The Squalicum Water Quality Retrofit Phase 2 project represents the city's ongoing efforts to improve water quality in Little Squalicum Creek, which flows through the Birchwood neighborhood. These types of environmental infrastructure projects are typically required to meet state and federal clean water standards, protecting both aquatic habitat and downstream water quality. The installation of biopods and enhanced stormwater treatment systems helps filter pollutants from urban runoff before it reaches the creek.
