GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE MIMICS NATURAL WATER SYSTEMS BY MANAGING AND USING STORM-WATER RUNOFF AT ITS SOURCE. IT IS AN ALTERNATIVE TO STANDARD "GRAY" INFRASTRUCTURE, WHICH DIVERTS RUNOFF DIRECTLY INTO LOCAL WATERWAYS THROUGH STORM-WATER PIPES AND DRAINS. EXCESSIVE POLLUTION AND NUTRIENT LOADING ASSOCIATED WITH RUNOFF ARE MAJOR PROBLEMS FACING WATERWAYS AND DRINKING WATER SOURCES ACROSS WISCONSIN. GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE IS AN IDEAL SOLUTION TO THOSE ISSUES BECAUSE IT ALLOWAS BUILT (LIVEABLE) LANDSCAPES TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES THAT WE RELY ON FOR RECREATION AND SUSTENANCE (OUR LIVELIHOOD).
