A Field Study}, volume={138}, ISSN={["0733-9372"]}, DOI={10.1061/(asce)ee.1943-7870.0000575}, abstractNote={AbstractForty-three bioretention cells (BRCs) throughout North Carolina were assessed for maintenance needs, soil media composition, and as-built surface storage volume to determine whether BRCs are typically constructed per their intended design specifications. Visual inspections identified hydric soils and redoximorphic features (indicators of prolonged anaerobic conditions) and quantified the occurrence of issues requiring maintenance. Particle-size distribution and permeability of soil media were measured at multiple locations within each cell, and topographic surveys were performed to calculate as-built surface storage volumes. Field drawdown tests were used to verify permeability measurements and assess overall BRC function. Of the studied cells, 22% contained redoximorphic features in the upper 30 cm, and 53% were in need of maintenance due to one or more factors. Although 71% of assessed cells failed to meet soil media particle-size distribution specifications, 98% of BRCs contained media with ade...}, number={12}, journal={JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING-ASCE}, author={Wardynski, Brad J. and Hunt, William F., III}, year={2012}, month={Dec}, pages={1210–1217} } @article{nejadhashemi_wardynski_munoz_2012, title={Large-scale hydrologic modeling of the Michigan and Wisconsin agricultural regions to study impacts of land use changes}, volume={55}, number={3}, journal={Transactions of the ASABE}, author={Nejadhashemi, A.
