Bioretention System Overview Functionality Bioretention systems are used to remove a wide range of pollutants, such as suspended solids, nutrients, metals, hydrocarbons, and bacteria from stormwater runoff. They can also be used to reduce peak runoff rates and increase stormwater infiltration when designed as a multistage, multi-function facility. A bioretention system can be configured as either a bioretention basin or a longer, narrower bioretention swale. In general, a bioretention basin has a flat bottom while a bioretention swale may have sloping bottom. Runoff storage depths above the soil bed surface are typically shallow. The TSS removal rate for bioretention systems is 80 or 90 percent, depending upon the thickness of the soil planting bed and the type of vegetation grown in the bed. Proper care and attention in the long-term maintenance of the stormwater management measure is critically important to the safety and health of the public. Type of BMP – Dry Basin / Infiltration A bioretention system is a type of dry basin. Dry basins must fully drain within 72 hours of the most recent rainfall. Standing water in excess of 72 hours is a sign of basin failure. It may also contribute to mosquito breeding and other health and safety issues. The design drain time shall be closely monitored to ensure that potential failure is recognized early. A bioretention system with infiltration can also be designed for extended detention, in which case it will attenuate peak flows from storms larger than the Water Quality Design Storm.
