Stormwater Stormwater, also spelled storm water, is water that originates during precipitation events and snow/ice melt. Stormwater can soak into the soil, be held on the surface and evaporate, or runoff and end up in nearby streams, rivers, or other water bodies. In natural landscapes such as forests, the soil absorbs much of the stormwater and plants help hold stormwater close to where it falls. In developed environments, unmanaged stormwater can create two major issues: one related to the volume and tim

Basics of Wastewater/Stormwater Lift Stations Stainless steel guide rail systems can be useful in the deeper stations. Special submersibles, called grinder pumps, are suitable for pressurized sewage system applications. The two generic types of lift station designs are wet well and wet well/dry well. The wet well/dry well type uses a wet well or pit to collect wastewater and a companion dry well which contains the pumps, controls, and related equipment.
