Pervious Concrete – California’s greatest tool for Stormwater Management and Aquifer Replenishment
A workshop designed for contractors, designers and public works officials in Southern California
When it Rains, It Drains!
Pervious concrete pavement is a unique and effective means to address important environmental issues and support sustainable growth. By capturing stormwater and allowing it to seep into the ground, porous concrete is instrumental in recharging groundwater, reducing stormwater runoff, and meeting U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) stormwater regulations. In fact, the use of pervious concrete is among the Best Management Practices (BMPs) recommended by the EPA– and by other agencies and geotechnical engineers across the country– for the management of stormwater runoff on a regional and local basis.
Come and see how you, too, can utilize this important new environmental tool. This workshop is designed to train and qualify contractors in the proper techniques in the placement of pervious concrete. For contractors, and those others that choose to, there is an exam that certifies you as a Certified Pervious Concrete Technician (CPCT). As a CPCT you can be included in the promotion of pervious concrete by CalCIMA. Don’t miss this opportunity!
