Russian River Low Impact Development Demonstration Project at Ukiah High School
Planning/Design
MCRCD partnered with Ukiah Unified School District to install 15,959 square feet of rain gardens and bioretention basins and teach stormwater pollution prevention at Ukiah High School. Collectively, the project captures and cleans 4.5 million gallons of stormwater per year. The project included curricular tie-ins and educational opportunities for the students, including water quality data collection, peer-to-peer education and the development of interpretive signs. The project was recognized in a study by the University of Southern California as one of 4 DROPS projects that were “clear outliers with substantially greater benefit returns than other other projects with similar funding."
