Device Drainage area Entrance velocity Dimensions Materials Layout Recommendations (physical location, off-line placement) Soils
Rain Guardian - Bunker Up to 6.11 cfs [1] Standard exterior dimensions = 51.25 in L x 20 in W x 15.75 in H, Designed for garden standard ponding depth of 9 in or 12 in [2] 95% recycled plastic lumber [3] Residential bioretention (rain gardens) [4]
Rain Guardian - Turret Up to 3.45 cfs [5] 46 in by 50 in base, 19.5 in total height, designed for garden standard ponding depth of 12 in [6] Reinforced concrete base, fiberglass grate [7] Parking lot rain gardens and high traffic areas [8]
Rain Guardian - Foxhole 2 ft 11 in W x 1 ft 7 in H x As Long as Needed in 3 ft increments Reinforced concrete base, fiberglass grate Under walkways, paths and roads into a rain garden [9]
Riprap check dams <10 acres [10] 4-5 ft wide at the bottom, 1.5 to 2 ft wide at the top, 1.5 to 2 ft high, side slopes no steeper than 2:1 [11] Riprap, coarse aggregate facing uphill side, mixture of rock sizes, nonwoven geotextile below [12] Small open channels (not streams or rivers) with channel slopes >10% [13] Areas conducive to erosion (sandy/silty) [14]
Wattles Not available, although perhaps similar to silt fence <0.25 acre Two sizes: 9 in diameter x 25 ft long and 12 in diameter x 20 ft long, wooden stakes through wattle into soil every 3-4 ft [15] Straw, tubular UV-stabilized black synthetic netting, 18-24 in wooden stakes [16] Newly constructed or disturbed slopes [17]
Hydro Screen Depends on model/application Outfall screen can handle up to 1,000 cfs [18] Depends on model/application Stainless steel Downspouts, detention ponds, private property/roofs, curbs, parking lots, farms [19]

Device Installation notes Frequency of inspections Maintenance checklist (link) Permitted on private land/ Maintenance agreement recommended Practices for minimizing sediment and trash buildup Practices for mitigating erosion Cost considerations (equipment needed and man hours)
Rain Guardian - Bunker Specifications and installation notes available here Following rain events [25] Maintenance guide Remove debris if grate is clogged, chamber is >75% full, or vertical filter wall is clogged [26] NA Simple hand tools; <5 minutes
Rain Guardian - Turret Specifications and installation notes available here Following rain events [27] Maintenance guide Remove debris if grate is clogged, chamber is >75% full, or vertical filter wall is clogged [28] NA Simple hand tools; <5 minutes
Rain Guardian - Foxhole Specifications and installation notes available here Following rain events [29] Maintenance guide Remove debris if grate is clogged, chamber is >75% full, or vertical filter wall is clogged [30] NA Simple hand tools; <5 minutes
Riprap check dams General installation guidelines available here Following each runoff event, especially after rainfall exceeding 0.5 inches [31] Maintenance guide Remove sediment adjacent to and behind check dam before it reaches halfway to the top, repair and restore dam [32] To the extent feasible, use erosion prevention practices such as stabilization rather than sediment control practices, restabilization of areas where sediment removal results in exposed soil [33]
Wattles Installation guide here Following rain events Frequent sediment removal is necessary NA
