As a part of our services, TERRA is peer reviewing the project’s pavements and grading as designed by others on the team for conformance with engineering best practices and applicable codes. TERRA is incorporating sustainability with numerous stormwater BMPs such as permeable paving, dry creek beds and green roofs which capture, treat and promote the infiltration of stormwater.
