Lakeside Stormwater Project: Results
Stormwater runoff data were collected for Ivanhoe and Kingston streets during 2008. Rain events of 1 to 1.5 inches generated hundreds of thousands of gallons of runoff from each 2-block area. The streets responded to the rain events in a relatively similar manner.
