PERMEABLE PAVEMENT
Are you a homeowner who needs to replace your driveway or sidewalks?
Or perhaps you're a developer or business owner with an existing or a proposed parking lot.
Consider permeable pavement which allows water to pass through it to a rock subgrade. Help infiltrate the water back into the ground while lessening stormwater runoff, rainwater detention requirements (possibly eliminating detention pond requirements), and erosion and flooding potential.

How to De-Pave
Most pavement in Danville is impermeable creating stormwater runoff and contributing towards pollution. If you can depave your impermable surface you'll be contributing towards a greener and more beautiful Danvillle. Check out the How to Depave Guide.
