The City of Cape Canaveral, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, and Stetson University, along with city and county partners are working on a solution to help stop flooding and improve water quality in Cape Canaveral.
Researchers say plans include designing and building special channels called bioswales that to redirect stormwater that would cause flooding.
Native, water-friendly plants will also be planted to store and to treat a lot of the stormwater that otherwise is running down the street and would go off into the lagoon.
