    I am working on a project where a previous phases pond's outflow is controlled by a flow control manhole, which outlets into an existing basin.

    Drywells?

    Is there a way to place drywells as an outflow structure of a pond? Here we are required to place the rim of drywells 0.5' above the bottom of pond elevation.
