Stormwater System Repair

9/2/2020

 
Ever wonder why you see these large ponds close to residential developments and businesses?  Stormwater Basins, also known as retention ponds, are a the main line defense in the reduction of flash flooding.  They also help to reduce chemical runoff into our waterways.  Here's how it works...
Picture
During rainfall events, water from parking areas, roofs, and other impervious surfaces is routed to large ponds.  Over time, this water is slowly released to ditches or stormwater sewers which eventually travels its way to larger natural bodies of water.  This in turn, reduces large amounts of water overwhelming local infrastructure which often results in flooding by slowing the flow.  The Florida Panhandle has experienced tremendous growth over the last few decades and stormwater construction and management is vital to keep flooding minimal.

     Over time, sediment deposits buildup in the retention area which in turn results in  reduced capacity.  It is additionally difficult to mow and maintain stormwater retention areas once sediment buildup has begun.
