BLUE Williston
How can residents participate? Williston residents can sign up for a free BLUE Williston evaluation to learn about actions you can take on your property to help reduce stormwater runoff. During the visit, we will assess your site’s current conditions and provide personalized suggestions to improve stormwater management. These recommendations might include rain gardens, rain barrels, permeable driveways, infiltration trenches, gutter re-directs, dry wells, and more. Following the visit, we will send a report back with our suggestions, and we hope that you choose a stormwater management practice to install on your property.

Rebates? Funding for rebates is limited and the Williston Stormwater Program reserves the right to select which projects will receive rebate funds. Standards from the BLUE Basis of Design Manual must be adhered to and documented throughout the design process to receive rebates from the Town of Williston. Before implementing any projects, please seek approval of your designs from BLUE Williston representatives at Lake Champlain Sea Grant. They can be reached at blue [at] uvm.edu. At that time, you can confirm with the BLUE Williston program, prior to installation, if your project will be eligible for a rebate. This depends on the availability of funding, the eligibility of your project design, and the timing of the installation. Rebates will be disbursed through Fitzgerald Environmental Associates.
