Abstract
A method and system for collecting ground water segregated from storm water are provided in which an existing storm sewer pipe may be retrofitted by forming a ground water channel and a storm water channel therein. The two channels may be formed by disposing a lining within the existing pipe which segregates the pipe into two distinct flow passageways. A new pipe may also be similarly used for collection of ground water.
