Retention ponds sometimes referred to as retention basins, are designed to permanently hold water and manage stormwater runoff, while detention ponds, often called detention basins, temporarily store water during major storms and release it slowly to prevent downstream flooding. The main difference is that retention ponds maintain a permanent pool of water, whereas detention ponds are generally smaller and can dry up between storm events.
The primary purpose of a retention pond is to manage stormwater runoff, control flood flows, and improve water quality in local waterways. By holding water consistently, retention ponds also offer aesthetic benefits, serving as a recreational amenity and enhancing property value.
To maintain a pond's water quality naturally, it's essential to introduce beneficial fish and plants that prevent algal growth. Regular removal of plant debris and sediment buildup ensures the pond water remains clear. Implementing a vegetative buffer around the pond can also aid in erosion control and improve the overall health of the pond ecosystem.
Water retention ponds, or retention basins, help manage stormwater collection, reducing the risk of flooding on the property. They improve water quality by allowing pollutants to settle and provide aesthetic and recreational purposes, enhancing the overall property value. Additionally, they serve as a safeguard against erosion and can support local wildlife.
Maintaining a retention pond involves regularly inspecting for erosion, ensuring the outlet structure functions correctly, and managing water levels. It's crucial to monitor water quality, address algal growth, and ensure the pond's proper function. Periodic removal of sediment and maintaining a vegetative buffer around the pond are also essential practices.
