Resilience: A healing Journey of human and natural system

Mississippi State University 2017

Chadwick Lake is situated at the intersection of Highway 182 and George Perry Street in Mississippi State University (MSU), Starkville. The Lake has existed since 1960, and it is named Chadwick for memorializing William Dean Chadwick who was an athletic director and a famous coach at Mississippi A&M (today is known as MSU). The site is close to the MSU athletic fields, which are devoted to physical activity, containing a softball area, a baseball area, a coliseum for basketball , a football practice facility, an athletic track, tennis courts, and the Sanderson Center (gym), which more than 2000 people use daily. To the north of the site is the MSU Rodney Foil Plant Science Center and a large area of the farm. Because of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Starkville - Oktibbeha Consolidated School Districtâ&#x20AC;? plan. A 42.8 acre Partnership Middle school and Rural Education Institute will be built to the east in 2018 for about 900 students. The project site has 61 acres: 13.2 acre of water area and 10.7 acre parking lot. The lake condition has runoff, erosion, and pollution problems, which are causes by campus development, and human activities.

Project Statement This project focuses on establishing a healing environment on the campus to reduce the daily pressures of students, faculty, and staff. This space will help them overcome emotional and mental blocks, as well as provide strategies for wildlife re-habitation. A healing environment will help students to escape the stresses of work and school and release their burdens. They can enjoy their happy moments with friends, or appreciate a quiet environment in solitude. The site is also open to the public, so that visitors can escape the busyness of the city and be free to release their emotions. For the ecological functions, the design should be highly sustainable with a functional stormwater control system that respects nature. More importantly, the project needs to emphasize the natural healing systems that help wildlife Watershed map habitat restoration. Visitors can experience eco-tourism on The Project Site the site. For the educational function, the site can also be Stream Corridor used as a healing environment that demonstrates natural systems, wildlife, stormwater management, and even arts Water Flow from the area. This site has the potential to be a popular, Davis Wade Stadium iconic area on campus, and in the city of Starkville. Barr

Lake Existing Conditions & Water Test

Unsanitary cups and bottles on the Southside of the lake. This is one of the most contaminated areas in the lake because of water runoff from the south of campus, which washes off to the lake through a large pipe located under the water.

Some areas located along the lakes edge consists of copious amounts of algae. It occurs when the water is relatively stable, and accumulates a high concentration of nitrates and phosphates. Excessive algae can cause water to produce a bad odor, and cause health risks to aquatic species.

Six water test areas

Erosion is a problem on the site. In 2016, a new sea wall was built on the northwest portion of the lake to protect severe erosion. This project cost $175,000, and the site has three sea walls.

Project Statement

The design we propose brings the student into contact with nature in a variety of ways: through a butterfly and wildflower garden, a rain garden with cistern, and edible/fruit-bearing plants located in the Kitchen Community installation and throughout the design. Seasonal butterflies and edible fruit plants help to illustrate the interconnected web of life and our place in it. Rainwater is managed in a visible and creative way to educate students about the importance of water resources today, as well as sustain a vibrant pond ecosystem next to the rain garden that brings students into contact with the water. The art wall proposal is anotherway to further show the movement of water and provide a gathering space for exploring the butterfly garden and vertical herb wall. Finally, the Marian Shrine Garden Cathedral would reuse and restore existing benches and create a more formal space for quiet reflection. The cellular learning garden brings a fresh and fun layout that allows visitors to connect with the numerous educational opportunities present throughout the entire site and to transform studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience of the learning process into one of continuous exploration and potential.

Break the Boundary: A Brownfield Community Plan

Columbus, MS 2016

The Columbus site is a former wood treatment facility in operation since 1928. It spans 90 acres. KerrMcGee purchased it in 1964 and operated it until 2003. It was then that the site was closed and sealed off. Environmental testing agencies found creosote contamination in sediment samples taken from drainage ditches and near by residential property, contamination was the results by wood products were treated with the pesticide pentachlorphenol until 1976. Coal tar and creosote were also used to treat wood products until the shutdown. The company used open ditches that were located in 100-year-flood plains to transport surface water runoff from the plant into Luxapilila Creek, which spread toxic chemicals to neighboring residential areas through flooding, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

Project Statement

The concept of this project is â&#x20AC;&#x153;Break The Boundaryâ&#x20AC;?. The site was an industrial area for decades. Currently it is a barren, contaminated, and abandoned place surrounded by low-income neighborhoods. From the map, people can see that there is a clear boundary between the site and the residence communities. This project is trying to give an opportunity of renascence to the site, and also give a new vision to the citizens. The plan is dedicated to be a sustainable development site that connects to the communities. Also, encouraging economic development, and address high rates of poverty is the goal of this project.

Commercial Area & Community Park Commercial land is vital to its surrounding community. It offers job opportunities, stimulates economic increase, and promote the financial stability for this low-developed community. A community park can provide a nice gathering space for local residents to relax

Community College & Althletic Area Education can help young people gain more skills and knowlege to find jobs. An athletic area close to the campus for student use, can also can be a public physical health center.

Functional Partition

Community Service Area The surrounding area is predominately a lowincome residential place that lacks spaces for community getherings. The proposed police station, post office, health center and cinema can improve local residents' life quality.

Apartments Area New apartments with a swimming pool and a vegetable garden can attract more young people to live in this community.

Solar Power Facility The site is a highly contaminated area. Therefore, industrial development is not good for the improvement of the environment. Light industrial facilities such as solar power production, can provide jobs for local people with minor environmental influence.

Sarkville, MS 2016

Team Members: Ying Qin Michael Keating The Oktibbeha County Heritage Museum was built in 1976 in Starkville, Mississippi.The Oktibbeha Heritage Museum engages the public through both permanent and rotating exhibits that highlight local community culture and through public events, such as educational tours and fund-raising events. In 2009, a multi-year Rain Garden project was initiated through the Mississippi State University Landscape Architecture and Architecture programs. When construction finished in spring 2013, a green roof pavilion, cistern, and infiltration areas had been installed to retain and clean water on-site.

Four distinct benefits will be explored: environmental, social, economic, and educational. These benefits will be compared between before and after the installation of the Rain Garden project on the site. Objectives: • Conduct a “Before-and-After” Inventory and Analysis Package of the Oktibbeha Heritage Museum site • Carry out established methods acquired through the Landscape Performance Series to determine the benefits of the project installation • Relate findings to the overall context of landscape performance and assess process limitations for future work 33

Circulation & Hydrology Vehicular Circulation Pedestrian Circulation Water flow

There are three streets around the site: Followship Street, Russell Street, and Hogan Street. There is no sidewalks for pedestrian and no bike lanes on the street. Rain water flows from the cemetery to the road and also from the site to the low area of Russell Street.

Vegetation & Climate & Utilities The dominant plants on the site is Oak and Crape myrtles. Most canopy trees are planted in the southwest area of the site. A 1,000 gallon cistern captures rain water from the museum roof and stores it for irrigation of the gardens and green roof. Lights added on site increase visitor security and attract people to use this space at night. Signs on the site educate visitors of the various watershed protection measures employed to retain and clean rainwater.

Hydrology on Master Plan High Point

Low Point

Water flow

A 600 sq.ft. green roof pavilion reduces stormwater runoff and also decreases the pressure on sewer systems. More green space replaces concrete pavement, which slows and filters water moving across the site. Runoff is collected by the bioretention system at the low area. A sand filter captures and cleans roof runoff, and a dry swale transports water to bioretention area.

Design and Contextual Characteristics Architectural Styles

The Heritage Museum combines several material types into its design to reflect both the architecture of the building and to connect the place to its historical roots of being a train station depot. For this reason, railroad ties edge the parking areas, simple iron posts support the green roof, and wood benches were placed along the walkways. Additionally, recycled pipe was incorporated into the bench design to further enhance the industrial features and re-use material on-site.

Social Spaces

Social gathering spaces installed in the southern grassy area, the northern flow-through planter area, and along the entrance deck have increased the programming options for the Heritage Meseum. Additionally, the green roof provides an educational tool beyond acting as a social gathering space that provides shade, protection from the elements, and lighting for nighttime events.

Surrounding Area

Russell Street to the south of the Heritage Museum has experienced rapid development in recent years and the continued development in the Cotton District area gives the Heritage Museum a great central location between downtown Starkville and the new development just to the west of Mississippi State University.

Public Safety

The design addresses visitor safety through the use of ground and overhead lighting to create safe places at night for social events. Also, the increased development of highdensity apartment housing in the immediate vicinity of the museum will create higher visitor traffic to the site as a gathering space, thereby providing a sense of security for visitors. The green roof is locked to prevent any accidents in the absence of museum personnel. Crosswalks along Russell will be necessary to ensure safe pedestrian travel to the site.

Methods for Stormwater Runoff

To determine the difference in stormwater runoff between pre- and post-development conditions, a Curve Number (CN) approach was applied to the site and weighted by total area. Google Earth historical (March 2007) and current imagery were used to determine certain landcover areas such as parking lots and roof area. The soils on the site are fine sandy loam with a very low infiltration rate (0 – 0.06 in/hr, Soil Survey Staff), categorizing them as Soil Group D according to The Urban Hydrology for Small Watersheds Report (TR-55, USDA-NRCS 1986). Based on the soil group, we then used the CN table to determine the CN values for each land-cover type present on site. The CN was then weighted by specific area [Area*CN]. The following formula was used to determine a weighted CN value for the total site area: ∑(Area1 * CN1) + (Area2 * CN2) + (Area3 * CN3) + … / Total Site Area Where the Total Site Area was 0.56 acres and the CN values ranged from 0-98. We found the mean CN value weighted by total area for pre- and post-development conditions to be 87.7 and 62.3, respectively.

Carbon Storage Method Using an online tree benefit calculator (National Tree Benefit Calculator) that determines pounds per tree based on diameter breast height (DBH) and genus/species, we compared pre- and post-development carbon (C) storage in tree vegetation on site. Specifically, we compared trees removed during demolition with trees planted in the final implementation. We did not have exact measurements on the ornamental pear trees pre-development, but the museum staff informed us that they were mature trees with about 8â&#x20AC;? DBH. Given the fact that the trees planted in 2012 are not currently at full maturity, we calculated tree C storage (lbs) for both current conditions and for when the trees double in DBH. We found no loss in C storage between the loss of pre-development trees (801 lbs.) and the planting of post-development trees (815 lbs.). Furthermore we expect the trees to grow to hold 2,335 lbs. when they double in DBH. Limitations: We were unable to include shrubs and herbaceous plants in the comparison, simply for lack of information on the amounts of C storage for various shrub species. C storage information is more available for tree species as opposed to shrub and herb species.

Species Comparison Method A species comparison between pre- and post-development revealed a significant increase in the post-development planting diversity (82 species) compared to pre-development (6 species). The new plantings are completely comprised of native species that are important food and nesting areas for bird, butterflies, and other pollinators. Plant density increases were concentrated in bioretention areas which are an important part of the water retention and purification capacity as well as habitat creation to support a more diverse ecosystem.

Financial records were provided by both the Friends of the Museum and The Heritage Museum Board. Membership fees, contributions, fundraisers, and annual net income data were provided by the Friends of the Museum for the years 2012-2015. Grants from the City of Starkville and Oktibbeha County obtained by the Heritage Museum Board between 2009-2015 were also made available. Inquiries were made to the neighboring apartment complex to see if renovations or rent increases had been made since the addition of the Heritage Museum design. It is possible that the design installation raised property values in surrounding areas, but after talking with the owner of Fellowship Place Apartments, no such changes have been made as a result of the construction. Across Russell Street, however, a large apartment complex is currently being erected and, though we did not talk with the developers, it is possible that unit pricing could have been influenced by proximity to the Heritage Museum.

Social Benefits

Visitor counts for the years of 2010-2015 were made from log books containing signatures from each visitor to the museum. Outdoor, catered, and nighttime events became possible as a result of the design installation. Outdoor fundraisers, such as Denim & Diamonds, were improved since 2012 and others, such as movie nights, informal live music sessions, and the Beaux Arts Ball, were created as a result of the new exterior. The Starkville Arts Council Garden tour and the garden club visits further bring groups to the museum. Additionally, new ADA-accessible restrooms were constructed on site to meet the needs of handicapped visitors. No change had been observed in Cub Scout troop visits, a limitation noted by museum staff to be due to the lack of a permanent program director to record the data. Educational Benefits No new groups of primary or secondary school students have visited the museum. The only student groups that continue to visit the site are those from Mississippi State University, comprised of Landscape Architecture, Architecture, and Home Economics students. Student groups visit the museum multiple times each year since the design installation in 2012.

Disconnect to Connect: A Watershed Experience

Alcorn State University 2015

Team Members: Ying Qin (Design) Michael Keating (Design) Edith L. Martinez-Guerra (Civil Engineering) Anas Bdour,(Lumion/short film) A site demonstration project was designed for Alcorn State University, a HBCU located in Lorman, MS. The campus quad is at the heart of campus and hosts many activities throughout the year in addition to being a main connection for the majority of campus life. Given its prominence at the university, we chose to develop a multi-phased watershed demonstration design that both celebrates and educates visitors about the importance of stormwater management and water security.

Green infrastructure is rapidly replacing concrete, metal, and plastic stormwater infrastructure around the country, providing an exciting way to make our world Greener. In our design, we will disconnect the watershed from the traditional stormwater pipe system to create an amenity at the center of campus that connects visitors with water and educates them about the importance of proper watershed management. We will expose the hidden movement of water and demonstrate the hidden pathways through which water is channelled during strong rain events. Water is a necessary element for life and we want to bring it into the open to celebrate and educate about its importance for ecosystems and human health and safety. Due to the proximity to the Mississippi River (3 miles), we have designed a water demonstration plaza in the heart of Alcorn State Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campus that draws on the historical, cultural, and physical connections with The River. Words in the landscape inspire people to be part of the solution to water quantity and quality problems in our watersheds, while fun water art brings people into contact with rainwater that engages multiple senses. Significant carbon storage from perennial wetland plants and trees helps to reduce the effects of climate change, while providing clean air to breathe and naturally-shaded spaces for relaxation.The "Disconnect To Connect" design will inspire all visitors to view water in a completely different way and to demonstrate that, in a world that is becoming more inter-connected, we all live downstream. 47

Site Section Site Improvements

The stormwater pipe connecting the dining hall roof to the main pipe system was disconnected and re-routed to bring water to the surface. This stormwater exposition creates an amenity that also allows for water retention and purification through the Riverine Retention System.

Existing stormwater pipe from building re-routed to bioretention area

The pie charts show the change in land-use from Existing to Proposed conditions on the 13.2 acre site. Planting 30 trees increases tree canopy and carbon storage, while the paving design increases impervious area. The addition of a 2% Bioretention area (0.23 acres) is all that is needed to handle >95% of average annual rainfall on-site. 48

Existing Site Condition

Proposed Site Condition

A section elevation cut through the site from north to south illustrates the plaza space with lily pad rain features as well as the plant material in the Riverine Retention System.

Stormwater from the parking lot and dining hall roof will emerge from the pipe and flow into a series of retention cells. Each cell incorporates words into the weir construction to educate the public about the hydrologic processes occurring in the Riverine Retention System.

Soil Infiltration & Modeling Results In order to measure the soil hydraulic conductivity of the soils at the Alcorn State University site, a Mini Disk Infiltrometer (Decagon Devices, Inc.) test was performed on the Memphis Silt Loam soil (r=2.25 cm/s; suction: -5 cm/s) . The cumulative infiltration rate was calculated from the incremental results for the soil regression (R2 = 0.9972). According to the report and from the infiltration test performed on site, the soil type is Memphis Silt Loam, hydrologic soil group B with an infiltration rate of 1.5 in/hr. To determine the proper sizing for the bioretention zone in the Riverine Retention System, hydrologic analysis using the Santa Barbara Urban Hydrograph (SBUH) found the optimal area and depth, which informed design considerations. The modeling results found that an 8 in. depth was optimal for water retention as well as cost/feasabiity constraints (Table 1). The Bioretention area needed to manage the 95th percentile (2.25 in) at depth of 8 in. was 8,444 ft2. The bioretention area in our design is 10,000 ft2, thus allowing for retention of >95th percentile of average annual rainfall. Hydrologic modeling explored the efficacy of larger bioretention area depths and found minimal retention increases with 10, 12, and 14 in. depths.

As part of our Low Impact Development (LID) design, Best Management Practices (BMPs), including infiltration basins and portions of permeable pavement, will be used to mitigate stormwater runoff by storing it on-site. Water-tolerant vegetation will act to filter out pollutants, stabilize the soil, and provide wildlife habitat that enriches the experience for all visitors.

Hydrologic Modeling Peak flows compared across multiple conditions show the hydrologic effects of including the proposed retention basin in the design (Figure 1). With the addition of a bioretention basin, 100% of >95th percentile rain events will be infiltrated with no runoff leaving the site. Precipitation data were gathered from the nearest NOAA rain gauge located in Natchez, MS (Station ID 22-6177). This report describes the calculations and the assumptions made for 2.25 inches of rain (95th percentile) for a 24-hr storm event. To assess the difference from pre-existing to th post-development conditions, we used the Figure 1. Hydrograph of the modeled conditions for the 95 Santa Barbara Urban Hydrograph method percentile rain event. The yellow line demonstrates 100% infiltration for the managed condition. for modelling projected changes (Table 2). For the pre-existing condition, it was assumed that the pervious area was mainly grass cover (>75%) in good condition for a Curve Number (CN) of 61. The CN was used to calculate the potential maximum retention after runoff, S=6.39 inches, to ensure the initial abstraction (I a=1.22 in) was less than the precipitation (P= 2.25 in). The flow in the watershed is sheet flow; the sheet flow equation was used to calculate water travel which gives the required time of concentration. Time of concentration is the time traveled by the rainfall (primarily sheet flow) from the most remote point in the watershed to the outlet. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;nâ&#x20AC;? value or roughness Manningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coefficient used was 0.24 for grass. The same method was used to model hydrologic variables for developed conditions and post-development conditions (the design proposal). A summary of the maximum retention after runoff (S) is shown below (Table 3) as well as a summary of differences across pre-existing and post-developed conditions for multiple hydrologic variables.

Climate Change This design proposal has several aspects which mitigate the projected effects of climate change, such as higher frequency of drought and higher temperatures. Water- and drought-tolerant wetland perennial grasses will survive under extreme conditions and provide important carbon dioxide storage. Tree plantings on site (30 total) will absorb a maximum of 1,440 pounds of carbon dioxide per year (48 lbs/tree) once reaching maturity. It is expected that maximum carbon dioxide sequestration will happen four years after the planting of the trees; however, at least a third of the maximum sequestration can be achieved during the first year. Trees also cast shade which cools the air for visitors and provide cleaner air to breathe by releasing oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis. Maintenance
