C2.02 - Runoff Biogarden
Discrete and sustainable infiltration system
Sponsor: City of San Marcos
Student Team: Jadyn Gaudette, Dustin Schulze, and Veronica Krylova
Faculty Advisor: Dr. Felipe Gutierrez
The runoff biogarden project will provide a design and a model of a natural and low-cost water relocation system from runoff and rainfall. Crockett Elementary School in San Marcos, Texas is where our proposed project will be located and has clayey soil properties. The chosen location on the property lacks proper water mitigation techniques proving the importance of a runoff biogarden. With the utilization of gravel, mulch, and native plants, this biogarden will reduce water runoff to unwanted nearby areas such as sidewalks and streets. Another objective of the biogarden is to educate individuals of all ages about sustainable infiltration practices to increase the interest in this discrete system.
