Water scarcity is one of the biggest problems in the world. Besides water scarcity, reaching
clean water is also a serious issue for some countries. To be able to fight against these
difficulties, engineers have been working on significant improvements on implemented
projects. Among these, low impact development (LID) best management practices (BMPs) are
one of the most popular implementations recently. LIDs are referred to as nature-based
solutions that can control the quality and the quantity of stormwater runoff. LIDs consist of
different practices such as rain barrels, green roofs, permeable pavement, vegetative swale, and
bioretention. The infiltration trench, which is the focus of this study, is among these practices.
The infiltration trench consists of a rectangular ditch, filled with gravel, and has permeable soil
around. In this study, the modeling performance of EPA SWMM of infiltration trenches is
evaluated by comparing the modeling results with the experimental data. Results show that the
experimental measurements are in good agreement with the EPA SWMM output.
Keywords: infiltration trench, low impact development (LID), EPA SWMM, green
infrastructure.
