Hello Bentley,

While designing pipes for storm water drainage. I found my HGL are way above than pipe elevation.Does it impact the design?

If yes, then how can I lower the HGL.I have to layout the pipes at least 6.5 ft belowimage from the rim but not to deep.

Please, find the following screenshot.

Thanks.
