Green Infrastructure Implementation

by Water Environment Federation

Green Infrastructure Implementation provides actionable information that promotes the implementation of green infrastructure. Unlike most publications, which focus on technical design of individual green elements, this book tackles topics that relate directly to the ability to implement green infrastructure. The collection of proposed programmatic and planning topics is unique in current literature. This text helps identify obstacles and guidance in possible approaches to overcoming them at the programmatic level; provide clear and actionable suggestions as to the selection and planning of green infrastructure at different scales; and help identify considerations for implementation based on type of practice and specific geographic considerations. Each topic includes an assessment of barriers and potential challenges and includes case studies that show how these barriers can be addressed.
