Note that narrow, linear bioretention features drain faster than round or blocky footprint geometries.
Note that narrow, linear bioretention features drain faster than round or blocky footprint geometries.
*Begin the drainage time calculation by dividing the area of the practice (''A<sub>p</sub>'') by the perimeter (''P'').
*Begin the drainage time calculation by dividing the area of the practice (''A<sub>p</sub>'') by the perimeter (''P'').

To
estimate the time (''t'') to fully drain the facility:
*
Use the following equation to
estimate the time (''t'') to fully drain the facility:
:<math>t=\frac{V_{R}A_{p}}{f'P}ln\left [ \frac{\left (d_{T}+ \frac{A_{p}}{P} \right )}{\left(\frac{A_{p}}{P}\right)}\right]</math>
:<math>t=\frac{V_{R}A_{p}}{f'P}ln\left [ \frac{\left (d_{T}+ \frac{A_{p}}{P} \right )}{\left(\frac{A_{p}}{P}\right)}\right]</math>
