What is Green
Infrastructure?
![Page 3: Catchment 4 Green Infrastructure Conceptual Plan](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030311/58f0000f1a28abd0478b4605/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Green Infrastructure (GI) is naturally-occurring vegetation and
soils that mimic natural ecological processes to aid in water
management and create healthier ecosystems.

Poor stormwater
management leads to�.
● Downstream flooding
● Habitat destruction
● Infrastructure damage
● Combined Sewer Overflows
● Contaminated waterways

Good GI leads to*.
Lower energy consumption, lower costs
Reduces flooding and infrastructure to near zero
Cleaner waterways
