Low-Impact Development (LID)

LID emphasizes practices which infiltrate stormwater (using proper safeguards to protect groundwater) on-site rather than collecting, conveying and discharging stormwater off-site.  
(Washington State Department of Ecology)
Some exciting LID projects Mason CD has been working on:
In Progress: 
  • MTA Transit-Community Center
                    
Completed:
  • PUD 3​​​        
  • Turning Pointe Domestic Violence Services 
  • Pioneer School
  • Southside Elementary School 
  • Hood Canal School
