GEPS® for detention ponds

Restore detention pond capacity and reduce standing water naturally.

Detention pond in an urban environment

Symptoms

Persistent ponding, slow drawdown, sediment buildup, saturated banks, and reduced stormwater storage capacity.

Causes

Compacted soils, clogged pond bottoms, low infiltration, sediment accumulation, and poor subsurface drainage.

Impacts

Lost detention capacity, mosquito breeding, bank erosion, maintenance costs, and greater downstream flood risk.

How GEPS® solves the problem

GEPS® increases infiltration through the pond base and nearby soils, accelerating drawdown, restoring storage capacity, and limiting saturation.

*Maximum performance observed on controlled GEPS® installations. Results may vary depending on technical and natural conditions.

geps

actions

Install GEPS® below the pond basin to increase infiltration, improve drawdown, and stabilize surrounding soils.

geps

results

Faster drawdown, restored pond capacity, less standing water, lower maintenance, and improved stormwater control.

geps

efficiency

Shorter water retention times, increased infiltration, fewer saturated areas, and reduced sediment-related maintenance.
