• % Imperviousness (assume 65%)

• Rainfall Depth/ESD Runoff Depth

• QE = PE*Rv 0r ~1.24”

• Post Cn > Pre and PE>1 inch so calc Cpv

• Approx 0.4 inch depth over surface so if 30 acres then 4,500 cf

Virginia Key Points

Maryland Key Points

• Redevelopment (Assume 40% imperviousness):• Reduce Impervious area by 50% or,• ESD/LID for wq for 50% or,• ESD and reduction for 50%

• OR• On-site structural or,• Off-site structural for 50% or, • Or Combination

• OR• Retrofit off-site• Stream restoration• Trading• Planning

• AND… • Implement ESD for NET INCREASE in impervious areas
