Storm drain systems play a critical role in managing rainwater runoff and preventing flooding in urban areas. In recent years, advancements in technology have led to the development of innovative storm drain solutions that improve efficiency, sustainability, and resilience. In this blog post, we’ll explore some of the latest technologies revolutionizing storm drain systems and their impact on rainwater management.

SMART DRAINAGE SYSTEMS:

Modern storm drain systems are increasingly integrating smart technologies to enhance performance and functionality. Smart drainage systems utilize sensors, data analytics, and real-time monitoring to detect water levels, predict storm events, and optimize drainage operations. These systems enable proactive management of rainwater, allowing authorities to respond promptly to changing conditions and mitigate flood risks.

PERMEABLE PAVEMENT:

One of the innovative approaches to stormwater management is the use of permeable pavement in urban landscapes. Permeable pavements allow rainwater to infiltrate through the surface, reducing runoff and replenishing groundwater resources. These pavements are designed to withstand heavy traffic loads while promoting sustainable drainage and minimizing the burden on conventional storm drain systems.

GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE:

Green infrastructure practices such as green roofs, bioswales, and rain gardens are gaining popularity as effective stormwater management solutions. These nature-based approaches mimic natural hydrological processes, intercepting and absorbing rainwater before it enters storm drains. Green infrastructure not only reduces runoff but also enhances urban biodiversity, improves air quality, and beautifies the environment.

My intersection and the sidewalk/paths leading up to my apartment are completely flooded... When I got home a couple hours ago there was no way to walk to my apartment without going through puddle sidewalks (luckily I was wearing waterproof shoes, but they were not boots so I was still walking carefully so as to not get my feet wet), but right now my entire intersection is literally unwalkable, barely drivable. I cannot go outside, but I will have to in less than an hour.

Choosing The Best Stormwater Management Solutions

With climate change, increased instances of storms and heavy rainfall pose a major challenge for people. Accumulation of stormwater in places due to inadequate or breakdown of infrastructure can create a hazard for life and property. If channelled correctly, stormwater can be harvested and managed to prevent flooding and serve the needs for non-drinking purposes. This can be accomplished using stormwater management systems which can handle the high volumes of water. When choosing a stormwater management system, here is how to choose the right ones:

1. Determine the type you want: The choice of stormwater management systems must be made only after determining the purpose of installing one. There are different types which include rainwater collection systems, permeable pavements, retention ponds, as well as green roofs or gardens.

2. Consider the design of the building: Depending on whether the roof of the building is flat or sloped, or edged with a parapet, different types of stormwater management solutions will need to be installed. In sloped roofs, installation may be done without the need for overhead pipes as the stormwater may be accumulated through the action of gravity, while for flat roofs, siphonic drainage systems may be installed. The pipes for stormwater management must be chosen distinct from the drainage system to ensure optimal efficiency.

3. The use of the collected water: Where and how you intend to use the stormwater collected in the stormwater management system will also determine its choice. Basic systems only allow for the water to be collected and harvested into a large tank or reservoir using drain pipe and connector systems from where it may be used for gardening and landscaping. More advanced systems may also treat the water and make it fit for use in bathrooms and for cleaning purposes while further treatment may make the water fit for consumption as well.

4. Location of water tank: Whether the water tank or reservoir of the system will be placed overground, or underground will also be a factor in the choice of the stormwater management system. While it may be possible to install underground tanks in new constructions or buildings with basements, for other constructions overground tanks may be more suitable.

Vermont has become the first state to enact a law requiring fossil fuel companies to pay a share of the damage caused by climate change after the state suffered catastrophic summer flooding and damage from other extreme weather.

Republican Gov. Phil Scott allowed the bill to become law without his signature late Thursday, saying he is very concerned about the costs and outcome of the small state taking on “Big Oil” alone in what will likely be a grueling legal fight. But he acknowledged that he understands something has to be done to address the toll of climate change.

“I understand the desire to seek funding to mitigate the effects of climate change that has hurt our state in so many ways,” Scott, a moderate Republican in the largely blue state of Vermont, wrote in a letter to lawmakers.

The popular governor who recently announced that he’s running for reelection to a fifth two-year term, has been at odds with the Democrat-controlled Legislature, which he has called out of balance. He was expected by environmental advocates to veto the bill but then allowed it to be enacted. Scott wrote to lawmakers that he was comforted that the Agency of Natural Resources is required to report back to the Legislature on the feasibility of the effort.

Last July’s flooding from torrential rains inundated Vermont’s capital city of Montpelier, the nearby city Barre, some southern Vermont communities and ripped through homes and washed away roads around the rural state. Some saw it as the state’s worst natural disaster since a 1927 flood that killed dozens of people and caused widespread destruction. It took months for businesses — from restaurants to shops — to rebuild, losing out on their summer and even fall seasons. Several have just recently reopened while scores of homeowners were left with flood-ravaged homes heading into the cold season.

Under the legislation, the Vermont state treasurer, in consultation with the Agency of Natural Resources, would provide a report by Jan. 15, 2026, on the total cost to Vermonters and the state from the emission of greenhouse gases from Jan. 1, 1995, to Dec. 31, 2024. The assessment would look at the effects on public health, natural resources, agriculture, economic development, housing and other areas. The state would use federal data to determine the amount of covered greenhouse gas emissions attributed to a fossil fuel company.

It’s a polluter-pays model affecting companies engaged in the trade or business of extracting fossil fuel or refining crude oil attributable to more than 1 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions during the time period. The funds could be used by the state for such things as upgrading stormwater drainage systems; upgrading roads, bridges and railroads; relocating, elevating or retrofitting sewage treatment plants; and making energy efficient weatherization upgrades to public and private buildings. It’s modeled after the federal Superfund pollution cleanup program.

“For too long, giant fossil fuel companies have knowingly lit the match of climate disruption without being required to do a thing to put out the fire,” Paul Burns, executive director of the Vermont Public Interest Research Group, said in a statement. “Finally, maybe for the first time anywhere, Vermont is going to hold the companies most responsible for climate-driven floods, fires and heat waves financially accountable for a fair share of the damages they’ve caused.”

Maryland, Massachusetts and New York are considering similar measures.

The American Petroleum Institute, the top lobbying group for the oil and gas industry, has said it’s extremely concerned the legislation “retroactively imposes costs and liability on prior activities that were legal, violates equal protection and due process rights by holding companies responsible for the actions of society at large; and is preempted by federal law.”

“This punitive new fee represents yet another step in a coordinated campaign to undermine America’s energy advantage and the economic and national security benefits it provides,” spokesman Scott Lauermann said in a statement Friday.

Vermont lawmakers know the state will face legal challenges, but the governor worries about the costs and what it means for other states if Vermont fails.

State Rep. Martin LaLonde, a Democrat and an attorney, believes Vermont has a solid legal case. Legislators worked closely with many legal scholars in crafting the bill, he said in statement.

“Most importantly, the stakes are too high – and the costs too steep for Vermonters – to release corporations that caused the mess from their obligation to help clean it up,” he said.

What is the drainage like in the Highest Light? What's the infrastructure situation on all those waterfalls? Are any of the waterfalls self-contained / self-feeding, and what's the pump and water engineering on that? What's their system like for significant increases and decreases in water volume of those waterfalls? How is their sewer system laid out? What systems are in place for stormwater management, and how effective is it?

Can someone please put me in touch with their Department of Environmental Protection, because I've got a lot of questions about the drainage and water infrastructure and generally about the water engineering. Their hypothetical and presumed infrastructure problems and concepts are just so interesting to me.

An orange warning in this case means that due to very heavy rainfall, the soil will become sodden and unable to absorb water, stormwater drainage systems will be overloaded and may overflow. River floodplains and low-lying areas are expected to flood, causing property and infrastructure flooding in some places, while road washouts and other damage are also possible.

Some flooded areas are likely to require evacuation. People should follow the instructions of the responsible authorities. Hazardous road conditions are also expected due to reduced visibility and aquaplaning. Drivers should expect that they need to plan longer trips or take an alternative route(..)

P.S. Thanks to global warming, such previously atypical, extremely intense rains for the region are becoming more frequent...

Brazil: Adverse weather forecast across southeastern regions through at least Jan. 28

Heavy rainfall forecast over southeastern Brazil through at least Jan. 28. Flooding, landslides, and transport disruptions possible.

Heavy rainfall is forecast across parts of southeastern Brazil through at least Jan. 28. Some coastal parts of the region may receive rainfall accumulations of more than 30 cm (12 inches) through Jan. 28. Thunderstorms and strong winds may accompany the heavy downpours. Sustained heavy rainfall could trigger flooding in low-lying areas and landslides on unstable slopes. Transport disruptions and power outages are also possible in affected areas.

As of early Jan. 25, Brazil's National Institute of Meteorology (Inmet) has issued red (the highest level on a three-tier scale) heavy rainfall warnings for coastal areas of Parana, northern Santa Catarina, and Sao Paulo. Orange heavy rainfall warnings are in place for a slightly wider area along the coasts of Parana, Santa Catarina. and central and southern Sao Paulo. Yellow warnings have been issued across much of the rest of the affected area. Officials could update and possibly extend the coverage of the relevant weather alerts over the coming days.

Sustained heavy rainfall could trigger flooding in low-lying communities near rivers, streams, and creeks. In developed areas with easily overwhelmed stormwater drainage systems, additional urban flooding is also possible. Sites downstream from large reservoirs or rivers may be subject to flash flooding after relatively short periods of intense rainfall. Landslides remain possible in hilly or mountainous areas, especially where heavy rainfall has saturated the soil. Power outages and disruptions to telecommunications services are likely where significant flooding, landslides, or strong winds impact utility networks.
