Abstract
The Center for Neighborhood Technology (CNT) and Hey & Associates of Chicago monitored and documented the performance of stormwater best management practices (BMPs) in the Chicago area during 2009 and 2010. There were three components to the project: 1) conduct real-time monitoring on a bioswale and two sections of permeable concrete; 2) perform infiltration testing for 15 rain gardens, three of which were used for additional synthetic drawdown testing, and 3) develop and implement an inventory of green infrastructure features througghout the six-county Chicago Region.
