Hi. Got a question from a company about any regulatory concerns or
practical concerns regarding pervious concrete.

 

On one hand, it helps reduce storm water runoff.

 

On the other, do automotive fluids that accumulate on the surface,
eventually work their way through into the ground water.

 

Any regulatory or practical considerations would be appreciated as
well
as an BMPs if you decide to go with it.

 

Thanks.
