• Impervious surfaces produce higher runoff rates, volume and duration of large flows

Sizing Conclusions for Sizing Conclusions for ImplementationImplementationSizing Conclusions for Sizing Conclusions for ImplementationImplementation
• IMPs in Group D soil sites are generally smaller than Group A soil BMPs
• Steep side walls produce smaller sizing factors
• Sizing factor may be particularly important for on-site BMPs
• Swales and Bioretention basin footprint may be less important if BMPs fit into otherwise undeveloped space

• Encourage LID to control stormwater flows
• HMP is technically rigorous and easy to apply
• Assumes need to match pre-project condition

Instructions for Computing Local Instructions for Computing Local Sizing Factors Sizing Factors Instructions for Computing Local Instructions for Computing Local Sizing Factors Sizing Factors
1. Describe each DMA on the project site, including area, soil type, post-project surface type
2. For DMA's draining to IMPs, select an IMP and configuration (e.g. swale width, dry well depth)
3. Pick the appropriate sizing factor from the summary sizing factor table (see handout)
4. Compute the rainfall adjustment using the regression equations (see handout)
5. Local sizing factor = Sizing Factor x RainAdj
