Best Management Products, Inc.



Since 1999, more than 80,000 BMP SNOUT hoods have been put in service to help communities comply with stormwater quality regulations. This system reduces trash, floatables, oil and sediment from stormwater discharges. It is also a high-performance pre-treatment option for water harvesting, stormwater retention and recharge systems.


BMP’s accessories such as the Bio-Skirt, the Stainless TrashScree and our new Turbo Plates add flexibility and extra cleaning power. The most popular option for the SNOUT is the Bio-Skirt, which increases hydrocarbon removals including emulsified oils and PAHs. The Stainless TrashScreen is an accessory that helps to meet Full Trash Capture requirements for Trash TMDLs.


Our Turbo Plates reduce turbulence and velocity in the structure and greatly increase sediment capture and retention. Design information, CAD drawings and pricing can be found at bmpinc.com or call 800-504-8008 for assistance. All products are proudly made in the USA.

PRESTO GEOSYSTEMS



Presto Geosystems’ GEOPAVE gravel porous pavers were utilized for parking and walkways with other environmental and sustainable products at a Wisconsin nature preserve, The Ridges Sanctuary, in their pursuit for USGBC LEED Platinum rating.


Protecting Lake Michigan’s watershed was a primary concern at this facility’s location adjacent to the lake’s western shores. The porous pavements were an important part of the overall plan to protect the waters against the negative effects of stormwater runoff on water quality. The GEOPAVE system, infilled with highly porous stone, allows water infiltration and acts as a natural, onsite stormwater retention system, storing stormwater in its aggregate base after rain events and allowing for natural percolation. GEOPAVE pavements are designed to accept every-day traffic from cars, trucks and emergency vehicles.

ACF Environmental


ShearForce 10


Rip Rap can be expensive and difficult to install in tight areas. ShearForce 10 is a new erosion control mat technology that provides the same benefits of RipRap, at ½ the cost and in a more aesthetically pleasing manner. Created as a two-part system, ShearForce 10’s hybrid turf slows water flow and eliminates erosion while its geotextile backing holds the seed and soil in place as vegetation is established.


Unlike traditional TRMs, ShearForce 10 provides immediate protection from erosion following installation (no machinery required). Once installed, the turf is virtually maintenance free, and can be mowed over. Common applications for this new erosion control product include high-flow drainage channels, outfalls, slopes and more.

EJ


STORMSURGE ACCESS ASSEMBLY


During a major rain or tidal event, the water pressure can be powerful enough to force up and dislodge a manhole cover. This creates a hazard for both motorists and pedestrians. The STORMSURGE Access Assembly solves this problem by allowing water to flow. During a storm surge or backflow event, the cover can lift up to 16°, enabling water to flow out and relieve the pressure. The locking arm and hinge restrain the cover and allow it to properly seat itself after the event. Made in the USA, it is traffic rated and exceeds the 40,000-lb proof loading requirements of AASHTO-M-306.

J.W. Faircloth & Son, Inc.


The Faircloth Skimmer surface drain floats on the surface of the sediment basin as it fills and drains, releasing the cleanest water near the surface instead of draining muddy water from the bottom of the basin as conventional outlets do. The skimmer drains the basin slowly over several days at a constant rate to maximize settling. The adjustable orifice regulates the filling and drawdown of the basin and improves efficiency. Check out www.FairclothSkimmer.com for additional information, including cut sheets, a sizing template, detailed installation instructions and pictures.

The Plastics Pipe Institute


The Drainage Division of the Plastics Pipe Institute Inc. (PPI) provides drainage and stormwater systems management solutions.


Corrugated plastic pipe is one of most chemically inert drainage products available, making it highly resistant to corrosive gases and chemicals. It does not rust and is highly resistant to abrasion. A service life of 100 years can be expected in typical drainage applications.


Years of extensive research by AASHTO and various state DOTs have validated the performance of corrugated plastic pipe under difficult loading conditions. Corrugated plastic pipes are designed to interact with the surrounding soils and carry HL-93 live loads with just 12 inches of cover in most cases.


A new drainage handbook is available free to download at the PPI Drainage Division’s website: https://plasticpipe.org/drainage/handbook.html.
