Since it is a local jurisdic?on, you will need to check with them to see what they are willing to accept.

Generally speaking, some fluctua?on in the permanent pool can be acceptable, however if the infiltra?on rate is
impac?ng the permanence of the permanent pool or impac?ng the vegetated shelf plan?ngs, then the SCM is not
func?oning properly.

Thank you Jim.

I tried to call you the other day with a ques?on. I spoke to a lady in your dept. and she was going to do some research
but have not heard back. My ques?on was do you guys have a rule of thumb for the infiltra?on rate tolerance for a wet
pond. The State manual used to specify 0.01”/hr. but has removed this criteria based on my research. I have a pond that
I am trying to cer?fy that is draining down at 1”/day which is basically 0.04”/hr. This is not a cert for the State but for a
local Municipality. Have reached out to a colleague of mine Bill Hunt but I think he maybe out of the Country. I have also
thought about calling Anne?e Lucas to see if she knows of any infiltra?on tolerance.

Thanks,

Kaitlin,
I see what you are talking about. We do show leader lines over to the wetland areas but they are not defined in detail
and especially the wetland areas that will be recorded with phase 1 and protected.

Will send out today.
