Infiltration Practices (1632 words)
Infiltration facilities are thought to be potentially the most effective type of BMP for treating polluted stormwater since the soil can be an efficient treatment medium to filter out fecal bacteria, and since soluble heavy metals, phosphorus, and some organic compounds tend to be retained by soil minerals.
Infiltration basins are water impoundments lined with relatively permeable soils and made by excavation or by construction of dams or embankments.
Infiltration basins are designed to temporarily store surface runoff water for a selected design storm or runoff volume, and to increase ground water recharge through infiltration of stored water into the surrounding soil.
