GI#33 Revised 5/25/2018

At this site, located in the Whitman Park neighborhood, the

deteriorating sidewalks have been removed and replaced

with permeable surfaces that promote groundwater

recharge. A pervious concrete sidewalk has been installed

along with a 490 square foot stormwater planter that is

designed to intercept, treat, and filter the stormwater runoff

from a portion of Copewood Street. The green infrastructure practices installed at this site

complement the existing rain garden and trees installed at the site in 2012. Overflow from the

planter discharges to the existing curb and gutter and flow to the sewer system. The porous

pavement and stormwater planters installed here help to mitigate nuisance flooding in the area

and reduces nonpoint source pollution and stormwater that would otherwise discharge into the

City of Camden's combined sewer system. This site captures 121,774 gallons of stormwater per

year. This project was completed in September 2015.
