Delaware Run Storm Net
This storm net structure was developed as a student research project in cooperation with Ohio Wesleyan University, the City of Delaware Public Utilities Department, and StormX Water Systems. The purpose of this project is to determine if the capture and removal of trash and green debris through the net has an impact on the water quality of Delaware Run. The student-led research project will continue for years into the future with the hopes of improving the Delaware Run and the Olentangy River Watershed overall.
