Description

The Arboretum Stream Restoration Project has provided a regional case project to be studied, observed, and learned from by stormwater professionals and JMU and EMU students in 2015, and beyond as the project matures. It has also been a learning opportunity for anyone involved in the Arboretum (students, board members, volunteers, friends-of, visitors, etc.) to watch, read, and volunteer learning more about why the stream project is so important for water quality, stream and water table health, and a clean Chesapeake Bay.
