Do you enjoy talking about stormwater drainage? Do you constantly think about where water goes after it rains? I am requesting your assistance in a research study by sharing your thoughts and perceptions on the cultural and technical sustainability of green stormwater infrastructure.

This research centers on the current state of stormwater management professionals' perception of the effectiveness of long-term maintenance and operations of green infrastructure. I am interested in your experience and opinions on these systems. The goal is to identify gaps between existing literature and everyday application by practitioners. Your input and assistance garnering responses will help us understand the cultural and technical elements that impact stormwater infrastructure's long-term viability and success.

This survey is anticipated to take 12-15 minutes.
