Total life cycle cost estimates for an [[Rainwater harvesting|Underground Rainwater Cistern]], Non-Infiltrating configuration is ($92,343.04), making it one of the cheapest LID BMP options.<br>
Total life cycle cost estimates for an [[Rainwater harvesting|Underground Rainwater Cistern]], Non-Infiltrating configuration is ($41,448.47). <br>
It is notable that a sensitivity analysis was conducted in 2019 to compare construction cost estimates generated by the tool to actual costs of implemented projects. '''The analysis found that tool estimates were typically within ±14% of actual construction costs'''<ref>Credit Vally Conservation (CVC). 2019.
