A brief description of the methodology/tool used to calculate the percentile local or regional rainfall events for which the institution manages runoff on-site using LID practices and green infrastructure:
Purdue University has conducted several iterations of storm sewer modeling using XP-SWPP software. The model for all campus drainage systems is calibrated against measured rainfall data and pipe flow rates, and the results are used to determine areas of need and focused stormwater management infrastructure. New development sites are required to comply with the University stormwater quality and quantity standards.

Percentile of local or regional rainfall events for which the institution manages runoff on-site using LID practices and green infrastructure:
