Stormwaters: From waste to resource!

Managing stormwater run-off is a growing challenge for many municipalities around the Baltic Sea region due to stormwater pollution, flooding and other effects imposing serious impacts on water quality, public health and local environments. At the same time, urban areas are densifying and land is more covered with sealed surfaces. These pressures are forcing planners and storm water specialists to develop cost-effective and holistic strategies dealing with greater volume and velocity of storm water.
