Exfiltration Trench
2
Purpose of Exfiltration
  • Encourage return of storm runoff to the groundwater
  • Reduce the hydraulic load on the minor
    (e.g. piped) system
  • Improve quality of runoff by removal of some particulate matter
  • Reduce thermal impact on the runoff
  • Split inflow hydrograph into two components of Outflow and Groundwater recharge
