Jepson completed the stormwater site plan for the Fairhaven Highlands project. This stormwater management plan was unique because this was a large, highly scrutinized project with significant environmental constraints including steep slopes, large established wetlands, and multiple watershed drainage patterns. Jepson worked closely with wetland biologists to identify, locate, and monitor wetland water quality and water level fluctuations. Our design team modeled the wetland fluctuations and stormwater requirements utilizing the monitoring data to calibrate the wetland fluctuation hydroperiods.
