During day 2 of Greenbuild Expo, representatives from RMS, Water Storage Tanks, Inc., and Containment Solutions discussed with various professionals across multiple disciplines how rainwater harvesting could be an effective sustainable source of water for their facility as well as help manage stormwater runoff onsite.
Lisa from BizRoanoke interviewed Shawn Crawford, National Sales Manager at Rainwater Management Solutions in the city of Roanoke Virginia. Shawn is the national sales manager for the company. RMS recently moved into a new, bigger facility at 2550 Shenandoah Ave NW Roanoke, Virginia.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Florida has the largest concentration of freshwater springs in the world, but they are being devastated by increasing pollution and drastic declines in water flow. Some springs have dried up from overextraction; others have shown signs of saltwater intrusion and harmful algae blooms.
The facility is the former home of solar-panel manufacturer Solyndra, but Seagate purchased it in 2013 to house research and development projects. The facility has more than 62,000 square feet of roof area from which rainwater can be collected. With an average annual rainfall total of about 16 inches in Fremont, the facility has the potential to collect more than 580,000 gallons of rainwater each year (see Figure 1). Steven Deason, the Executive Director of Facilities for Seagate, wanted to reduce municipal supply-demand and create a sustainable environment for the software company’s research facility.

This is a 20,000-gallon rainwater harvesting system. They're using it for toilet flushing, laundry washing, irrigation. The customer loves the rainwater system because it actually saves him a lot of money, and he's done it on to other buildings, apartment complexes, in Blacksburg, Virginia.
Marty's had a system from us since 2011, he built a beautiful log house here on the mountain, and just wanted to let Marty fill us in a little bit on his experience with RMS and his rainwater system.
