*Water balance/Erosion Control – Retention of 5 mm event on-site

'''Stormwater Strategy'''
Large portion of the roof proposed as green roof and cistern proposed in underground parking to capture remaining volume to meet 5 mm target. Water to be used for irrigation and carwash stations.

Quality target achieved as majority of site is ‘clean’ roof water or directed to pervious area. Underground storage tank provided to satisfy municipal release rates to receiving storm sewer system.

*Final design required both LIDs to reduce the overall runoff volumes, but also sub-surface storage chambers to provide quantity control to meet municipal requirements.

Due to underground parking limited opportunities for infiltration LIDs but used green roof to promote evapotranspiration, and cistern to reduce runoff volumes.
