Green Glade Sr. Public School is a senior elementary school located in south Mississauga, adjacent to Rattray Marsh, a provincially significant [[Wetland]]. In 2011, Green Glade and Peel District School Board (PDSB) staff worked with Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) to retrofit the school property to incorporate a [[Rain garden]] low impact development (LID) feature. The rain garden accepts runoff from a portion of the school’s roof as well as runoff from a section of the parking lot. Learn about how the site was used as one of seven [[Bioretention]] practices that were studied in an effort to develop ‘certification protocols’ for LID practices. These  protocols are a process that municipalities and property managers can use to ensure that LID practices function as intended. To learn more click the button above.

Terra Cotta Conservation Area (TCCA) is a 250 hectare naturalized area in the village of Terra Cotta. Located in the Niagara Escarpment, it is home to several different species of plants, birds, and wildlife. In the summer of 2011, a [[Rain garden]] was constructed next to the Visitors Welcome Centre at TCCA. This rain garden was similar to what would typically be constructed on a residential property.
