Offsite Basin
An offsite basin is a basin outside the project basin that drains through the project site to the project mitigation pond.
Bypass Basin
A bypass basin is a basin that is in the project site, but does not drain to the project mitigation pond.
Sand Filter
A sand filter is a water quality facility that is required to filter 91% of the total runoff volume.
LID Modeling
• Lateral flow basins/Impervious runoff dispersion.
• Rain gardens.
• Green roofs.
• Porous pavement.
Impervious Runoff Dispersion Modeling
Dispersion of impervious roof runoff on adjacent pervious lawn allowing some water to infiltrate before becoming stormwater runoff.
Lateral Flow Basins
Lateral flow basins allow the lateral flow from an impervious drainage basin to flow across a pervious drainage basin. Total runoff is reduced.
Bioretention/Rain Gardens
Rain garden/bioretention/landscape swale
Water infiltrates into the soil before runoff.
Bioretention/Rain Gardens
Bioretention swale/rain garden is a stormwater mitigation facility. It stores and infiltrates runoff.
Green Roof Modeling
Green/vegetated/eco-roof
Water is stored in the soil prior to runoff.
Green Roofs
Green roof (also called a eco-roof or vegetated roof) is a stormwater mitigation facility on the roof of a building.
Porous Pavement Modeling
Currently represented by the gravel trench bed element.
Gravel Trench Bed/Porous Pavement
Gravel trench bed is a stormwater mitigation facility; it can also be used to represent porous pavement.
Other WWHM3 Features
• Culverts / HY8 program
• Time series
• Criteria checker
• Water tags
• LID Analysis Tool
• Summary Report
Culverts/HY8
Culverts are conveyance facilities. The Federal Highway Administration HY8 program can be used to define the culvert’s hydraulics (optional).
Time Series
Time series is a flow or precip period of record from another WDM to be used as input to the project.
Criteria Checker
Criteria checker checks to set if certain user-defined flow criteria are exceeded at a specified POC.
Water Tags
Water tags are used to track the movement of water from a specific source through the conveyance system.
LID Analysis ToolLID Analysis Tool compares different development options selected by the user and shows the runoff distribution.
Summary ReportSummary Report provides a detailed summary of the project input information.
