Saddler’s WoodsStormwater Management (Camden County, NJ)

DRNwith its partners developed a Stormwater Management Master Plan, and designed and constructed a 15,000 square foot bioretention system to clean, slow and reduce stormwater entering Saddlers Woods, a preserved 25-acre woodland with historical significance. Under pre-project conditions, elevated levels of stormwater runoff have been causing instability of the headwater streams flowing through Saddlers Woods, causing erosion, resulting in extensive downstream sedimentation. Design has begun on the next phase of restoration – an eroding tributary. Funded by NJ DEP and matching sources.
