Advanced Environmental Services provides field inlet protection including stormwater drain inlet protection for civil and commercial worksites across South East Queensland, NSW Northern Rivers and Greater Melbourne. Inlet protection is a popular sediment control practice used globally and is a cost-effective way to protect waterways from pollution. Learn more about sediment control and stormwater inlet protection by reading futher or contact our team today to discuss your project needs.
Sediment control is the process of preventing loss of eroded soil on a project site. A successful protection method includes a physical filtration system that traps sediment soil particles but allows water to pass through. By trapping soil, clean water can safely flow through to rivers, creeks, ponds, dams or oceans. Therefore, keeping waterways clean.
A stormwater inlet refers to surface grates and catch basins at the opening of stormwater drains. They can also include kerb inlets and other drop-type structures constructed to direct stormwater into the underground drainage infrastructure.
The primary goal of stormwater inlet protection is to protect waterways from sediment. By protecting these inlets, sediment run-off from a construction or civil site is trapped before it can even enter the stormwater systems. This ensures heavy sediment loads will not clog stormwater infrastructure or migrate into creeks, rivers and the ocean.
Stormwater drain inlet protection is often the last line of defence apart from sediment control fencing when it comes to controlling sediment on a worksite. The last thing stopping sediment from entering the stormwater system, particularly when the kerb and channelling are complete, is the field inlet. For this sediment control method to work effectively, correct installation is crucial. Advanced Environmental Services provide skilled environmental protection teams and quality materials when installing inlet protection. We have a track record of installing devices and products that successfully reduce sediments from entering waterways.
Before you decide what type of inlet protection to install, there are a few safety factors you should consider. Firstly, some inlet protection devices may result in water ponding around the inlet, this could become a serious hazard in heavy traffic areas. Secondly, inlet protection should also be installed immediately after the storm sewer inlets are in place, remember that blocking any inlets can cause streets to flood and may result in a build-up of sediment. These are just a few things to consider when choosing the right inlet protection method for your specific project site.
