Low Impact Development (LID) Approaches in Sustainable Stormwater Management

Article Preview

Abstract:

Low Impact Development (LID), with a core conception of maintaining urban hydrological recycle through source control, is an approach to land development that works with nature to manage stormwater as close to its source as possible. This paper summarized the concept, principle, development and research status of LID, analysed the LID approaches in High Point Community in the USA, aiming to forward experience of sustainable stormwater management.
