Underground infrastructure continues south of Michigan Avenue

The final catch basins in the east parking lot will be installed today. Did you know that the design criteria for this project is to collect, store and clean the storm water before it is dumped into the Red Cedar River? The system’s capacity can handle slightly over a 2 inch storm in a 48 hour time period. This design will provide cleaner stormwater runoff as well as mitigate some of the current flooding problems in the Frandor area.
