Description
Hospice of Washington County is constructing a new building project on their existing property and incorporating water quality features. The site of the old building will be retrofitted with two bioretention cells to mitigate water runoff, filter surface water, and control its release into the local storm sewers. The overall project will also use native plantings and seeding in the bioretention cells and building landscaping. The disturbed areas of the property will use compost, topsoil and tillage to improve soil conditions and reduce nutrient runoff into Crooked/Long Creeks.
