LEED in Landscape Architecture 14 years, 10 months agoAnyone have a good detail/case study for using planting islands as small stormwater catchment areas? This is for the northeast, and the parking lot will most likely have standard curbs, but if there’s another idea… Just getting started on the project, but excited about the possibilities. Thanks!

LEED in Landscape Architecture 14 years, 11 months agoI also got this information from GBCI: If you area a LEED AP and you choose a specialty – there is no harm in keeping your enrollment and that if you do not report any continuing education hours at the end of the 2 years your LEED AP with Specialty credential will expire, however you will remain a LEED AP without specialty.

LEED in Landscape Architecture 14 years, 12 months agoPotentially greywater could be treated in a bioswale or series of detention ponds, but in California, this system is impossible to permit (Does anyone know of any States who allow this?). However, you can treat stormwater in that method.

LEED in Landscape Architecture 14 years, 12 months agohow about grey water treating with wetlands/ aerobic system? there is need for open bond rite? instead using in sewage water treatment along with chemicals?

LEED in Landscape Architecture 14 years, 12 months agoThere are strict standards for greywater irrigation – it should not come in contact with people – therefore it is subsurface and also its application is dependent on soil percolation rate, meaning it should not pond to the surface. Not to say with all the rules it is not possible. More potable water is used irrigating landscapes than for basic…[Read more]

LEED in Landscape Architecture 14 years, 12 months agoI always thought that greywater has too many pathogens to be safely used for irrigation anywhere people would come in contact with it. Not true?
