Dynamic Stormwater Management

Imagine water storage systems that manage significant rain events as well. When sizing for stormwater management cisterns, for example, can't be included because they may or may not already be full. But what if your cistern was connected to an internet weather station and released water before significant events? This could kill two birds with one stone, creating storage and management simultaneously. Pretty cool article here explains it in detail.
