Constructed wetlands are shallow depressions that receive stormwater inputs for water quality treatment, are typically less than 1 foot deep, and possess variable microtopography to promote dense and diverse wetland cover.
Wet swales can provide runoff filtering and treatment within the conveyance system and are a cross between a wetland and a swale.
Bioretention creates a good environment for runoff reduction, filtration, biological uptake, and microbial activity, and provides high pollutant removal; bioretention can become an attractive landscaping feature with high amenity value and community acceptance.
