The adoption of a broadly stated sustainability framework as the basis for the Overflow Control Plan (OCP) in Kansas City, Missouri is both extraordinary, and reflective of the community's commitment to become America's Green Region. The plan positions the city's wet weather program as a tool to catalyze more integrated water resource management at the neighborhood and watershed scales, and as a strategic initiative that supports sustainable development efforts at the metropolitan scale.
