_____________is an approach to managing rainwater runoff that emphasizes on-
site natural features
Low-impact development is an approach to managing rainwater runoff that emphasizes
on-site natural features to protect water quality by replicating the natural land cover
hydrologic regime of watersheds and addressing runoff close to its source. Examples
include better site design principles (e.g., minimizing land disturbance, preserving
vegetation, minimizing impervious cover) and design practices (e.g., rain gardens,
vegetated swales and buffers, permeable pavement, rainwater harvesting, soil
amendments). These are engineered practices that may require specialized design
assistance." - USGBC
