Introduction of NJDEP Stormwater Maintenance Guidance
This Video provides an explanation for how the Maintenance Guidance materials (Maintenance Plan, Field Manuals, and Maintenance Logs and Inspection Records) work together.
|
Maintenance Plan
The Maintenance Plan incorporates the rule requirements for maintenance plan contents and additional items addressed in the NJ Stormwater BMP Manual chapters: Structural Stormwater Management Measures and Chapter 8 - Maintenance and Retrofit of Stormwater Management Measures, in the form of a template to assist design engineers with the preparation of their maintenance plans.
|
Field Manuals
Each Field Manual includes templates for basic design information, checklists, visual aids, reference documents, and maintenance records. This provides a systematic method to assist maintenance crews in performing field work and retaining records. Each Field Manual was developed with the consideration of essential maintenance requirements for each type of stormwater measure addressed in the corresponding Structural Stormwater Management Measures subchapters within the NJ Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual.
