The Sustainable Sites Initiative 15 years, 9 months agoMy civil engineer handed me a brochure on the Filterra Bioretention System which appears to be a vault, filled with gravel, sand and a little peat moss that takes in and filters storm water. The vault is topped with a tree grate where you plant a plant from the recommended list provided by Filterra. Has anyone used this system? They recommend that…[Read more]

The Sustainable Sites Initiative 15 years, 10 months agoI agree with Heather about building a track record of using the SSI. It is through application in the real world that tools like the SSI show their strengths and value.

The Sustainable Sites Initiative 15 years, 10 months agoI am anxious to see the outcome of the pilot projects. I think the real world application and testing of Sites is of the upmost importance and we will learn a great deal from this process.

The Sustainable Sites Initiative 15 years, 10 months agoHi Heather! You and I have had many past conversations when you were in the trenches with SSI. So what are your current thoughts from your new perspective relative to what needs to happen to keep the SSI momentum going? Is practical application the key….or are there other issues that are just as critical?
You’ve been a great resource…..hope…[Read more]

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 15 years, 10 months agoThe legislator happens to be a brick mason. I heard that only 30 percent of the people in the Washington legislature have college degrees. This might say something about their lack of support for teachers, colleges and universities.

L.A.R.E. – ANYTHING GOES 15 years, 10 months agoIn order to pass the new practice act in Washington, we had to capitulate to a legislator who said he “is an apprentice kind of guy”. So now the state LA Board is drawing up rules for the act’s implementation. One of the areas being addressed is this aspect of the legislation. As it stands now, the law gives a big boost to kids of licensed…[Read more]

Stormwater 16 years agoWell said Mark, our proffesion is so variable that it makes it easy for others to put us in a box on one side of it which I find to be simply ‘lanscaping’. We need to work together as a profession to be “armed with facts and calculations” to give creditability to the profession across the board.
Happy Thanksgiving!
