For practices where flow is delivered to the filter media bed:
<math>A_{p}=i\times D\times A_{i}/((d_{a} + (f_{m, min} \times D))
{{Plainlist|1=Where:
*i = Design storm intensity (mm/h)
*D = Design storm duration (h)
*A<sub>i</sub> = Catchment impervious area (m<sup>2</sup>)
*f<sub>m, min</sub> = minimum infiltration rate of the filter media (mm/h)
