Through the SAM funding process, supported by Western Washington permittees, our team has been conducting hydrologic monitoring, infiltration studies, plant community development, and modeling comparison of ten newly designed and built bioretention projects throughout the Puget Sound Basin.

We will present our recently compiled findings and recommendations to jurisdictions for improved design plan review, inspection, and expected bioretention performance. These findings will cover actual measured field results from:

  • Hydrologic response
  • Infiltration studies
  • Bioretention media composition
  • Plant community composition and survival
  • Comparison of measured hydrology to modeled predictions
    using the new WWHM 2012 Bioretention Module
