* Step 5: Sum total depth of bioretention components, and compare to available depth between the surface grade and the seasonally high water table or top of bedrock elevations. Adjust component depths to maintain a separation of at least 0.6 metres between base of the practice and seasonally high water table or top of bedrock elevation.
