Central Park Biofiltration Stormwater Treatment

The Central Park Stormwater Biofiltration System is located on the north end of Central Park, north of the hockey rink and south of the homes on Skycroft Drive. This system uses a sand filtration bed where stormwater enters the pond, filters through the sand filter, and then a series of pipes underneath the pond collect that water and drain it downstream. The project removes phosphorus and total suspended sediments that come into the pond from the adjacent park and parking lot areas. The system was constructed in 2014.
