+ You, Me, and The Bay: Undergraduate Opportunities in AGNR Jason Wong

+ Rain Gardens

+

+ The Project Incentives and Hurdles to the Adoption of Rain Gardens in Maryland What factors affect people’s decision to install a rain garden? Awareness? Neighborhood effects? Financial incentives? Aesthetics? Care for the Bay? Feasibility?

+ Questions faced How can we obtain information on people’s preferences? How much do we care to help restore the Bay? How much are we willing to pay? What kinds of policies and incentive structures can we design to increase behavior, such as installing rain gardens, that helps the Bay?

+ Survey Study in Howard County UMD Extension + Columbia Association + Chesapeake Bay Trust Optimal incentive structure + factors in people’s willingness to install rain gardens 20,000 + Surveys to be administered in Howard Country

+ Why is this important? Informing Chesapeake Bay policy Choosing effective incentive structures Columbia’s RG cost share offerings, for instance Increasing Bay-friendly behavior like rain gardens, other Low Impact Development Meeting Bay TMDL goals
