Location: Washington, DC

RiverSmart Washington is a long-term demonstration project of the Department of Energy and Environment in partnership with the Department of Transportation and DC Water. This project sought to evaluate and implement low-impact development strategies to decentralize storm water management and maximize runoff reduction.
Project HIghlights
This project required sediment and erosion control, tree protection, storm water facilities, grading, bioretention, and rainwater harvesting. Arya Civil installed pervious pavers, irrigation and drainage systems, electrical and plumbing utilities, plus concrete work including pavers, stone curbs and benches, a sidewalk, and retaining walls. We also were responsible for educational signage and landscaping work. This project was especially challenging given a timeline of less than four months.
