Research on the volumetric runoff reduction performance of permeable pavements have been conducted on pavements with and without an underdrain in the base.  Volumetric performance improves when: 
 +
* Native soils have high infiltration capacity.
 +
* Impervious surface draining onto the permeable pavement is limited or absent.
 +
* Underdrain is elevated above the native soil and/or a flow restrictor is installed on the underdrain.
 +
 +
All permeable pavements have very high surface infiltration rates when appropriately maintained.  Therefore, the surface course type (i.e. PICP, pervious concrete) is not a key factor in determining volumetric runoff reduction performance.
