Daylighting Streams: From pipes and culverts into the open
Designing with Nature
“Daylighting—the practice of restoring a stream that had been routed through a culvert back to its natural state—is becoming a more common stormwater trend throughout the United States. By taking the stream out of 
the concrete channel, daylighting allows for infiltration, and it improves downstream water quality by removing pollutants from the water. Wildlife habitat, as well as eye-pleasing green space, is expanded through creek daylighting,” writes Carol Brzozowski in the September 2010 issue of Stormwater Magazine.
