Our heritage in Nine Mile Run coupled with hundreds of projects via StormWorks provides our community with hands-on and brains-on solutions. From large green infrastructure projects that divert and infiltrate thousands of gallons of stormwater to residential projects that keep basements dry while providing beautiful native landscaping.
Climate change is having an impact across the globe. Here in our urban environment these shifts are felt in our neighborhoods, parks, and backyards. This is why we work to combat these effects, from managing excessive stormwater flows, to pollutants in our water, soil and air, and to connect each other with the environment to create positive change.
In 2021, to recognize our proactive approach to stormwater problem-solving and its impact across the region, we became UpstreamPgh. Together, we are working to address the environmental problems that are happening in our communities by thinking, speaking and acting upstream. We invite you to join us.
