Join the Valley Creek Restoration Partnership for a tour of four infiltration trench projects completed in the Upper Crabby Creek Watershed on June 20 from 10:00 a.m. to Noon starting from the Tredyffrin Township Building, 1100 DuPortail Road in Berwyn, Chester County.

These best management practices collect the runoff of one-half to one inch storms from 35 acres of drainage area in residential neighborhoods. The trenches range in length from 25 yards to 130 yards and in width from 4 to 10 feet. The storage capacity of the 4 trenches is 60,000 gallons.

The projects were managed by Tredyffrin Township, designed by Cahill & Associates and then ch2m. The trenches were installed in the eased land along the street curbing on four different roads in upper Crabby Creek.

Questions should be directed to: Chuck Marshall by sending email to: cgmarshall1@verizon.net.
