Water Quality Scorecard
RJN encourages the implementation of green infrastructure, such as rain gardens and pervious pavement among others. We can provide assistance in completing the EPA Water Quality Scorecard to help identify impediments to installation of green infrastructure.
- Along with a review of the stormwater and zoning ordinances, subdivision codes, street standards, and parking requirements will be reviewed.
- Additional planning elements will be reviewed such as building setback, riparian zones, and open space or natural resource plans.
- We have performed similar reviews for 49 communities, including cities, villages, and counties.
- The RJN team includes a LEED certified engineer and Erosion and Sediment Control specialist to assist with reviews.
- We will evaluate the Water Quality Scorecard and develop a plan to implement changes that will reduce barriers for installing green infrastructure solutions.
