Line 19:
Line 19: − − Infiltration facilities and low impact development practices (such as [[bioretention]] and [[rainwater harvesting]]) are typically designed to manage more frequent and lower magnitude rainfall events. However, should these practices be designed for year round functionality, with sufficient flood storage capacity, the volume reductions associated with these practices will be recognized where the local municipality has endorsed the use of these practices and has considered long term operations and maintenance.

In order to protect downstream properties from flooding due to upstream development, Conservation Authorities establish flood control for future SWM planning through regularly updated of Hydrologic Studies and Subwatershed-level Stormwater Management Studies that characterize flood flow rates, define the location and extent of Flood Damage Centers and assess the potential impact of further urbanization.
