Description
Rainwater is collected from two downspouts, each on separate sides
of the building. Underground piping utilizes gravity to convey
the water to the galvanized storage tank. The collected water
will be used to water the native grass plots on the east side
of the Menard Library. A raingarden is planned in order to collect
the overflow water from the tank.
