GI#41 Revised 5/25/2018

At this site, located in the Fairview neighborhood, a 600

gallon rainwater harvesting cistern has been installed to

collect the stormwater runoff from the rooftop of the St.

Joan of Arch Church building. The cistern has been fitted

with an internal pump and the collected rainwater is used

to water the existing community vegetable and fruit

garden beds. Overflow from the cistern is discharged to

lawn areas. This installation helps 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 2,500 gallons of stormwater per year. This project was

completed in September 2015.
