[[File:construction process.jpg|400px|thumb|right|The five-step construction process for sub-surface and ground-level LIDs.]]
The [[construction]] guidance in this section applies to all sub-surface and ground-level LID practices: [[bioretention|bioretention gardens]], [[bioswales]], [[rain gardens]], [[exfiltration trenches]], [[enhanced swales]], [[permeable pavements]], [[infiltration trenches]], [[infiltration chambers]], and [[soakaways]]. In general, this section describes construction and inspection processes for below ground installed materials and infrastructure that are part of the LID practices noted above.

In LID facilities, a choker layer of ≥ 100 mm depth is recommended to prevent migration of finer filter media into the underlying storage reservoir aggregate. Similar to the storage reservoir material, this aggregate layer should be a washed 5 – 10 mm stone free from fines and debris. Installation of aggregate choker layer should not be done when frozen.
Follow the construction guidance shown above in the section [[Sub-surface components#Storage reservoir|Storage reservoir]]
