Typical contributing drainage areas are between 150 to 300 m<sup>2</sup> per tree, with a recommended maximum of 450 m<sup>2</sup> per tree. For optimal performance recommended ratios of impervious drainage area to pervious facility footprint area (I:P area ratio) range from 5:1 on low permeability soils (HSG C and D) to 15:1 on high permeability soils (HSG A and B).
