Which storm water inlet connection is most appropriate for a site?

The most appropriate storm water inlet connection for a site is the one located at the site's lowest elevation. This is because water naturally flows downhill due to gravity, so placing the inlet at the lowest point facilitates efficient drainage and collection of storm water runoff. By directing water towards the inlet at this location, it minimizes the potential for ponding or flooding in other areas of the site, ensuring that there is an effective system in place to manage excess water.

This approach not only helps to control erosion and manage storm water effectively but also aligns with best practices in drainage design, which aim to mitigate the impact of heavy rainfall and prevent water-related issues on the site. Inlet B’s positioning capitalizes on these principles, leading to improved storm water management.
