Rain Garden Workshops & Resources

North Scituate Village Stormwater Project Presentations
The North Scituate Village Stormwater Project, a partnership between U.S. EPA Region 1, RIDEM, The Town of Scituate, Providence Water, and Northern Rhode Island Conservation District, is well underway in North Scituate Village! With our partners, NRICD has been working to install stormwater best management practices, or devices that will prevent runoff from rain or snow from becoming polluted, in a small area in North Scituate Village.

Please explore this page to download information and resources about stormwater management, our stormwater project, and how you can control stormwater on your own property by using a rain garden or other stormwater management practice.
