Detention Pond Skimmer
By Turtle Creek Erosion Products
The Turtle Creek Detention Pond Skimmer is a cost-effective apparatus used to reduce the amount of sediment that discharges from your detention pond or sediment basin. Our Detention Pond Skimmer is designed with various sizes with controlled flow rates to work in any size detention pond. Conventional basin outlets drain sediment laden water into downstream waterways and are usually installed at the bottom of a sediment basin. The Detention Pond Skimmer skims water off the surface of the pond using a float to drain the cleaner water into the downstream storm channel. This greatly reduces the amount of sediment discharging from construction projects.

Operation
What?
The Turtle Creek Sediment Basin Drain is a device that floats atop the water in a sediment basin or detention pond. It drains the least sediment laden water as compared to discharging the sediment dense water present at the bottom of the basin.
Troubleshooting
Our Dome Skimmer Head is designed to reduce floating debris on the water surface from entering the drainpipe.
Design
The Turtle Creek Sediment Basin Drain was designed with the contractor in mind. SCH-40 to SDR-35 is light weight with transition fittings included. One stick of SDR-35 sewer pipe and a manhole boot or grout is all that is required in addition to the skimmer.
