Delaware's Green Infrastructure Primer, published in 2016, is an excellent source of information on green infrastructure.
  • Green Infrastructure Primer: State of Delaware, 2016 (52 pages)
  • Blue Green Solutions. A Systems Approach to Sustainable, Resilient and Cost-Efficient Urban Development: Bozovic, Ranko; Maksimovic, Čedo; Mijic, Ana; Smith, K.M.; Suter, Ivo; Van Reeuwijk, Maarten; 2017. "This guide presents an innovative framework to systematically unlock the multiple benefits of city natural infrastructure; thus producing resilient, sustainable and cost-effective solutions. The framework is applicable at a building, neighbourhood and city-scale and is suitable both for new and retrofit developments."
  • Low Impact Development Stormwater Management Planning and Design Guide. Sustainable Technologies Evaluation Program, Toronto and Region Conservation. "The guide was developed to provide engineers, ecologists and planners with up-to-date information and direction on landscape-based stormwater management planning and low impact development stormwater management practices".
  • Watershed Stewards Academy Rainscaping Manual. Watershed Stewards Academy. The goal of this manual is to provide a resource to design, install, and maintain Conservation Landscaping and stormwater management practices suited primarily to residential and small commercial or institutional properties.
