For practices with an underdrain in locations constrained in the vertical dimension, consider installing perforated pipe on the bottom of the storage reservoir and including a riser (saves the depth of aggregate needed to embed the pipe), and/or decreasing filter media depth (and plant types), ponding depth and/or catchment area.
