 51,419 gal captured secondary blue roof by blue roof Green roof: 156,730 gal capacity

  28. Area Draining into Swales (not captured by roof systems): 350,580 Sq/Ft Gallons Draining towards Swales: 1.2” Rain Event: 261,182 Gallons 3” Rain Event: 652,955.25 Gallons Swale Retention Space: 350,580 Sq/Ft Swale Retention Capacity: 55,383 Gallons During 1.2” Rain Event: Swales can retain about 20% During a 3” Rain Event: Swales can retain about 8%
