Can I use the TOL variable to simulate ponded water?

A. No, the TOL value is a depth below which no computational routing is performed. The TOL variable is used so that the discharge routing algorithm is not performed on minor depths less than say 0.1 ft. A typical range of the TOL value is 0.1 to 0.25 ft. It should not be used to simulate storage ponding or rainfall abstraction.
