Storm Water Management Seminar – 7 October 2004

On 7 October 2004, Cobblestone Construction’s Managing Director, Norm Zachary, attended a two-day seminar on storm water management at construction sites, held by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Managing storm water is very important to Cobblestone Construction. One of the key reasons to install interlocking pavers over concrete and asphalt, for example, is the benefit to urban storm water management. Being more permeable, pavers allow water to filter into the land; reducing runoff, pollution, and flood risk.

Norm said of the workshop: “It was a very useful session and I look forward to introducing the EPA’s techniques and best management practices into our sites in the future.”
