*The applicable infiltration coefficient (''q'') is calculated by applying a [[Infiltration: Testing|safety factor to the measured infiltration rate]].

*Determine the impervious catchment area (''I''), and outline the location of the bioretention facility. To begin with, budget for at least 10% of the total catchment area to be required for the BMP. The area of the facility on the ground will be 'P' (pervious).
