|Bottom elevation (m)||This will be 0 for installations at ground level, but will often be underground. This is of greater importance when the overflow is coupled to another component within a treatment train

|colspan = 2|The Curves table is designed to accommodate ponds of roughly conical dimensions. Rainwater cistern are usually cuboid or cylindrical in shape, so that the area (m<sup>2</sup>) will remain the same throughout the depth. The top and bottom dimensions can be placed within the first two rows of the table.
