Stormwater Quantity Controls Sample Clauses

Stormwater Quantity Controls. The intent of stormwater quantity control facilities is to slow down stormwater flow discharged to the environment from developed sites. Impervious surfaces, such as roads and roofs, quicken the rate of stormwater runoff into natural streams that can create flooding. Stormwater quantity control facilities mitigate the increased runoff by providing temporary storage and controlling the release rate from the site to prevent flooding and erosion. Detention and retention facilities may be designed as ponds or underground facilities. Detention facilities function by providing temporary storage of stormwater runoff to be released at a controlled rate. The intent of the detention facility is to match the pre-developed runoff rates for several specific storm events in the developed condition. Retention facilities are typically located in areas where water soaks easily into the ground. Retention facilities provided temporary storage while allowing the water to soak into the ground, mimicking natural conditions. There is typically no release of stormwater to other pipes offsite or water bodies.
