Maintenance & Inspection
Procedure
Catch basins with hoods and sumps will hold accumulated sand,
sediment and floatables. Inspect four times per year for accumulated
sediment and/or hydrocarbons. Clean structures at least once a year
or whenever the sump is greater than 50% full. Necessary sediment
and hydrocarbon removal shall be performed immediately upon
identification.
Inspect the dumpster monthly for leakage and spills. Ensure that the
dumpster is covered and water is not entering or leaving the unit.
Clean any spills immediately and repair as necessary.
Inspect for debris accumulation and clogs. Inspect for snow or ice
buildup during winter months after storms. Remove and dispose of
debris, clogs, snow and ice as necessary.
Follow manufacturer's maintenance recommendations:
• Inspect every six months for the first year to determine
the oil and sediment accumulation rate.
• In subsequent years, inspections can be based on first-
year observations or local requirements.
• Cleaning is required annually, immediately if a spill occurs
or when sediment depth reaches 15% of storage
capacity, (generally taking one year or longer).
• Inspect the unit immediately after an oil, fuel or chemical
spill.
• A licensed waste management company should remove
oil and sediment and dispose responsibly.
Inspect inventory storage areas for signs of spills or leaks. Clean in
accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
Inspect for accumulated sand, sediment, etc. and any erosion.
Remove and dispose of accumulated debris annually or after
significant snowmelt if necessary. Repair any erosion immediately.
Sweep paved areas in the spring after winter sand season and in the
fall after leaves have fallen.
