Channels and drainage ditches need to be maintained to avoid obstruction and maintain flow. Maintenance of a drainage ditch means the physical preservation of the original, as-built configuration of the ditch. Protective measures such as soil stabilization using vegetation or rock on stream banks, slopes or ditches are also part of the these activities. Water quality management practices are needed to control potential pollution from disturbed soil, leaks and stockpiles, and from the release of pollutants such as sediment, litter, fuel, hydraulic fluid and oil.
Our typical maintenance contracts can include the following items:
- Provide site-specific reporting for private and public use
- Mow overgrown vegetation and clear debris, clear brush and trees
- Remove trash from catch basins and manholes (vacuum truck)
- Check structures, orifices, and pipes for blockages
- Monitor levels of sediment in ponds and structures
- Stabilize channels and stream banks
- Repairing Drainage Channel Erosion
