1 Urban Revitalization using Green Infrastructure and Conservation Planning Ted Brown and Scott Whalen Biohabitats, Inc. and WK Dickson June 17, 2015
2 Outline Sustainability/Resiliency Whole Systems, Biodiversity, Water Emerging Issues Regenerative Design - the Green/Living Infrastructure Approach Case Studies Project examples Town Creek Culvert Linda Lake RiverBend Master Plan, BOA, and Shoreline Restoration Buffalo, NY Washington Avenue Green Park Philadelphia, PA Baltimore Inner Harbor Floating Wetlands and Pilot Projects Baltimore, MD
3 Climate Change Habitat Fragmentation Invasive Species Air/Water Pollution Biodiversity Loss 6th Great Extinction? - E.O. Wilson
4 Biodiversity the sum of an area s genes, species, and ecosystems Richness = Stability = Resiliency
5 Sustainability Whole systems Triple bottom line People culture Interactions Educational Relationships Faith Planet ecology Productive soils Clean air Fresh water Biodiversity Climate regulation Prosperity economy Prosperity Equality Security
6 Ecosystem Services Provisioning services food (including seafood and game), crops, wild foods, and spices and medicines water energy (hydropower, biomass fuels) carbon sequestration and climate regulation Regulating services waste decomposition and detoxification purification of water and air crop pollination Landscape Ecology Supporting services Conservation Biology Cultural services pest and disease control nutrient dispersal and cycling seed dispersal primary production cultural, intellectual and spiritual inspiration recreational experiences (including ecotourism)
7 Benefits of implementation 50% Green Infrastructure Approach to limit CSO events, Monetized over 40 years Recreational Use and Value $520 million Enhanced Aesthetics $575 million (improved property values residential only) Water Quality and Aquatic Habitat Enhancement Wetland Enhancement and Creation Poverty Reduction (Green Jobs) Energy Use and related emissions Air Quality Pollutant removal $330 million (total willingness to pay) $1.6 million $125 million (avoided costs of social services linked to added jobs) $34 million energy savings, $21 million for reduced CO 2, $46 million for reduced net damages from SO x and NO x $130 million TOTAL BENEFITS $1.7 billion in external benefits *Summary does not include the external costs associated with the 30 tunnel approach.

9 Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure Envision TM Rating System
10 Envision Structure
11 Potential SITES credits with Environmental Site Design Manage stormwater onsite Protect and enhance onsite water resources Design rainwater features to provide landscape amenity Use native plants Preserve/restore plant communities native to ecoregion Use vegetation to minimize building heating/cooling requ. Reduce heat island effects Provide views of vegetation and quiet outdoor spaces Reduce outdoor energy consumption for landscape and exterior operations Innovation in site design
12 Water Supply Lack of coherent policy for collecting, conserving and using fresh water Cheap and plentiful no more? Ongoing water crisis in many areas Implications for food and disease
13 The Problems with Stormwater Runoff
14 Defining Green Infrastructure Green infrastructure is strategically planned and managed networks of natural lands, working landscapes and other open spaces that conserve ecosystem values and functions and provide associated benefits to human populations. - Conservation Fund (broad scale, landscape planning ) Green infrastructure is an approach to wet weather management that is costeffective, sustainable, and environmentally friendly. Green Infrastructure management approaches and technologies infiltrate, evapotranspire, capture and reuse stormwater to maintain or restore natural hydrologies. -US EPA (site scale, stormwater management )
15 The Regenerative Design Approach A design paradigm where human activities are deeply integrated with living systems, continuously building biological diversity, resilience and community spirit. Copyright Biohabitats
