II. Site Information
This manual contains the inspection and maintenance criteria for the proposed Carey Grove
Park Rehabilitation. The project is located on Carey Road between Hawthorne Drive West
and Driftwood Drive in the City of Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana. For reference, the
project site is located at approximately latitude 39° 59’ 32” N and longitude 86° 06’ 28” W.
The proposed project includes the construction of a new playground area, basketball court,
parking area, two infiltration trenches, and a dry detention area.
Stormwater runoff from the development will be collected and conveyed natural grading. The
stormwater runoff will convey to two infiltration basins. Once stormwater runoff is treated in
the infiltration basins, stormwater will then be conveyed to dry detention area. From the dry
detention are, the stormwater runoff will be conveyed north, offsite, where it will ultimately be
collected into the existing stormwater sewer system.
III. Inlet Maintenance
Inlets, Catch Basins and Manholes
Inspect inlet castings monthly and after each rainfall event. More frequent inspections should
be performed in areas where there is higher potential for trash or litter and during the fall
when leaves are present on the ground.
Inspect structures (including sumps and gas hoods) two times per year (preferably in spring
and fall) to ensure that the all components are working in their intended fashion and that they
are free of debris. Clean structures when sediment depths reach ¼ of the pipe diameter with
a maximum of 6-inches. At a minimum, remove floating debris at the time of the inspection .
If structure is constructed with a sump, the sump shall be cleaned when sediment depths
reach approximately 3 inches. Additionally, gas hoods shall be inspected to ensure excess
residue does not collect inside the hood.
Sediment from cleaning procedures should not be dumped into a sanitary sewer but
disposed of in accordance with all federal, state, and local requirements.
Good House Keeping
Periodic maintenance and inspections of the storm sewer network will reduce stormwater
runoff pollution. Inspect Inlets for debris and sediment. Remove debris and sediment and
dispose of properly. Properly cleanup and/or report any chemical spills. Minimize fertilizer,
pesticide and herbicide applications. Avoid applying before any rain event.
Property owner shall keep the site free from litter, woody growth, and shall mow the property
when needed, but average grass blade height is not to exceed five (5) inches.
IV. Conveyances Maintenance
Storm Sewers
Inspect storm sewers monthly and after each rainfall event. More frequent inspections
should be performed in areas where there is higher potential for trash or litter and during the
fall when leaves are present on the ground.
Clean storm sewers when sediment depths reach ¼ of the pipe diameter with a maximum of
6-inches.
Rip-rap
Inspect rip-rap semi-annually and after major rainfall events to ensure proper flow and to
make sure it is free of trash/debris. Remove any obstructions to flow, including accumulated
sediments, debris, and vegetated growth.
Flowlines
Inspect flowlines monthly and after each rainfall event to ensure they are working in their
intended fashion and that they are free of sediment and debris. Remove any obstructions to
flow, including accumulated sediments, debris, and vegetated growth.
Flowlines to remain unobstructed from buildings, fences, and have a uniform slope.
Vegetated Areas
Property owner shall keep the site free from litter, woody growth, and shall mow native
vegetation once per year, wither in late fall or early spring.
Concrete and Hard Surfaces
Clear accumulations of winter sand on hard surfaces and along walks and pavement at least
once a year, preferably in the spring. Accumulations on may be removed by sweeping.
