Green infrastructure collects stormwater from streets, sidewalks, and other hard surfaces before it can enter the sewer system or cause local flooding. By reducing the amount of stormwater that flows into the Sewer System, green infrastructure helps prevent Sewer Overflows and improves the health of local waterways. Green infrastructure protects New York Harbor and reduces local flooding.

These GI projects are located in Brooklyn and Queen and consisted of designing and implementing 2,000 GI Practices. Mr. Al Arag, while at Dewberry Engineers Inc, has managed, worked on, and contributed to these Green Infrastructure projects in New York in 2014-2022 for NYCDEP, NYCEDC, and NCDDC.
