The Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) has two programs to capture rainfall where it falls in both urban and undeveloped areas.
In undeveloped areas, MMSD’s Greenseams® program has protected 5,300 acres of undeveloped land in watershed headwaters with a goal of protecting 10,000 acres.
In urban areas, MMSD has a goal of capturing 0.5” of rainfall in green stormwater infrastructure throughout the MMSD service area.
Tour stops will highlight green storm water infrastructure implemented by the city of Milwaukee and other local partners along with a Greenseams® property that has preserved park and open space in the greater Milwaukee area.
