Historically, it was felt “dilution is the solution to pollution”. It was thought that moving excess water to the nearest body of water would take care of pollutants. Stormwater BMPs (Best Management Practices) is a term used to describe a type of water pollution control. Stormwater BMPs are techniques, measures, or structural controls used to manage and improve the quality of stormwater runoff. The goal is to reduce or eliminate the contaminants collected by stormwater as it moves into streams and rivers. As an early innovator, Native Landscape Solutions, Inc. is using native plants to assist this process.
