Stormwater Detention Pond - Inlet Maintenance Photos

Photo shows the inlet to the pond during maintenance.  A vacuum truck was used to remove accumulated sediment.

Maintenance actions for stormwater detention ponds may range from unclogging outlet structures to excavation of the pond surface.  In this example, the maintenance that was needed was to dig out one of the inlets and replace the riprap. 

Photo shows the inlet area after maintenance.  New riprap was installed.  Maintenance complete!
