* Operation and maintenance (O&M) cost estimates assume annual inspections, removal of trash and debris twice a year, removal of sediment from pretreatment structures annually. Verification inspections are included every 5 years to confirm adequate maintenance, and every 15 years to confirm adequate drainage performance through in-situ trench water level monitoring during natural storm events.

* Length to width ratio of infiltration trench area recommended from facilities receiving road or parking lot runoff is 10:1.
* Should be set back at least four (4) metres from building foundations.
+
* Hydrodynamic (oil and grit) separator included upstream of trench to provide pretreatment.
* Overflow pipes should discharge to pervious areas located at least 2m from building foundations and slope away from building or to a storm sewer.

* Default filter media depth of 1.0 metres to accommodate trees in planting plan.
  −
* Trench bottom width is generally between 0.60 and 2.4 metres.
  −
* Default maximum depth of 3 - 4 metres, as there are cost implications with using trench boxes to retain the side walls.
  −
* An underdrain (300 mm diameter perforated pipe) is included in Partial Infiltration & Full Infiltration design configurations.
