Cost-benefit considerations for Infiltration trench Revision as of 19:51, 18 March 2013 by PLeegar (talk | contribs) (→Construction and Maintenance Costs)
Construction and Maintenance Costs
The Integrated stormwater management section outlines a cost estimation method which site planners could use to compare the relative construction and maintenance costs for structural best management practices. These curves are excellent for purposes of comparison; however, it is recommended that construction and maintenance budgets should be based on site specific information. Utilizing the table below and the cost estimation worksheet, will allow designers to avoid over or under estimation of fixed costs.
The table below lists the specific site components that are specific to infiltration practices. Not included in this table are those cost items that are common to all construction projects, such as mobilization, traffic control, erosion and sediment control, permitting, etc.
