Participants learned how the recently installed West Grove Borough rain garden was planned, funded, and implemented to help improve the water quality of the White Clay Creek. The design, engineering, and construction processes were discussed first-hand by Rutgers University, West Grove Borough Public Works Department and staff, and the White Clay Creek watershed manager.<\/p>\n<p>The district held the workshop in-person with masks required. They also made the workshop available virtually by broadcasting live and recording it. The first part of the in-person workshop was held in a fire hall with the door open. The second portion was held outside at the site of the new rain garden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pacd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/epa_logo-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19682\" width=\"107\" height=\"117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pacd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/epa_logo-2.jpg 336w, https:\/\/pacd.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/epa_logo-2-275x300.jpg 275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 107px) 100vw, 107px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Financial and other support for this project is provided by the Pennsylvania Association of Conservation Districts, Inc. through a grant from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection under Section 319 of the Clean Water Act, administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On October 1, 2020, the Chester County Conservation District held a Green Stormwater Infrastructure for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems training.
