File:Screenshot 2025-09-22 120027.png|800px|thumb|left|This hybrid trench and bioretention system combines flood protection with water quality and water balance benefits. Active storage above the underdrain provides channel and flood control, while infiltration below the underdrain improves water quality and maintains water balance. The underdrain is positioned close to the trench bottom to maximize storage capacity and may be fitted with an orifice to regulate release rates, ensuring full use of storage even during the 100-year event. Because infiltration rates increase with hydraulic head, this design can achieve higher volume reduction than conventional LID practices not intended for flood control. Inlets consist of a distributed network of curb cuts connected to high-flow cobble/gravel columns (about 1 × 2 m). A similar concept can also be applied using stormwater chambers or underground infiltration trenches.
