Enviroscape Watershed Model

Description

Available for local LOAN ONLY, free of charge to individuals, educators, families, scout and homeschool groups and anyone who wants to use this popular 3D EnviroScape® Watershed/Nonpoint Source Pollution model to provide a hands-on, interactive demonstration of the sources and effects of water pollution — and allows you to demonstrate ways to prevent it.

Easily demonstrate how storm water runoff carries pollutants through the watershed to a pond, lake, river, bay, or ocean – and the best management practices to prevent this type of pollution from occurring. The overall watershed/stormwater concept is effectively communicated to all ages (children to adults) –the landscape map provides two waterways that flow into a larger water body, which can be representative of a lake, river, bay, or ocean depending on your community.

Sources and prevention practices demonstrated focus on areas and issues such as –

• Residential
• Stormwater and storm drains
• Forestry
• Transportation
• Recreation
• Agriculture
• Construction
• Industrial (factory, treatment plant)

This popular model can be used to represent any community anywhere in the world!

Model is packet in a light weight carrying case with wheels for ease in transporting.

Questions and more information can be directed to us by emailing our water quality coordinator.
