BIO CLEAN ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES INC.
Since 2003, Bio Clean Environmental Services Inc. has offered an inline cylindrical downspout filter proven effective at removing debris, TSS, hydrocarbons, and metals from stormwater runoff. Tested removal efficiencies are 93% for TSS and 87% for total petroleum hydrocarbons. This filter’s simple inline design offers hydraulic advantages over other downspout filters. Its inline design minimizes the “minor losses” associated with bends present in box type filters. With high-treatment and bypass flow rates, this filter is an effective and feasible solution for treating stormwater runoff from rooftops and parking structures.

BRENTWOOD INDUSTRIES
Brentwood’s new StormTank Stormwater Storage Modules are a high-void, strong, affordable alternative to crushed stone, concrete structures, or pipe chambers for subsurface stormwater detention or infiltration basins. They offer the largest void space of any underground stormwater storage units currently on the market (97%), and are load-rated for use under parking lots, athletic fields, parks, etc. The entire StormTank Storage System is built onsite from 18-inch-wide x 36-inch-long Top/Bottom Panels and Side Panels made of rugged, lightweight polypropylene and 2-inch to three-eighths-inch-diameter PVC columns (18-inch to 36-inch lengths). Combinations of these three components create all the module configurations needed for a fully functioning underground system.

CULTEC
CULTEC has launched a new StormGenie automated drawing program, allowing customers to generate project-specific AutoCAD drawings for the company’s Contactor and Recharger retention and detention stormwater systems. Designed to simplify the stormwater system’s design phase, CULTEC StormGenie works in conjunction with the company’s Stormwater Design Calculator. StormGenie takes information from CULTEC’s Calculator and creates rectangular beds based on the client’s project input. The StormGenie is a convenient tool for engineers, contractors, and landscape architects to create preliminary system proposals without spending a lot of time.

CUES INC.
CUES introduces the new self-contained K2 Summit Wireless Base Station portable CCTV inspection system. The system is mounted in a compact, lightweight, rugged, weatherproof enclosure that can fit into an ATV, van, trailer, or pickup truck, to access easements and hard-to-reach areas. A hand-held portable wireless control is supplied that operates all CUES zoom/pan and tilt cameras, transporters, and reels for 4- to 200-foot pipe inspection. A heavy-duty reel is supplied with a rotating side load feed-out assembly, optional automatic payout, and up to 1,500-foot, high-strength/lightweight video cable. Camera options include a built in inclinometer, sonde, or a laser diode system to measure cracks and offsets.

FILTERRA BIORETENTION SYSTEMS
Filterra Bioretention Systems now offers Bacterra–an optimized media blend for 95%–99% bacteria removal. It meets bacteria TMDL requirements, removes bacteria from stormwater, achieves water-quality goals, and reduces public health threats. Filterra is a shovel-ready solution for stormwater treatment. Using the power of nature to capture, cycle, and immobilize pollutants, Filterra effectively removes nutrients, metals, and TSS from urban runoff. Featuring a small footprint and easy maintenance, Filterra systems are ideal for urban retrofits, new construction, LID projects, and more.

J.W. FAIRCLOTH & SON INC.
Faircloth Skimmer surface drains float on the surface of the sediment basin as it fills and drains, releasing the cleanest water from the surface instead of draining muddy water from the bottom as conventional outlets do. The skimmer drains the basin slowly over several days at a constant rate to maximize settling. The adjustable orifice regulates the filling and drawdown of the basin and improves efficiency.

NATIONAL CORRUGATED STEEL PIPE ASSOCIATION
Over the past half-century, corrugated steel pipe coatings such as polymer-coated and aluminized Type 2 have increased in popularity, due to their exceptional service life capabilities. Independent field evaluations have proven that, when specified within the industry-recommended environmental conditions, polymer-coated and ALT2 CSP can provide a service life in excess of 100 years.

PLASTIC PIPE INSTITUTE
The Plastic Pipe Institute recommends using corrugated HDPE plastic pipe in detention/retention systems to maximize budgets, while building systems to last for generations. HDPE pipe systems are tough and durable, delivering superior service life, unsurpassed abrasion and corrosion resistance, and outstanding joint performance. For a sustainable, environmentally responsible choice, HDPE pipes will provide long-term, dependable operations, plus they conserve resources and reduce expenses by using components that require less energy to fabricate, transport, and install. The customer can modernize or replace ineffective or degraded systems with this globally accepted, greener infrastructure solution.
