Installation of permeable interlocking concrete pavers at Hood House, University of New Hampshire, taken in Summer of 2010


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.


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.
