NC-v4 SSc4:Rainwater management

Rain water infiltration

Hello

Does the Rainwater Management credit and the OPTION 1. PERCENTILE OF RAINFALL EVENTS (Path 2. 98th Percentile) option require water infiltration? water retention in a landscaped basin is possible?

 

Thank you in advanec

Hi Marion, We tried water retention in an artificial pond, without infiltration. Water stored in the pond was slowly released to a nearby river. This strategy was declined by the reviewer arguing that rainwater must be infiltrated on site. I hope this helps to answer your question.
