Excavate the rain garden and place the soil on the downhill side to build a berm and retain water. Turn the base of the garden deeply (2-4 feet). If soil texture is high in clay, add compost improve in drainage. Then level out the base so that water spreads evenly across the rain ...
LAND consolidationA new approach for sites prioritization and designing measures on land drainage was developed and tested on the 96.5 km2 ejbro catchment (Czech Republic). The aim was to design an effective, mutually interconnected system of measures, on tiles, manhole...
One option is to install solar panels on the roof of your shipping container home. This will help reduce your carbon footprint and save you money on energy bills in the long run. Additionally, you can implement rainwater harvesting systems to collect and store rainwater for non-potable uses s...

Sludge produced should not be stored near drainage and irrigation canals and water resources, - Reduce the number of displacements of sludge so that the agitation of dust in the air is reduced to a minimum, - Limit the application of the amount of sludge rich in heavy metals, - During the...
Yet another option is a compost bin that sits on top of the ground but still has holes in the bottom to help with drainage. It doesn’t have as much access to the natural soil, but since the bin is aboveground you can get a composter with multiple bins or even two separate ones if...

According to theEPA, permeable pavements can reduce the overall cost of both residential and commercial projects, since the pavers can reduce the need for conventional drainage features. Raboine agrees: “Certain styles eliminate the need for traditional drainage and detention requirements, which saves...
Each of these scales has a relationship to urban planning: The macro scale should respond to bioregional considerations such as widespread drainage patterns; for example, ‘city as catchment’ (Kenway & Tjandraatmadja, 2009), coastal areas at risk of sea-level rise or low-lying sites at risk...
To maintain a functioning electric fence over time, you need to do your voltage reading every now and then and ensure everything works fine. Basically, it is always better to overpower your fence than under-power it because, over time, the soil drainage and vegetation willaffect the voltage,...
