A rain garden captures stormwater runoff pollution at the Knollwood Life Plan Community in Northwest Washington, D.C., on July 17, 2024. The retirement community installed the example of green infrastructure in partnership with District Stormwater. The rain garden, bordering the Knollwood parking lot, is estimated to capture 2.2 million gallons of runoff annually, filtering it using nature-based processes before it reaches Rock Creek, the Potomac River, and ultimately the Chesapeake Bay. The new rain garden is approximately 4,700 square feet and captures runoff from 1.6 acres of impervious surface. It includes a variety of native and flowering plants that will provide habitat and food for pollinators. (Photo by Rhiannon Johnston/Chesapeake Bay Program)
