Some examples include:

  • Rain barrel/ rainwater harvesting

  • Rain garden

  • Grassy or planted swale

  • Dry riverbed

Stormwater features may have been installed to manage runoff, reduce watering needs, or protect water quality.


If you have installed stormwater infrastructure, RiverLink would like to hear from you!


RiverLink is a non-profit organization focused on improving water quality in the French Broad River and its tributaries, such as the Swannanoa River that flows through Black Mountain.


RiverLink is collecting stories of people who have installed stormwater measures to improve water quality in the Swannanoa River and the French Broad River.


Please share your stormwater mitigation stories with RiverLink by emailing waterresources@riverlink.org.


A rain garden with native plants was installed next to a sidewalk. People gather to view it.
