Summary
The Upper Oso Watershed Water Quality Improvement and Habitat Education Project will construct a Best Management Practices 3-acre detention wetland, located at LyondellBasell Park, establish habitat along the perimeter of the wetland, incorporate a public education signage component, and create an educational partnership with the local school district. The wetland will provide drainage benefits by providing detention of stormwater on site and removal of stormwater pollutants. The detention wetland will provide educational benefits by supplying a vegetated aquatic habitat to study wildlife.
