lnspection
Floatable Debris and Oil
1. Remove manhole lid to expose liquid surface of ~~ua-~wirl~"
2. Remove floatable debris with basket or net if any is present.
3. If a hydrocarbon spill has occurred, (e.g. more than a sheen of oil or gas is present) the system should be cleaned immediately
(see "Cleaning" Figure 3).
Note: Water in an Aqua-swirlTM can appear black like oil due to the dark body of the surrounding structure. Oil appears
darker than water in the system and is usually accompanied by debris (e.g. Styrofoam, etc.) with obvious signs of oil stains.
The depth of oil can be measured with an oillwater interface probe, a stadia rod with water phylic paste,
a coliwasa, or by simply collecting a representative sample with a jar attached to a rod.
4. If hydrocarbon absorbant floc or pads are used, these should be inspected to determine whether they are loaded with
hydrocarbons. This will be indicated by a dark colaration of the pad or floc. Pads and/or floc should be removed and
disposed of in accordance with City of Indianapolis, and an applicable state and/or federal laws if they contain hydrocarbons.
Sediment Accumulation
Lower a dipstick tube equipped with a ball valve (e.g. Sludge Judge or similar device) into ~~ua-~wirl~" through the service access provided
Measure the depth of the sludge. At a maximum, the sludge should not exceed 36" depth before maintenance. See Figures 1 and 2.

Inspection (continued)
Diversion Structures
If an external dlverslon structure IS present on the s~te, th~s should be Inspected for the following Items
1 lnspect welr or other structure for structural decay or damage Werrs are more susceptible to damage than off-set plplng and should
be checked to conflrm that they are not crumbling or decaylng
2 lnspect dlvers~on structure and by-pass p~plng for slgns of structural damage or blockage from debrls or sedlment accumulat~on
3 Measure elevat~ons on dlverslon welr or p~plng to ensure ~t 1s consistent wlth s~te plan deslgn
4 lnspect downstream structure ~n drversron system for slgns of blockage or structural farlure
Call a local vactor company to remove sediments, oils and other
floatable pollutants with a vactor. Dispose of all waste in
accordance with City of Indianapolis and any applicable state,
and/or federal requirements.
Oil should be pumped and removed with any liquids and
sediments that have been trapped in the system.
These liquids should be taken to an industrial waste water
treatment facility for treatment. Liquids and solids pumped from
the AquaswirlT" should not be dumped back into the
stormwater system or into a sanitary sewer.
Figure 3
Note: The Aqua~wirlT'" is designed so that entry to the system is not necessary for inspection or maintenance. If, however,
you wish to enter the system, this is an OSHA confined space entry and OSHA confined space entry procedures should be followed
to enter the system
During Construction
lnspect the Aqua~wirl'" every three months (minimum) and clean the system as needed. The AquaSwirl 'M should be inspected and
cleaned at the end of construction regardless of whether it has reached its sediment or oil storage capacity.
First Year Post-Construction
lnspect the ~qua~wirl'" every three months and clean the system as needed.
lnspect and clean the system once annually regardless of whether it has reached its sediment or floatable pollutant storage capacity
Second and Subsequent Years Post-Construction
If the AquaSwirll"'did not reach full sediment or floatable pollutant capacity in the First Year Post-Construction,
the system can be inspected once every six months and cleaned once annually.
If the Aqua~wirlT" reached full sediment or floatable pollutant capacity in less than 12 months in the First Year Post-Construction,
the system should be inspected once every six months and cleaned as needed. The AquaSwirl '" should be cleaned
annually regardless of whether it reaches its sediment or floatable pollutant capacity.
Bypass Structures
Bypass structures should be inspected whenever the Aqua~wirl'"~ is inspected and maintained as needed.

OD) shall be fabricated from profile wall
HDPE ASTM F 894 RSC 250.
3. HDPE stub outs and internal components
shall be extrusion welded using accepted
welding practices. Stub outs shall be
supplied by Manufacturer and welded on

guard.
For corrugated plastic pipe, or pipe with a
diameter of 24" or larger, it is recommended
that Contractor use a Mar Mac coupling
(www.marrna~~co~r~)or equal, , with adhesive
mastic and tightening bands to create a
watertight seal around the joint. The joint
