I have been able to plan and work with the city of DC to improve the land surrounding my home whereby it would add to the health of the local water shed.
The city has a program entitled RiverSmart which offers homeowners support with the placement of rain barrels, shade trees, landscaping and pavers all intended to reduce the amount of water run off entering the sewer system. So far they have placed a rain barrel which collects rain from the roof and provides an additional water source for the garden. Come fall the same program is scheduled to add shades trees and new purvious pavers to the property for a nominal copay.
