Green Infrastructure Sample Clauses

Green Infrastructure a) Objective The green infrastructure stream will support greenhouse gas emission (GHG) reductions, enable greater adaptation and resilience to the impacts of climate change and climate- related disaster mitigation, and ensure that more communities can provide clean air and safe drinking water for their citizens. This stream includes the following three sub-streams: i. climate change mitigation; ii. adaptation, resilience, disaster mitigation; and iii. environmental quality.

Green Infrastructure. Prior to the occupation of the development hereby permitted, details of the green infrastructure (including details of planting species and maintenance) in order to mitigate air pollution for public and private amenity areas on the site boundaries with Wood Lane (A219), Westway (A40) and West Cross Route (A3220) shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. The green infrastructure for each phase shall be constructed and planted in full accordance with ‘Using Green Infrastructure to Protect People from Air Pollution’, Mayor of London, GLA, April 2019 guidance document within the first available planting season following completion of Buildings. Any plants which die, are removed, become seriously damaged and diseased within a period of five years from completion of these buildings shall be replaced in the next planting season with others of similar size and species. Approved details shall be fully implemented for each phase prior to the occupation/use of that phase of the development and thereafter permanently retained and maintained. To comply with the requirements of the NPPF, Policies 7.14a-c of the London Plan, and Policy CC10 of the Local Plan 2018.

Green Infrastructure. An approach to excess precipitation that uses simple methods to reduce and treat at the point of impact. The methods and structures are designed to mimic natural and semi-natural areas that can collect, absorb and filter the water, a manner of water purification and climate mitigation. Storm water: The rainwater or melted snow that runs off streets, lawns and other surfaces. Amounts can vary based on the intensity of the storm.

Green Infrastructure. According to the Green Infrastructure Center (2008), "Green infrastructure includes the interconnected natural systems and ecological processes that provide clean water, air quality, and wildlife habitat. GI sustains a community's social, economic, and environmental health." GI planning jointly considers management of wastewater, drinking water, and ground and surface water resources together with management of natural and built land features like contours, forests, and floodplains as well as roads, park systems, and building and zoning regulations that reduce sprawl and stormwater runoff (Xxxxxxxx, 2008). Using a statewide Virginia GI assessment, counties and regions are now working with agencies to integrate GI use and protection into their local comprehensive planning efforts with the intention of reducing long term financial and environmental costs while also facilitating compliance with various state and federal environmental requirements (Virginia Department of Conservation & Recreation, 2008.) LID and ESD practices facilitate the protection and use of GI in comprehensive planning. See xxxx://xxxxx.xxx.xxx/npdes/xxxx.xxx?program_id=298. Smart growth. Smart growth also deals with issues that encompass but are much broader than stormwater. In addition to preserving open space, farmland, natural beauty, and critical environmental areas, smart growth includes principles such as mixing land uses and creating walkable neighborhoods (USEPA, 2008b). Smart growth should consider the integration of GI into land management and development planning. Some smart growth practices reduce the amount of paved surfaces and can allow natural lands to filter rainwater and runoff (USEPA, 2008c). See xxx.xxx.xxx/xxxx.

Green Infrastructure. The Mersey Forest Team is at the forefront of championing the concept of green infrastructure planning. Green infrastructure planning is becoming increasingly familiar to a wide range of professionals involved in economic and land use planning. The Forest Team needs to maintain its lead role in this area and also to provide support to partner organisations in their development of green infrastructure strategies, frameworks and plans. Key actions in 2009/10 will be to: • Develop the Green Infrastructure Unit • Complete the Merseyside Green Infrastructure Framework and initiate the Cheshire and Warrington version • Deliver the Critical Green Infrastructure study and continue our work on green infrastructure and climate change.

Related to Green Infrastructure

  • Infrastructure Infrastructure serves as the foundation and building blocks of an integrated IT solution. It is the hardware which supports Application Services (C.3.2) and IT Management Services (C.3.3); the software and services which enable that hardware to function; and the hardware, software, and services which allow for secure communication and interoperability between all business and application service components. Infrastructure services facilitate the development and maintenance of critical IT infrastructures required to support Federal government business operations. This section includes the technical framework components that make up integrated IT solutions. One or any combination of these components may be used to deliver IT solutions intended to perform a wide array of functions which allow agencies to deliver services to their customers (or users), whether internal or external, in an efficient and effective manner. Infrastructure includes hardware, software, licensing, technical support, and warranty services from third party sources, as well as technological refreshment and enhancements for that hardware and software. This section is aligned with the FEA/DoDEA Technical Reference Model (TRM) which describes these components using a vocabulary that is common throughout the entire Federal government. A detailed review of the TRM is provided in Section J, Attachment 5. Infrastructure includes complete life cycle support for all hardware, software, and services represented above, including planning, analysis, research and development, design, development, integration and testing, implementation, operations and maintenance, information assurance, and final disposition of these components. The services also include administration and help desk functions necessary to support the IT infrastructure (e.g., desktop support, network administration). Infrastructure components of an integrated IT solution can be categorized as follows:
