Buildup/Washoff from a Subcatchment in SWMM 5

Subject:  Buildup/Washoff from a Subcatchment in SWMM 5

A pollutant concentration from a subcatchment in SWMM 5 can come from the precipitation, event mean concentration (EMC) in the washoff, rating curve washoff as a function of the surface runoff or power/exponential washoff from pollutants built up on the  land surface.  The pollutant washoff is mixed in the node and links for the network and can undergo first order decay, BMP or LID removal and  CSTR mixing.
