Schematic showing an infiltration trench, which is one of several stormwater control practices designed to infiltrate stormwater runoff. Infiltration practices capture stormwater runoff and allow it to infiltrate into the underlying soil.

This page contains links to several pages that address infiltration of stormwater runoff.
