6.5.2 Rooftop runoff-capture & reuse
Capture and Reuse encompasses a wide variety of water storage techniques designed to “capture” precipitation, hold it for a period of time, and reuse the water. Heavy rainfall may require slow release over time. A water budget must be developed to ensure that the water will be used to allow for more runoff capture.
