 *//Use bioretention and other practices to increase infiltration// [[Bioretention device|Bioretention devices]] are engineered practices that use natural processes, including microbial soil processes, infiltration, and evapotranspiration to improve stormwater quality.  [[rain garden|Rain gardens]], often very attractive, are one type of practice commonly designed for residential lots to soak up rainwater from roofs, driveways, and lawns. [[infiltration trench|Rock trenches]] or rock beds can also be used as a conduit to more permeable layers with higher percolation rates. *//Use bioretention and other practices to increase infiltration// [[Bioretention device|Bioretention devices]] are engineered practices that use natural processes, including microbial soil processes, infiltration, and evapotranspiration to improve stormwater quality.  [[rain garden|Rain gardens]], often very attractive, are one type of practice commonly designed for residential lots to soak up rainwater from roofs, driveways, and lawns.

-=====Case Example: St. Fancis Addition to the Village of Cross Plains=====+=====Case Example: St. Francis Addition to the Village of Cross Plains=====
 The St. Francis Addition is a 72-acre, 80-lot subdivision in the Village of Cross Plains that demonstrates good site planning.  Brewery Creek, a cold-water community and a tributary to the cold-water community of Black Earth Creek, runs through the site.  During the site planning process, hydric soils to be avoided were mapped, as well as permeable soils where infiltration practices could be located.  A soil permeability analysis was prepared for the preliminary plat, identifying the ideal locations for infiltration practices. Following the site analysis, a site plan was prepared which incorporated the following practices: The St. Francis Addition is a 72-acre, 80-lot subdivision in the Village of Cross Plains that demonstrates good site planning.  Brewery Creek, a cold-water community and a tributary to the cold-water community of Black Earth Creek, runs through the site.  During the site planning process, hydric soils to be avoided were mapped, as well as permeable soils where infiltration practices could be located.  A soil permeability analysis was prepared for the preliminary plat, identifying the ideal locations for infiltration practices.
