Connecticut Landowner information on Healthy Riparian Zones
This brochure from CT DEEP explains the benefits of riparian buffers. Low Impact Development (LID) techniques manage stormwater runoff by mimicking the natural movement of water in the environment and preserving the pre‐development hydrology of a site. If your property includes or borders water features, one of the easiest and most cost effective methods for protecting water quality is to PLANT A VEGETATED RIPARIAN AREA.
