| − | BioClean Environmental Services BioClean The Kraken is an engineered filtration system designed to filter pollutants from stormwater runoff. It is classified as a <span title="A manufactured treatment device (mtd) is a pre-fabricated stormwater treatment structure utilizing settling (sedimentation), filtration, absorptive/adsorptive materials, vortex separation, vegetative components, and/or other appropriate technology to remove pollutants from stormwater runoff. MTDs are typically proprietary devices."> '''manufactured treatment device'''</span> (mtd).

| |
| − | **Conditions for receiving credit
| |
| − | ***Inspect manufactured treatment device a minimum of twice during year 1. Conduct inspections following manufacturer’s instructions/recommendations and any additional instructions [https://stormwater.pca.state.mn.us/index.php?title=BioClean_The_Kraken#Use_conditions listed in this section]. Use maintenance indicators provided by manufacturers to determine if maintenance is needed. Maintenance procedures should follow manufacturer’s guidelines. After year 1, follow manufacturers inspection, operation, and maintenance schedule and procedures unless otherwise required or unless year 1 inspections indicate a need for increased inspection and/or operation and maintenance.
