Detention & Retention Ponds

Detention Ponds: These are designed to temporarily hold stormwater runoff and release it slowly to reduce downstream flooding.

Retention Ponds: Unlike detention basins, retention basins hold water year-round and help filter pollutants naturally through vegetation and soil.

Stormwater management systems are designed to manage the quantity and quality ofvstormwater runoff to protect water resources, reduce flooding, and prevent erosion.
