Wetland A: Please provide the surface areas for the forebay, high marsh, low marsh and micropool. Also, it appears that the orifice is slightly oversized and will result in a drawdown that is under two days. 2. Wetland B: According to the current version of the DWQ Stormwater BMP Manual, the drainage area for an extended detention wetland must be at least ten acres. In order to bring this part of the project into compliance, the flow to this BMP could be combined with the flow to another proposed extended detention wetland on the site.
