    This document provides runoff coefficients categorized by surface and land use to estimate stormwater runoff for rational method calculations. Runoff coefficients range from 0.059-0.95 depending on the surface material, with higher runoff occurring from materials like asphalt, concrete, and roofing compared to lawns and forests. Coefficients also vary based on land use from 0.05-0.4 for residential, parks, and farmland to 0.5-0.9 for business districts and industrial areas.
