Stormwater Control = Low impact development.

Project Name: St. Catharines – 16 Melbourne Housing Development. GreenStorm Stormwater Control System

Client: Sphere Development

Location: St. Catharines

Project Overview: This was a housing Development project that involved 4 blocks of stacked townhouses, the infrastructure to service it complete with parking amenities as well as an extensive SWM plan for effective stormwater control.

Challenge: In order to provide this large number of homes in this efficient area and not cause stress to the existing stormwater control services already in place, an extensive and innovative SWM plan had to be implemented.

The Solution: Devron supplied the modular and adaptable, GreenStorm system as a 1-layer 88m3 stormwater storage tank. This allowed for controllable management practices for storm events and for this development to take place while minimizing impact. The surrounding storm water infrastructure will never be overburdened by the rainwater collected on this hardscape area. the GreenStorm tank acts as a waiting area to hold the water and slowly release it as the existing system is able to take it.
