Our first target is bioretention, which hasn't been over-hauled in more than a decade, despite a flood of new research and a lot of anecdotal reports on installation problems. So I took a first crack at the next generation of bioretention design specifications. In doing so, however, I discovered a bunch of gaps that you could help fill. So here are a dozen questions about perfecting bioretention:
