Case Study: Hamilton County Conservation District improves stormwater management with Davey Resource Group native vegetation restoration

Hamilton County Conservation District boosts detention basin performance with Davey over 2 growing seasons

The Hamilton County Conservation District in Ohio needed to improve an existing stormwater detention basin. They engaged Davey Resource Group for a stormwater management and wetland restoration project to enhance its ecological function and pollution control.

Davey Resource Group's solution involved replacing the basin's turfgrass with native vegetation. After applying an aquatic-safe herbicide, they installed a diverse mix of native plants to improve stormwater infiltration and pollutant removal. Davey Resource Group also committed to multi-year maintenance to ensure the project's long-term success, achieving a cost-effective balance of community needs and ecological sustainability.
