Where Clean Water Meets Community: Showcasing Innovation at the Wetlands at Long’s Park
Join Angela Brackbill for a look beneath the surface of The Wetlands at Long’s Park – the Grand Prize-winning project of the 2025 Best Urban BMP in the Bay (BUBBAs) awards. This webinar will explore how the City of Lancaster transformed Long’s Park’s aging pond and stormwater challenges into an innovative natural treatment system that captures and treats over 16 million gallons of stormwater and recirculated pond water annually, significantly reducing nutrient and sediment pollution while enhancing habitat and public amenities. Webinar attendees will learn about the innovative design components that made this project stand apart, from floating wetland islands and an iron-enhanced media filter to constructed marshes and interpretive walkways and hear firsthand how thoughtful public engagement and education were woven into a project that serves both community and watershed health.
Speaker:
Angela Brackbill is the Stormwater Program Manager for the City of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. She is a graduate of Pennsylvania State University, holding a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering, specializing in environmental engineering.
