Site ImprovementsCreating truly green, sustainable buildings requires more than designing a green building itself. It requires careful site selection and design considerations. Low Impact Development (LID) is an innovative, ecosystem-based approach to land development and stormwater management, limiting surface water runoff and pollutant generation from a development site. The application of LID allows a developed site to more closely mimic the conditions found on an undisturbed site. In addition, the use of compost helps restore soil conditions to pre-development conditions.
