Abstract

An underground stormwater storage system. The underground stormwater storage system may comprise a porous backfill, a plurality of solid pipes disposed within the porous backfill, wherein the solid pipes are disposed with a gap between each of the plurality of solid pipes, and an inlet pipe disposed in at least one of the plurality of solid pipes.

Abstract

A system and method for an underground stormwater storage system which may comprise a pit, a structure, and a liner. The structure may be disposed within the center of the pit and surround by the porous backfill and wherein outlets are disposed on the crown of the structure. A liner may form the outer layer of the pit. A method for releasing stormwater may comprise capturing stormwater from a surface, containing the stormwater within a structure, releasing a volume of the stormwater from the structure and draining an additional volume of the stormwater from the crown of the structure from an outlet when the structure is capturing more stormwater than it is releasing.
