* Design storm duration, D (h)
* Infiltration target for design storm event, I<sub>d</sub> (mm)
* Infiltration volume target for the design storm event, V<sub>i</sub> (m<sup>3</sup>), based on average annual water budgets for the catchment for pre- and post-development scenarios and the infiltration volume deficit (pre-development minus post-development infiltration)
* Drainage time t (h) to fully drain the active storage of the practice, based on provincial or municipal criteria or average inter-event period for the location
