Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church

Six rain gardens and one infiltration trench filters runoff from the church parking lot.

Presentation Catholic Church is one of 12 projects funded in part by a Clean Water Fund grant to manage rainwater runoff at churches with large amounts of impervious surfaces. The goal of this project was to install six rain gardens and one infiltration trench that intercept and filter runoff from the church parking lot. This reduces the volume of polluted rainwater draining into Wakefield Lake.
