Purpose and Function:

These Inlet protection devices intercept and trap leaves, trash, and debris before it can be transported from a site into the storm drain system and discharged into a lake, river, stream, wetland, or other waterbody. 

 

Consider the following when evaluating the use of inlet protection for a site.

• Most inlet protection devices are suitable for a drainage area of one acre or less. Runoff from larger disturbed areas should be routed to more suitable BMPs such as temporary sediment traps or temporary sediment basins.
• Inlet protection devices may result in ponding of water around the inlet. This may result in a traffic hazard depending on the site location.
• Inlet protection should be in areas where potential ponding will not have adverse impacts.
• Under high flow conditions, sediment removal may be ineffective.
• Inlet protection is intended for low flows having relatively low sediment loading.
• Inlet protection that is not properly installed, maintained, or removed may result in short-circuiting of flow.
• Stabilizing bare soil areas draining to the inlet and maintaining perimeter controls (e.g., silt fence, fiber logs) can help to prevent sediment overloads at inlet locations.
