Linking Stormwater Management and Stream Rehabilitation (USGS, 2010)
Description: Faith Fitzpatrick (U.S. Geological Survey), Tom Slawski (Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission), and Dave Fowler (Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District) talk about how stormwater management allows removal of cement lined channels and fosters stream rehabilitation for the highly urban Underwood Creek. Flood mitigation and rehabilitation are accomplished at the same time. Habitat improvements consider both aquatic and riparian species.
