PondPack--Do the infiltration losses take into account ground water mounding, ground saturation, or underground water table elevations?
HS1122009-

Solution

The infiltration options are only estimates, and do not take into account items such as ground water mounding, ground saturation, or underground water table elevations. Also, the engineer should be aware that the infiltration characteristics might change significantly with each storm event, due to cloggage of the pore space in the soil.
