To decrease A<sub>p</sub>, consider increasing ponding depth if feasible and would not create a safety hazard, or decreasing catchment impervious area.

* Step 12:  Calculate catchment impervious area to practice permeable (footprint) area ratio, R and compare to recommended range in the table above
