History:
Type of Runoff Managed:
This rain garden manages runoff from the Ethicon parking lot before it is sent down the grass towards a near-by stream.
Installation:
Ethicon and Rutgers Cooperative Extension Water Resources Program faculty and
staff were present for the installation of this rain garden installation. The rain garden
was designed to be 200 square feet and required two curb cuts. One cut was
needed to allow water to enter the rain garden and the second to route overflow
from large storms into the existing curb/gutter system.
