What we do <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Located at the WSU Puyallup Research & Extension Center, the Low Impact Development (LID) program is fundamentally an Extension program that leans heavily on research to develop education and outreach materials for a broad audience, including school kids, elected officials, and fellow scientists. We collaborate with cities, counties, regulatory agencies, and corporations to develop more efficient and resilient stormwater management systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Managing stormwater isn’t just about controlling where the water goes; its fate and transport are intrinsically linked to the ecosystems and communities surrounding stormwater’s path from ridge to ocean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We aim to influence stormwater management decisions to serve traditionally under-resourced Black and Indigenous communities, people of color, lower-income groups, and the ecosystems they live within.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
