Permeable Paving Surfaces

Description:
Most people live in cities and suburban areas. These areas are characterized by acres of hard surfaces -- roads, rooftops and parking lots. In contrast to forests and fields, which allow rainwater to soak in, these impermeable surfaces force more and more rainwater to run off. By using paving surfaces that allow rainwater to soak into the ground, you can reduce excessive rainwater runoff and help prevent erosion.
