Summit Middle School Demonstration Rain Garden
Overview
Type of Runoff Managed:
This rain garden manages stormwater runoff from the roof of the Summit Middle School via a downspout.
Installation:
Summit Middle School students, members of the Summit Middle School Environmental Action Club, Master Gardeners of Union County, and Rutgers Cooperative Extension faculty and staff assisted in the installation of the Summit Middle School rain garden in April 2009. After using a backhoe to excavate the 150 square foot area, sand was added and mixed with the native soil. Additionally, the eixsting downspout had been cut and adjusted to direct the runoff into the rain garden.
Maintenance:
The Summit Middle School rain garden is maintained by the Master Gardeners of Union County and the Summit Middle School Environmental Action Club.
