[[File:Aggregates Highway 7.jpg|thumb|The fines can clearly be seen on these piles of standard OPSS aggregates for road reconstruction]]
<onlyinclude>Of the standard granular materials in the standard [http://www.raqsb.mto.gov.on.ca/techpubs/ops.nsf/0/0b9aa4d966cac4f9852580820062909e/$FILE/OPSS.MUNI%201010%20Nov%2013.pdf OPSS.MUNI 1010] only '''Granular O''' is recommended as a substitute for [[reservoir aggregate| clear stone]] in LID construction.
{{Textbox|1= Where Granular O is substituted for clear stone in underground reservoir structures, the porosity used in design calculations shall be '''0.3''' unless laboratory testing proves otherwise.}}
Examples of BMPs with underground reservoirs include [[Underdrains]], [[infiltration trenches]], [[permeable pavements]], [[infiltration chambers]], [[exfiltration trenches]].
All other mixes must be avoided for free drainage or storage as they are permitted to contain a higher enough proportion of fines to reduce permeability below 50 mm/hr.

Porosity values were calculated based on the coefficient of uniformity (''C<sub>U</sub>'')<ref>Vuković, Milan and Soro, Andjelko Determination of hydraulic conductivity of porous media from grain-size composition.

<math>n=0.255\left ( 1+0.83^{C_{U}} \right )</math>
Where coefficient of uniformity is the ratio of the 60th and 10th percentile grain sizes:
<math>C_U=\frac{d_{60}}{d_{10}}</math>
Permeability (''K'') was estimated from the 10th percentile grain size using the [[Hazen]] formula.
