What's the question? There's all different slopes. I've seen some that are practically flat - depends on the area usually. I believe here sewer has to be a minimum of 1%. But I don't think there is a minimum with storm drain - as long as it has SOME fall. Probably depens on your area, and if youre just doing it for yourself then that's definitely all that matters I would think.
