Why Retention?
On sites where soils drain well and the water table is low enough, a stormwater infiltration, or recharge, system may be the most economical means for managing runoff. Unlike detention systems, which typically discharge runoff from a single outlet pipe, infiltration systems allow accumulated runoff water to percolate into the subsoil. Water quality is usually improved through the soil’s natural filtering ability. Infiltration systems can also minimize water table reductions.
- Provides an efficient underground groundwater recharge system.
- Often meets detention requirements on a site.
- Provides a cost effective method for groundwater recharge, stream baseflow restoration and reduced peak surface water discharges.
