Why Construction Sites Require Extra Storm Drain Protection
Construction sites generate large amounts of loose material that can easily enter storm drains. Soil, gravel, and construction debris are often exposed and vulnerable to runoff during rain events.
Without proper protection, this material accumulates inside stormwater systems and reduces drainage capacity.
Sediment buildup increases the risk of flooding and can lead to costly cleanouts and regulatory issues.
Proactive storm drain protection is essential throughout all phases of construction activity.
Debris caps help prevent sediment from entering underground pipes, protecting both the site and surrounding infrastructure.
