Monitoring wells are frequently installed on infiltrating systems such as bioretention, bioswales, infiltration trenches and hybrids thereof. The two questions most frequently addressed are:

  1. How quickly is surface ponding being infiltrated beneath the surface?
  2. How quickly is the facility draining through exfiltration to native soils and/or through an underdrain?
  • Where possible, wells for measuring water levels within permeable pavement systems should be outside of trafficked areas.
