Question

which of the following statements is/are true? i. the impervious surface of the parking lot captures runoff. ii. the stormwater planter can be installed in the parking lot for managing the runoff entering - into a watershed. iii. the porous surface does not allow the runoff to infiltrate underground.

Explanation:

• Statement I: Impervious surfaces like those of parking - lots prevent water from infiltrating and instead capture runoff, directing it elsewhere.
• Statement II: Stormwater planters can be installed in parking lots to manage runoff by allowing some water to infiltrate and be absorbed by plants, reducing the amount of runoff entering a watershed.
• Statement III: Porous surfaces are designed to allow runoff to infiltrate underground, so this statement is false.

Answer:

I and II
