[State - Locality] Washington - Olympia [Initiative Type] Demonstration Project [Link] Decatur Low Impact Development [Date] Completed [Title & Description] 
Decatur Street Demonstration Project - The City of Olympia, Washington used a grant of $352,000 from the state's Department of Ecology to re-pave a street in 2007 with permeable pavement as part of a demonstration of stormwater management techniques. Decatur Street drains into nearby Schneider Creek and was originally designed without any stormwater management infrastructure. The permeable pavement used on Decatur Street is designed with an infiltration rate of 0.15 inches per hour. The City of Olympia will monitor the pervious pavement to determine how well rainwater infiltrates into the ground and the amount of pollution that is filtered. The City will also monitor the construction and long-term maintenance costs of the re-paved street.
