Sand Filter Maintenance Requirements
Important maintenance procedures:
- The drainage area will be carefully managed to reduce the sediment load to the sand filter.
- The sedimentation chamber or forebay will be cleaned out whenever sediment depth exceeds six inches.
- Once a year, sand media will be skimmed.
- The sand filter media will be replaced whenever it fails to function properly after maintenance.
The sand filter shall be inspected quarterly and within 24 hours after every storm event greater than 1.0 inches (or 1.5 inches
if in a Coastal County). Records of operation and maintenance will be kept in a known set location and will be available upon
request.
Inspection activities shall be performed as follows. Any problems that are found shall be repaired immediately.

Wet Detention Pond Maintenance Requirements
The wet detention basin system is defined as the wet detention basin, pretreatment including forebays and the vegetated filter if
one is provided.
Important maintenance procedures:
Immediately after the wet detention basin is established, the plants on the vegetated shelf and perimeter of the
basin should be watered twice weekly if needed, until the plants become established (commonly six weeks).
No portion of the wet detention pond should be fertilized after the first initial fertilization that is required to
establish the plants on the vegetated shelf.
Stable groundcover should be maintained in the drainage area to reduce the sediment load to the wet detention
basin.
If the basin must be drained for an emergency or to perform maintenance, the flushing of sediment through the
emergency drain should be minimized to the maximum extent practical.
- Once a year, a dam safety expert should inspect the embankment.
After the wet detention pond is established, it should be inspected once a month and within 24 hours after every storm event
greater than 1.0 inches (or 1.5 inches if in a Coastal County). Records of operation and maintenance should be kept in a
known set location and must be available upon request.
Inspection activities shall be performed as follows. Any problems that are found shall be repaired immediately.
