It is DownStream Services, Inc.'s pledge to ensure the environmental integrity of our community's stormwater conveyance systems by addressing storm water pollution prevention. Federal, State, and local regulations require stormwater conveyance systems to be maintained and serviced on a recurring basis.
These laws were established to ensure the systems are effectively removing contaminants from the storm water runoff, thereby preventing storm water pollution from entering into our waterways.
DownStream Services, Inc. has dedicated a separate division to developing and implementing Preventative Storm Water Maintenance Programs (PMP) to guarantee NPDES compliance of all forms of stormwater treatment systems. Integrating effective Best Management Practices (BMPs), our Certified Professionals in Erosion and Sediment Control will customize a program to include the following:
 |
Assessment of the Stormwater Conveyance System |
|
BMP Recommendations and Guidelines |
|
Pipe Inspection, Installation and Sewer Cleaning Services |
|
Storm Water Lab Analysis, Pollution Disposal and Manifesting |
|
Storm Water Pollution Prevention Compliance Certification Report |
Proper installations and scheduled maintenance of erosion control measures are key to the success of stormwater conveyance systems. DownStream Services, Inc. has teamed with Kristar Enterprises, Inc., a manufacturer of stormwater management products, to distribute a wide variety of pre and post construction BMPs as an additional service to our clients.
The cleaning of stormwater conveyance systems may generate wastewater and debris which is considered "Regulated Waste Discharge." It may contain pollutants such as paint, oil, fuel and others. Federal law requires that all "collected" discharge from a cleaning operation be sampled and tested to profile and characterize the waste for final disposal. DownStream Services, Inc. is licensed to manage, transport, and dispose of "Regulated Waste" and will follow chain of custody procedures to insure proper compliance with the appropriate disposal facility.
DownStream Services, Inc.'s dedicated team is annually certified in Confined Space Entry, as well as HAZWOPER and CPR First Aid. Confined Space Entries are conducted in compliance with our own written Confined Space Plan and Procedures based on both State and Federal OSHA requirements. Experienced in all forms of stormwater conveyance systems and filters, we install and maintain the following:
