    LANDSCAPING/GARDENING/ECOLOGY No matter where you live in New Hampshire, the actions you take in your landscape can have far-reaching effects on water quality. Why? Because we are all connected to the water cycle and we all live in a watershed. A watershed is the LANDSCAPING land area that drains into a surface water body such as a lake, river, wetland or coastal estuary. at the Water’sAN ECOLOGICAL APPROACHEdge LANDSCAPING Landscaping at the Water’s Edge is a valuable resource for anyone concerned with the impact of his or her actions on the environment. This book brings together the collective expertise of many UNH Cooperative Extension specialists and educators and an independent landscape designer. Unlike many garden design books that are full of glitz and glamour but sorely lacking in substance, this affordable book addresses important ecological issues and empowers readers by giving an array of workable at the Water’s Edge solutions for real-world situations. ~Robin Sweetser, Concord Monitor columnist, garden writer for Old Farmer’s Almanac, and NH Home Magazine Landscaping at the Water’s Edge provides hands-on tools that teach us about positive change. It’s an excellent resource for the gardener, the professional landscaper, designer, and landscape architect—to learn how to better dovetail our landscapes with those of nature. ~Jon Batson, President, NH Landscape Association Pictured here are the : A major river watersheds in N ECOLOGICAL APPROACH New Hampshire. This guide explains how our landscaping choices impact surface and ground waters and demonstrates how, with simple observation, ecologically based design, and low impact maintenance practices, you can protect, and even improve, the quality of our water resources.

This report was prepared based on a site visit carried out on August 17, 2020 by Laurent Gareau and Nicolas Pepin of Golder Associates Ltd (Golder), Morgan Lypka and Jonathan Charland of Teck Resources Limited (Teck, Owner) as well as on a review of available data representative of conditions over the period since the previous annual TSFAI. Golder Associates are the original designer of the facility and have been the provider of the Engineer of Record (EOR) since 2017. Golder performed an inspection in 2009, and then has performed annual inspections of the facilities since 2014. Laurent Gareau assumed the role of EOR for the Louvicourt tailings facility in 2018. The objective of the site visit component of a TSFAI for any such facility is to observe the physical condition of the structures of the facility and look for any signs of changing geotechnical performance such as settlement, bulging, cracking, erosion, seepage and piping.

Storm drain marking is an educational program designed to inform citizens about the hazards of dumping pollutants into storm drains. The placards remind people that storm drains flow untreated, directly into local streams and creeks. Ashland’s storm drains are NOT connected to the sewage treatment plant. By placing storm drain markers, you can take an active roll in preventing pollution in your neighborhood. Volunteers may also distribute door hangers, informing citizens about the proper disposal of chemicals that could harm wildlife and pollute waterways. Storm drain marking helps build community and mobilize grass roots environmental protection. Marking also helps educate your neighbors about the importance of watershed protection. If you are interested, you can become a neighborhood leader for your own Storm Drain Stomp event.

  • Chapter 1 Frequently Asked Questions
    SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT MANUAL SEPTEMBER 22, 2008 EDITION Chapter 1 Frequently Asked Questions 1.1 Applicability The implementation of BMPs applies to all businesses, residences and public agencies in Tacoma. 1.2 Pollutants of Concern The City is required to show progress in eliminating virtually all non-stormwater discharges to the storm drainage system. Only uncontaminated stormwater may be discharged to the City of Tacoma storm drainage system. Illicit discharges, intentional or unintentional, are not allowed and polluters may be subject to state and federal penalties. It is the property owner’s responsibility to keep pollutants from leaving a property and entering the City storm drainage system. Pollutants can be placed into several broad categories, as listed below. 1.2.1 pH The pH value of a substance is a relative measure of whether it is acidic or basic. Most aquatic species can only survive in neutral conditions. Sources that can contribute to a change in pH of stormwater and waterbodies include cement in concrete pouring, paving, and recycling operations; solutions from metal plating; chemicals from printing businesses and other industrial processes; and household cleaners such as bleaches and deck washes. 1.2.2 Total Suspended Solids This represents particulate solids such as eroded soil, heavy metal precipitates, and biological solids which can cause sedimentation in streams and turbidity in receiving surface waters. Sediments can destroy the desired habitat for fish and can impact drinking water supplies. Sediment may be carried to streams, lakes, or Puget Sound where they may be toxic to aquatic life and destroy habitat. 1.2.3 Oils and Greases Oils and greases can be either petroleum-based or food-related sources.

  • Allen County Storm Drain Marking Guide022510
    The Allen County Surveyor’s Office has established a storm drain marking program to involve and educate the community of the harms of dumping pollutants down the storm drains. The following guidelines are provided to assist individuals, groups or organizations in planning, implementing, and preparing a successful storm drain marking event and to provide information on what citizens can do to prevent or reduce pollution that enters our waterways through storm drains. What is a Storm Drain? A storm drain is a network of underground pipes designed to control flooding by transporting stormwater from urban areas to a waterbody. The storm drain marking program involves marking storm drain inlets. The following are typical examples of storm inlets. What is Storm Drain Marking? Storm drain marking is labeling a storm drain inlet with a pre-printed marker, tile, sticker, or stencil that reads “ Dump No Waste - Drains to River ”, "Drains to Stream ”, or a similar written message that specifies the waterbody to which the storm drain inlet drains. Allen County has chosen a vinyl marker that comes in circular or rectangular form that is applied to the inlet with an adhesive or tie straps depending on the type of inlet being marked. Why Should We Mark Storm Drains? • Storm drain marking informs others about the street-to-river connection. Allen County 1 Storm Drain Marking Guide Surveyor’s Office • Many people may not realize that water flowing into storm drains or any material that is dumped or washes into the storm drains is not treated before it empties into a river, stream, or pond.

    Contact: Laura B. Dunn [email protected] (202)638-5944, Ext 9 AAAFoundation.org FACT SHEET The Prevalence of Motor Vehicle Crashes Involving Road Debris, United States, 2011-2014 Background • Previous research by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety found that debris deposited on the roadway by motor vehicles contributed to an estimated 25,000 crashes which resulted in 81-90 deaths in 2001 Objective • The objective of this study was to provide updated information about the prevalence of motor vehicle crashes in the United States involving road debris Methods • Road debris is defined in the current study as debris from any source, including by not limited to vehicles, that can pose a significant safety hazard (animals in the road, trees that fell onto vehicles, debris caused by a previous crash, and construction-related materials in active work zones were not counted as debris) • A crash was considered to have been debris-related if it involved a vehicle that: o Struck or was struck by an object that fell from another vehicle o Struck a non-fixed object in the travel lane of the roadway o Attempted to avoid a non-fixed object in the travel lane of the roadway and subsequently crashed • Data from crashes reported in three publicly-available databases from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (years 2011 – 2014) were examined o A sample of in-depth crash investigations was examined to identify the prevalence of debris involvement in the types of crashes listed above o Results of the in-depth case examination were used
