Description
As part of the Centennial Brook Flow Restoration Plan, a project was identified to retrofit an existing stormwater pond located on private property and divert runoff from a portion of Williston Road and East Terrace into the upgraded stormwater treatment practice.
Under current conditions, the existing stormwater treatment practice is not designed to modern standards and does not maximize phosphorus removal for the area draining to it. Additionally, the section of Williston Road and East Terrace in this area discharges directly to the stream with no treatment. By working together through a public-private partnership with UVM and Burlington, the untreated runoff can be routed to the upgraded pond, where phosphorus removal can be achieved and stream channel flows reduced.
