Rutland plans to use distributed green stormwater infrastructure as a strategy to achieve additional reductions in impervious surface area. In addition, the stormwater management plant contemplates “tabling [at] farmers markets with information on rain barrels or rain gardens, leading tours of the Town’s green infrastructure sites with the assistance of the Rutland green infrastructure bike tour map developed in 2017, teaching residents how to build, install, and maintain a rain barrel, and coordinating with youth groups to do storm drain stenciling.”
