1. A stormwater control system for controlling stormwater passing through an impervious surface to infiltration zone soil, wherein there is compacted fill material between the impervious surface and the infiltration zone soil, wherein a surface area size of the infiltration zone soil below the compacted fill is substantially equivalent to a surface area size of the impervious surface above the compacted fill, the control system comprising: a. one or more standpipes in fluid communication with the impervious surface for receiving stormwater runoff from the impervious surface, wherein the one or more standpipes extend through the compacted soil fill material; and b. means for transferring the stormwater from the one or more standpipes to the infiltration zone soil in a manner that disperses the stormwater substantially throughout the infiltration zone soil.
