Altadena Drainage Plans Being Approved

Its been an experience, but we are finally getting the latest batch of Altadena drainage plans approved by LA County. Our technique is to keep the existing drainage pattern so we don’t have to install stormwater sump pumps. This is special for the Altadena fire rebuilds.

After months of working through the approval process, we’re seeing our drainage plans finally get approved. The key has been demonstrating that by maintaining the original drainage patterns and using plastic lined rain gardens instead of sump pumps, we can achieve better stormwater management at a lower cost for homeowners.

The County has been receptive to our approach, particularly since the plastic lined rain gardens don’t trigger the same street plan requirements as sump pump systems. This saves homeowners significant time and money in the rebuilding process.
