^aData based on fewer than five monitoring studies
^bExcludes vertical sand filters and filter strips
^cFiltration values used
^dNote that 100% is assumed for all infiltration, but only for that portion of the flow fully treated in the infiltration facility; by-passed runoff does not receive any treatment.
