A continuous belt screen assembly and related methods of controlling flow through the continuous belt screen assembly. The continuous belt screen assembly has a base, opposed sides, an inlet and at least one outlet. The assembly, in use, is arranged in a channel having a pair of opposed walls and containing a liquid. A flow restrictor for the continuous belt screen assembly includes a body mountable to a downstream end of the assembly to restrict the liquid flowing out of the at least one outlet. The body defines at least a portion of at least one aperture configured to control a level of the liquid upstream of the body.

Stormwater management systems, methods, and apparatuses for containing and filtering runoff may be provided. In one implementation, a flared end ramp for managing flow of material into a stormwater chamber may be provided. The flared end ramp may include an inlet end configured for connection with a pipe, a side wall of the flared end ramp having a rounded profile at the inlet end; an outlet end configured for placement within the stormwater chamber; and an inclined surface extending between the inlet end and the outlet end of the flared end ramp and configured to deliver material from the pipe into the stormwater chamber. The outlet end of the flared end ramp may have a larger width than the inlet end of the flared end ramp such that the inclined surface is angled laterally outward from the inlet end toward the outlet end.

A water detention system for detaining storm water having a side wall and a bottom floor; an inlet conduit for ingress of storm water; and a water discharging assembly, which includes a siphon, configured to pass storm water there through; and an outlet conduit for egress of storm water from the water discharging assembly. The inlet and outlet conduits are disposed through the side wall of the water detention system. A water discharging assembly for discharging storm water from a water detention system includes an outer enclosure; a first opening in the outer enclosure for ingress of water; a second opening in the outer enclosure for egress of water; and a siphon disposed within the outer enclosure; where, except of the first opening and the second opening, the outer enclosure is substantially fluid tight.

A catch basin trap for mounting in an opening in a side wall of a catch basin. A preferred catch basin trap has a body with a front side for facing outwardly to outside of the catch basin, and a back side for facing inwardly to inside of the catch basin. An inlet opening is provided in the back side of the body for receiving drainage water from inside of the catch basin. An outlet opening is provided in the front side of the body for discharging the drainage water to the outside of the catch basin. A flexible outlet pipe connector extends outwardly from the outlet opening, configured for watertight coupling to an outlet pipe positioned outside of the catch basin. The catch basin trap provides a water flow path for drainage water from inside of the catch basin to the outlet pipe. A preferred outlet pipe connector is adapted to facilitate installation of the catch basin trap by allowing watertight coupling to the outlet pipe at a plurality of angles and positions relative to the catch basin trap, and to accommodate angular and transpositional deviations of the outlet pipe resulting from settling of the ground after installation.

Utilizing debris basins for stormwater retention.

An expansion ring mountable in a storm drain for supporting a filtering apparatus includes a ring-shaped expansion member having an adjustable diameter which is cut transversely to define two open end portions thereon which face each other and which are separated from each other by a predetermined distance to define a gap therebetween. A wedge assembly is positioned at the gap between the open end portions of the expansion member and is adjustable to increase the diameter of the expansion member. When the wedge assembly is adjusted to increase the diameter of the expansion member, the expansion member tightly engages a side wall of a portion of the storm drain in which the expansion ring is mounted to secure the expansion ring, and a filtering apparatus supported thereby, in a desired position.

A stormwater drain baffle to be disposed in a flow-through stormwater sump or chamber for baffling a stormwater flow-path. The baffle has a plurality of openings distributed over the area of the baffle. The baffle comprises at least two baffle portions connected to each other. The baffle portions are disposed near to and in superposed relation to each other, so that the baffle portions overlap each other and are adjustably connected to each other for adjusting the width (W.sub.tot) of the baffle. At least the outermost baffle portions of the baffle comprise fixing members which are monolithic with the baffle portion and adapted for fixing the baffle to the vertical inner wall of the sump or the chamber.

A prerotation basin for use in a sump pit or wet well includes a basin body having an upstanding exterior wall, an interior concavity for placement of a pump inlet therein, and a fluid entry channel formed in the basin body defined by a discontinuity in the upstanding exterior wall, where the fluid entry channel has a channel floor, the threshold of which is at an elevation that is equal to or lower than the elevation of the bottom surface of the interior concavity. The prerotation basin thereby provides a channel floor that slopes upwardly toward the bottom surface of the interior concavity to provide better solids entrainment in fluid being processed from the sump pit or wet well, and to provide self-flushing of the basin.

Sewage flowing into a second water branching device is accurately controlled to separate into the following: sewage with a maximum sewage volume that can be discharged into a public water body W, the sewage sequentially passing through a first regulating tank, a first orifice, a second regulating tank, a second orifice, a third regulating tank and a third orifice to flow into a second discharge pipe; and sewage with an excess sewage volume, the sewage overflowing first to third overflow weirs to flow into an inflow pipe for a regulating reservoir.

Systems and methods for treating water passing through a catch basin may include filters. In some embodiments, the filter(s) can have a plurality of regions with different nominal flow rates.
