Semi-Annual Monitoring Plan

Protect Your Property With Semi-Annual Stormwater Monitoring

Two professional stormwater inspections per year to help keep your ponds, swales, outlet structures, embankments, and drainage systems functioning properly.

Designed for commercial properties, warehouses, logistics facilities, HOAs & property managers in Georgia.

The Problem

Stormwater Problems Don't Usually Happen Overnight.

Most drainage and detention pond issues start as small maintenance items. When ignored, they can become costly repairs, pond failures, compliance concerns, or property damage.

Minor erosion
Overgrown vegetation
Blocked outlet structures
Sediment buildup
Damaged riprap
Dead trees on pond embankments
Poor access to stormwater BMPs
Swales not draining properly

The Solution

A Proactive Plan for Long-Term Stormwater Performance.

BridgeWay Environmental visits your property twice per year to inspect visible stormwater BMP conditions and provide clear documentation and maintenance recommendations. You get earlier warning signs, better records, and a single point of contact for your stormwater system — not a one-and-done annual visit.

What's Included

Every Visit, Documented.

Embankment & slope condition

Settlement, animal burrows, woody growth, and seepage.

Vegetation assessment

Sediment & debris

Visible accumulation tracked over time.

Photo documentation

Date-stamped photos of every key feature.

Written inspection summary

A clear report your team can act on.

What to address now vs. monitor.

Email support

Follow-up questions answered between visits.

Why Twice

Why Semi-Annual Inspections Make Sense.

Spring / Summer

Vegetation & access

Spring and summer inspections catch vegetation overgrowth, woody growth on embankments, and pond access issues before they hide structural concerns.

Fall / Winter

Erosion & structure

Fall and winter inspections help identify erosion, sediment accumulation, dead trees, and structural concerns when vegetation is reduced and features are visible.

Year-Round

Documentation & trend

Twice-yearly monitoring gives property owners better documentation, side-by-side photo records, and earlier warning signs over time.

Georgia BMP Expertise

Built Around Georgia Stormwater BMP Maintenance Expectations.

Stormwater systems must be maintained so they continue functioning as designed. Our inspections are based on accepted Georgia stormwater BMP maintenance practices, including evaluation of ponds, outlet control structures, embankments, swales, erosion areas, and visible sediment accumulation.

Small Maintenance Issues Can Become Expensive Repairs.

A blocked outlet structure, eroded riprap area, fallen tree, failed swale, or neglected pond embankment can quickly become a costly maintenance problem. Semi-annual monitoring helps keep your stormwater system visible, documented, and managed.

FAQ

Common Questions.

Is this the same as a repair service?

Two inspections per year.

What types of stormwater systems do you inspect?

Detention ponds, wet ponds, dry ponds, swales, outlet control structures, riprap areas, embankments, and related visible BMP features.

Is this only for Georgia properties?

The service is designed around Georgia stormwater BMP maintenance practices, but BridgeWay Environmental can review nearby regional properties upon request.

What if my property has multiple ponds?

Custom pricing may apply depending on the number of ponds, BMPs, and site complexity.

Do you provide a written report?

Yes. Each inspection includes photo documentation and a written inspection summary.
