Using an engineered synthetic turf system to manage storm water at landfill sites addresses multiple issues while improving performance and reducing costs. By: Krista Willey

Handling concentrated flows of water at landfills presents multiple challenges when it comes to managing storm water. Typically, these systems consist of applications such as downchutes, perimeter channels, bench drains, outfall structures and basins to appropriately route water off of the landfill. It is important that these drainage structures be lined with materials that will protect against erosion in order to avoid failure, ongoing maintenance and potential violations…
