3. Wet Pond:
Description
The wet pond [or retention pond] is a facility that removes sediment, Biochemical Oxygen
Demand (BOD), organic nutrients, and trace metals from stonnwater runoff. This is
accomplished by slowing down stonnwater using an in-line permanent pool or pond affecting
settling of pollutants. The wet pond is similar to a dry pond, except that a permanent volume of
water in incorporated into the design. The drainage area should be such that an adequate base
flow is maintained in the pond. Biological processes occurring in the permanent pond pool aid in
reducing the amount of soluble nutrients present in the water, such as nitrate and ortho-
phosphorus (Schueler, 1987).
Landscaping
The banks of the detention storage basin shall have grass or other suitable vegetative cover. The
banks of the detention storage basin extend from the top of bank down to the normal water
elevation. Vegetative cover around detention facilities should be maintained as appropriate.
The County will not be responsible for maintenance of the wet pond and bank slopes.
• Maintenance Recommendations
Ponds require regular maintenance and inspection practices. The table below outlines these
practices.

Maintenance Recommendations
Activi Schedule
• If wetland components are included, inspect for invasive
Semi-annual inspection
vegetation.
• Inspect for damage.
• Note signs of hydrocarbon build-up, and deal with appropriately.
• Monitor for sediment accumulation in the facility and forebay. Annual inspection
• Examine to ensure that inlet and outlet devices are free of debris
and o erational.
• Re air undercut or eroded areas. As needed maintenance
• Clean and remove debris from inlet and outlet structures.
• Remove litter and woody growth. Monthly maintenance
• Mow side slo es.
• Manage and harvest wetland plants. Annual maintenance
(if needed)
• Monitor sediment accumulations, and remove sediment when the
pool volume is reduced significantly, or the pond becomes 7- to 10-year maintenance
eutrophic (excess bacteria growth).
