Interactive resource highlights water quality improvement projects

 

Largo, MD - Want to know where the next water quality improvement projects
are taking place in your community? Now you can easily locate that
information with just a few online clicks. The Prince George's County
Department of the Environment (DoE) has launched a new online resource tool
for residents and businesses to search for Construction Improvement Projects
(CIP) associated with water quality. Called the Clean Water Map, the online
map tool uses data from the County's web-based GIS to provide a fully
searchable and user-friendly resource for clean water information which is
accessible 24 hours a day. 

 

"This new online resource will become a useful and functional tool for
residents and businesses by allowing them to view the water quality projects
taking place in their communities," says DoE Director Adam Ortiz. "Our plan
is to grow the tool and add more data layers, so we invite the public to
browse the site and provide us with their feedback."

 

The new web-based tool benefits planners, designers and construction teams
through GIS-based environmental, geographic, property types, utilities,
impervious surface, infrastructure and other pertinent layers to assist with
project development. Some of its unique features include: major watersheds
and stream delineations, stream assessments, stormwater management and
infrastructure facilities, project inventories (planning, design,
construction, completed), project and address query tools and much more.
