LID facilities have been demonstrated to function well throughout frozen periods of the year even when all components were fully frozen for some part of the year. [[Underdrain]] perforated pipes should be located below the frost line to reduce the threat of ice clogging. Ontario provincial standard drawings of frost penetration depth are available from the [https://www.library.mto.gov.on.ca/SydneyPLUS/TechPubs/Portal/tp/opsViews.aspx Ministry of Transportation] as OPSD 3090.100 for northern Ontario and OPSD 3090.101 for southern Ontario. [[Weirs]] are generally less prone to clogging from ice than [[orifices]] under all flow conditions, proprietary low flow devices are also available which are designed to mitigate clogging from ice or other solid debris.
