1 KDHE Clean Water Neighbor Program Kansas State University, Seaton Hall Green Roof Demonstration Project The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) has provided financial assistance to this project through USEPA Section 319 Nonpoint Source Pollution Control Grant #C (KDHE Funding Codes ). Project Description: This project shows how stormwater can be temporarily captured in rooftop growing medium (living roof soils) and the associated vegetated system (sedums and native herbaceous grasses and forbs). Installation of this living roof was initiated on May 8, 2012 by K-State faculty, staff and students, after installation/maintenance training by LiveRoof grower Teresa Nelson of RoofTop Sedums (Davenport, Iowa). LiveRoof green roof modules (three different heights 2-1/2, 4-1/4 & 6 ), Permaloc aluminum edging, and RoofStone pavers, and American Hydrotech, Inc. components (including a drainage layer and approximately five inches of lightweight integrated soil/grow media sitting above a layer of filter fabric) were installed along with two-inch concrete pavers (set atop Owens Corning Foamular insulation). This new west-facing green roof, above two conditioned offices, surrounded on three sides by building mass, and open on the street side (17 th Street or Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd.) employs green roof trays with an internal area using integrated soil left over from the upper green roof project. Precipitation is evapo-transpired through the vegetation on this small rooftop thus reducing in a small but important way downstream flooding, streambank erosion, and urban stormwater pollutants and heat loads. Sedums and native species (planted on 5/11 & 5/16) will be monitored over time on this semi-shaded rooftop. Another living roof above the third-floor breezeway an integrated (semi-intensive) green roof, and was installed in May Ongoing monitoring of the upper green roof provided useful for the lower green roof project as well as other green roof designs at K-State (especially for K-State s Memorial Stadium).
