The UNH Stormwater Center (UNHSC) is dedicated to the protection of water resources through effective stormwater management.


Historic Dover Water Works sand filter circa 1908, site of future Berry Brook stream restoration and headwaters reconstruction.


Municipal bioretention installed August 2010 at Pettee Brook Lane in Durham, NH, a collaboration of the USEPA, Town of Durham, and the UNHSC. This bioretention has been optimized for phosphorous and nitrogen removal.


Bioretention installed June 2010 at the Horne Street Elementary School in partnership with the City of Dover, NHDES, and UNHSC.


Low Cost Bioretention Retrofit, Installed 2009 on UNH Durham Campus. This project was very inexpensive due to the extensive use of existing drainage infrastructure. It is an example of low cost retrofit opportunities.
