Storm Water Catch basins general info

---

     The Gibson Catch Basin is a single chamber metal device used to collect rainwater runoff. These devices are constructed with traffic rated grating and a hinged trap arrangement that allows sediment to be filtered in the device, allowing water to exit through the outlet and into the drainage system.

     The Sand Collector is a double chambered device that allows a higher degree of sediment removal. Both devices have a removable filter that contains a filtering medium just under the storm water inlet (Catch Basin) grate. The runoff flows through the filter where oil and grease are removed. The filter is non-leaching and can be disposed through normal trash removal. Uses of these devices range from parking lots and car washes to residential areas.
