What Are Stormwater Management Systems?
A stormwater management system might include a range of stormwater control strategies. Ponds are used to manage rainwater in many neighborhoods and business sectors. Pond inspections are generally required on an annual basis and can be classified into three types:
-
Retention Ponds are man-made body of water that collects and filters stormwater runoff. It allows enormous amounts of water to enter while releasing little amounts as needed.
​
-
Detention Ponds are shallow basins with a modest slope that directs water from the inflow to the outlet. They are often dry until it rains.
​
-
Underground Detention System are designed to provide water quantity control through underground detention of stormwater runoff.
