Strategic Landscape Utilization Of Undeveloped Lands Within Dallas Executive Airport Boundary: Airport Stormwater Management, Ali Khoshkar
Strategic Landscape Utilization Of Undeveloped Lands Within Dallas Executive Airport Boundary: Airport Stormwater Management, Ali Khoshkar
Landscape Architecture Masters & Design Theses
The purpose of this research is to investigate and propose a sustainable stormwater management improvement for the Dallas Executive Airport future master plan development while carefully considering wildlife preservation and the beautification of the new facility. The literature review draws upon documented research that global aviation growth causes increasing environmental issues. An in-depth review of the history of the airport’s environmental impact shows an increasing concern which ultimately lead to the assigned regulations. The research dives into existing environmental issues caused by air transportation, focusing specifically on stormwater pollutions at small airports and the applicable solutions within the airport boundary …

Identification Of Suitable Locations For Permeable Pavements And Bioretention Ponds / Rain Gardens Using Gis Suitability Analysis For Enhanced Stormwater Management Capacity In The City Of Dallas, Muzaib Riaz, Ardeshir Anjomani
Identification Of Suitable Locations For Permeable Pavements And Bioretention Ponds / Rain Gardens Using Gis Suitability Analysis For Enhanced Stormwater Management Capacity In The City Of Dallas, Muzaib Riaz, Ardeshir Anjomani
Planning Masters Professional Reports
Low Impact Development (LID) Strategies have shown effectiveness in managing stormwater efficiently at its source. LID strategies can be utilized to manage storm water in coordination with conventional stormwater management infrastructure to increase efficiency and reduce flooding in case of extreme precipitation events. In this study GIS suitability analysis technique has been used to identify suitable locations for permeable pavements and bioretention ponds / rain gardens; two of the four main LID Best Management Practices (BMPs) within the City of Dallas. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to determine weights of factors for suitability analysis. Case studies from Bryan …

Wet Ponds As A Stormwater Management Tool And An Alternative Water Source For Irrigating Parks In Arlington, Texas, Cassandra Marie Harashe, Yekang Ko
Planning Masters Professional Reports
A growing population in the Dallas - Fort Worth area will lead to water shortages if alternative water sources are not utilized. This reports looks into the aspects of utilizing wet ponds as a source of water for irrigating public playing fields in Arlington, Texas. It covers the benefits of reducing stormwater and utilizing this water for irrigation. It also covers different pond types, design aspects, the site selection process, potential cost savings, and the policy implications of utilizing this type of Low Impact Development. This study demonstrates that wet ponds are a viable option for treating stormwater to be …
