Philadelphia Water Department

Driving Equitable Participation in Green Stormwater

As part of Philadelphia’s Green City, Clean Waters program Philadelphia Water Department incentivizes landowners within the combined sewer area to install green infrastructure on their properties. Projects can include stormwater management practices such as bioswales, rain gardens, tree trenches, and more.
