cutntrim is an unknown quantity at this point
I'll be doing something similar at a customer's house soon. They're the last house on the street and by the time the runoff from the swale running along the backyards reaches them, it's a rushing river.

The neighbour has a raised garden along the back with weeping tile running the length then daylighting under my customer's fence. I'm gonna tie into that pipe and run it to the catch basin at the far end of the yard. I'm only planning on using potato stones to cover the pipe though. Dry creek beds aren't naturally found in the middle of suburban backyards here so I'm not worried about the uniformity of the stones.
