==Sub-surface components==
Most LID practices use sub-surface features--gravel storage reservoirs, liners, underdrains, monitoring wells, etc. The construction process for sub-surface components works from the ground up. While some LID practices include all the sub-surface components listed below, most designs will not include one or more of these layers. Permeable pavements can have different construction requirements at this stage, mostly regarding compaction of sub-surface layers. '''Installing infiltration chambers also requires guidance specific to that LID type.'''
