4.08 STORM DRAIN INLET PROTECTION
<br />(ES BMP 1.08)
<br />Definition
<br />A sediment filter or an excavated impounding area around a storm drain drop inlet or curb
<br />inlet.
<br />Pur ose
<br />To prevent sediment from entering storm water conveyance systems prior to perm anent
<br />stabilization of the disturbed area.
<br />Condition Where Practice Applies
<br />Where storm drain inlets are to be made operational before permanent stabilization of the
<br />disturbed drainage area. Different types of structures are applicable to different conditions
<br />(see Plates 4.08a through 4.08h).
<br />Plannina Considerations
<br />Storm sewers which are made operational before their drainage area is stabilized can
<br />convey large amounts of sediment to receiving waters. In case of extreme sediment
<br />loading, the storm sewer itself may clog and lose most of its capacity. To avoid these
<br />problems, It is necessary to prevent sediment from entering the system at the inlets.
<br />This section contains several types of inlet filters and traps which have different
<br />applications dependent upon site conditions and type of inlet. Other innovative techniques
<br />for accomplishing the same purpose are encouraged, but only after specific plans and
<br />details are submitted to and approved by the stormwater permitting agency.
<br />Note that these various Inlet protection devices are for drainage areas of less than one
<br />acre (0.4 ha). Runoff from large disturbed areas should be routed through a TEMPORARY
<br />SEDIMENT TRAP - Section 4.25 (ES BMP 1.25).
<br />Design Criteria
<br />1. The drainage area shall be no greater than 1 acre (0.4 ha).
<br />2. The inlet protection device shall be constructed to facilitate clean out and disposal
<br />of trapped sediment and to minimize interference with construction activities.
<br />3. The inlet protection devices shall be constructed so that any resultant ponding or

<br />This method of Inlet protection is applicable where the inlet drains a relatively flat area (slope no greater
<br />than 5%) where the inlet sheet or overland flows (not exceeding 1 c.f s.) are typical.The method shall not
<br />apply to inlets receiving concentrated flows, such as in street or highway medians.

<br />structures. Plate 4.08c Straw Bale and Gravel Drop Inlet Sediment Barrier

<br />sides rather than over and under the bales. comparable wire mesh with 112 inch (13 mm) openings shall be used. If more than
<br />one strip of mesh is necessary, the strips shall be overlapped at least 1 ft. (30 cm).
<br />2. Bales shall be placed lengthwise in a single row surrounding the inlet, with the
<br />ends of adjacent bales pressed together. (See Plate 4.08a) 2. FDOT No. 1 Coarse Aggregate (1.5" to 3.5" stone)(4 - 9 cm) shall be placed over
<br />the wire mesh as shown on Plate 4.08c. The depth of stone shall be at least 12

<br />the bales are staked, the excavated soil shall be backfilled and compacted against
<br />the filter barrier. (See Plate 4.08b) 3. If the stone filter becomes clogged with sediment so that it no longer adequately

<br />Block and aravel drop inlet sediment filter
<br />1. Place concrete blocks lengthwise on their sides in a single row around the perimeter
<br />of the inlet, with the ends of adjacent blocks abutting. The height of the barrier can
<br />be varied, depending on design needs, by stacking combinations of 4 inch, 8 inch
<br />and 12 inch (10, 20, and 30 cm) wide blocks. The barrier of blocks shall beatleast
<br />12 inches (30 cm) high and no greater than 24 inches (60 cm) high.
<br />2. Wire mesh shall be placed over the outside vertical face (webbing) of the concrete
<br />blocks to prevent stone from being washed through the holes in the blocks.
<br />Hardware cloth or comparable wire mesh with 112 inch (13 mm) openings shall be
<br />used. (See Plate 4.08g)
<br />3. Stone shall be piled against the wire to the top of the block barrier. Suitable coarse
<br />aggregate shall be used. (See Plate 4.08h)
<br />4. If the stone filter becomes clogged with sediment so that it no longer adequately
<br />performs its function, the stone must be pulled away from the blocks, cleaned and
<br />replaced.
<br />5. As a very temporary alternative, pervious burlap bags filled with gravel may be
<br />placed around the inlet provided that there are no gaps between the bags. (See
<br />Plate 4.08i)
<br />6. Either of these two practices may be installed on pavement or bare ground
<br />Sod drop inlet sediment filter
<br />1. Soil shall be prepared and sod installed according to the specifications in SODDING
<br />Section 6.67 (ES BMP 1.67).
<br />2. Sod shall be placed to form a turf mat covering the soil for a distance of 4 feet
<br />(1.2 m) from each side of the inlet structure. (See Plate 4.08j)
<br />Prefabricated drop inlet Internal filter bag (ACF Silt Sack)
<br />1. Remove the grate over the catch basin and insert the filter device, then replace
<br />grate to hold the device in position.
<br />2. When sediments have accumulated to within one foot (30 cm) of the grate the filter
<br />insert must be removed by a front-end loader or forklift. The filter may be discarded
<br />and replaced or ft may be emptied, cleaned, and reused.

<br />Prefabricated drop inlet external filter (Suntree Isles Grate Inlet Protector)
<br />1. Place the device over the inlet. If the inlet has a grate, the device shall be secured
<br />to the grate by means of a long toggle bolt. If the grate is not present, the device
<br />shall be bolted directly to the concrete.
<br />2. Sediments shall be removed when they have accumulated to within one foot (30
<br />cm) of the top of the device. The filter fabric elements shall be cleaned or replaced
<br />at that time.
<br />NOTE: This segment does not constitute a product endorsement.
<br />Gravel curb inlet sediment filter
<br />1. Hardware cloth or comparable wire mesh with 1/2 inch (13 mm) openings shall be
<br />placed over the curb inlet opening so that at least 12 inches (30 cm) of wire extends
<br />across the top of the inlet cover and at least 12 inches (30 cm) of wire extends
<br />across the concrete gutter from the inlet opening. (See Plate 4.08k)
<br />2. Stone shall be piled against the wire so as to anchor it against the gutter and inlet
<br />cover and to cover the inlet opening completely. FDOT No. 1 Coarse Aggregate
<br />shall be used.
<br />3. An overflow weir can be constructed of 2" x 4" (5 x 10 cm) boards to lessen ponding
<br />from this practice. (See Plate 4.08L)
<br />4. If the stone filter becomes clogged with sediment so that it no longer adequately
<br />performs its function, the stone must be pulled away from the block, cleaned and
<br />replaced.
<br />Block and gravel curb inlet sediment filter
<br />1. Two concrete blocks shall be placed on their sides abutting the curb at either side
<br />of the inlet opening.
<br />2. A 2" x 4" (5 x 10 cm) board shall be cut and placed through the outer holes of each
<br />spacer block to help keep the front blocks in place.
<br />3. Concrete blocks shall be placed on their sides across the front of the inlet and
<br />abutting the spacer blocks. (See Plate 4.08m)
<br />4. Wire mesh shall be placed over the outside vertical face (webbing) of the concrete
<br />blocks to prevent stone from being washed through the holes in the blocks.
<br />Hardware cloth with 1/2 inch (13 mm) openings shall be used.
