The following equation assumes that infiltration occurs primarily through the footprint of the facility.

The following equation assumes that infiltration occurs primarily through the footprint of the facility.

It is best applied to calculate the limited duration ponding on the surface of [[bioretention cells]], [[bioswales]] and [[enhanced grass swales]].  

It is best applied to calculate the maximum duration ponding on the surface of [[bioretention cells]], [[bioswales]] and [[enhanced grass swales]] to ensure it will drain within 48 hours.  

To calculate the time (''t'') to fully drain the facility through the footprint area only:
