Sedimentation basins are stormwater detention systems that promote settling of sediments through the. reduction of flow velocities and temporary detention. Key elements include purpose designed inlet and outlet. structures, settling pond, and high flow, overflow structures. The storage volume consists of two.
Detention ponds help control the rate of flow by using a control device that maintains the pre-development rate of flow. The volume of the detention pond is calculated by comparing the pre- and post- development runoff volumes. The difference is the detention volume.
