Layer name: RD_FACILITYSubject category: utilityTitle: RD Facility maintained by King County Roads DivisionFeature Count: 41Feature Type: PointAbstract: Retention or detention pond is a Flow Control (FC) facility. It is an infiltration system specifically designed to capture, store and then slowly release stormwater runoff downstream or into the ground. A detention pond stores accumulated stormwater runoff and slowly releases it downstream. A flow control structure regulates the release rate of the stored water. Some detention ponds are combined with water quality treatment ponds (i.e., wetponds) which are intended to have some water in them on a permanent basis. A retention or infiltration pond collects stormwater and allows the water to soak into the soil. This infiltration process helps recharge groundwater.Purpose: Shows location of Retention Detention facilities maintained by King County Roads Division.Status: Updated: Time period of content: (single date,as YYYYMMDD):: Time period of content: (date range, as YYYYMMDD):: - Spatial reference: WA State Plane NorthFGDC Documentation: Classic or FAQOpen Data Availability: Not AvailablePlace Keywords: Pacific NW, King County, WA, Washington state, Theme Keywords: Transportation, utility, conflation, Road Network Inventory System, RNIS, RoadsGIS, transportation, Lineage: Not available
