When a drop of rain water falls from the sky, and contacts our land, at that moment it becomes a natural resource. In the past, this natural resource has been mostly ignored. The storm water flows rogue into our tidal waters, dipositing silt, nutrients, and other pollutants, doing harm to our estuaries.
HIE is a 501 (c) (3) that is in need of equipment and resources to aid in the implementation of its "floodplain stormwater containment basins" (FSCB) items need are, track loaders, excavators, skid steer loaders, dozers, dump trucks, or most any type of construction/earth moving equipment that is in good usable condition, also materials needed are, silt fence, filter cloth, rip-rap stone, sand and curlex.
