CHRONICLE OF GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE INNOVATION IN METRO VANCOUVER: “In the United States, too often we see a cookie-cutter approach. Not so with the British Columbia Guidebook – it is unique, and it is innovative,” stated Tom Schueler, founder and former Executive Director of the Center for Urban Watershed Protection
“I really like what Kim Stephens and his British Columbia team did in developing the water balance methodology, and I told him that after he pinch-hit for me in delivering the conference keynote in Chicago in February 2003. That was shortly after the Guidebook was published. Too often we see a cookie-cutter approach when guidebooks and manuals are replicated across the United States,” stated Tom Schueler.
