Peters Creek Bioretention Systems and Buffer Restoration (Camden County, NJ)

DRN provided restoration consultation for the riparian zone, and designed a 5,000 SF bioretention area in collaboration with the township engineer. Then the partnership led the bioretention area construction, and held two volunteer events where DRN led the removal of invasive species and installation of plantings in the buffer and bioretention area. The project has provided a beautiful and functional amenity which cleans and infiltrates stormwater runoff, while improving habitat along Peters Creek. Continuing work includes additional improvements to the buffer, and design of additional bioretention areas. Funding provided by the Borough of Audubon Park and matching contributors.
