Q. 1.31 CAC August meeting - Did you make a prediction in advance about the results?

A. Yes. We estimated peak flows of 3 to 5 gallons per minute per house – the same estimate made at the outset of the Footing Drain Disconnection program. This value is consistent with generally accepted standards for peak flows from footing drains. It should be noted that this is an accepted peak flow rate averaged over many houses. For any individual house, the actual peak flow from the footing drain can vary significantly
