Water Quality Treatment Process

This section describes the system’s basic mechanisms for water quality treatment. All systems evaluated at the UNHSC field site have an impermeable liner so that researchers can provide a strict accounting of the stormwater runoff flowing through the systems, as well as the contaminants it contains. The diagrams in this section reflect how these systems would manage stormwater runoff in practice, and therefore do not depict a system lining.
