The target [[drawdown time]] for the internal storage of an infiltration facility is typically between 48 and 72 hours. <br>

For some geometries (e.g. particularly deep facilities or linear facilities), it preferable to account for lateral infiltration.

The 3D equation make use of the hydraulic radius (''A<sub>p''/''x''), where ''x'' is the perimeter (m) of the facility. <br>
