Scheduled maintenance includes assessing damage after extreme weather, monitoring anchoring systems, and observing potential environmental impacts, such as tidal flows.<\/p><p>Litter removal should be performed on a regular basis (e.g. 6 months), but is guided by visual inspections. Storm events often deliver a significant debris load, which may require an immediate response. Depending on the amount of litter captured, it may be removed manually, captured via vacuum truck, or even require heavier equipment (e.g. floating harvester).<\/p><p>Management of weeds on FTW installations is crucial. During the establishment phase of wetland plants, weeds can be removed by hand. After establishment, spot spraying of a selective herbicide is recommended instead.<\/p><p>A key benefit of a modular system is that if plants, media, or weeding fail, the module plant basket may be replaced with a new module, media, and plants, without impacting the overall structure and health of the rest of the FTW system.<\/p><p>On many sites, typical maintenance also includes sediment and litter removal from the inlet pond. Sediment should be removed when it exceeds the maintenance trigger level for the inlet pond or upstream GPT. This may require a bobcat, a small vehicle with a hoist, and a vacuum truck. In larger sites, this may scale up to a long-reach excavator and de-watering equipment.<\/p><p>Our team are experienced in installing, commissioning, and maintaining FTWs, and can help ensure the continued functionality and performance of your stormwater assets.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-77cda10 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"77cda10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"489\" src=\"https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Atlan-maintenance-08.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-42841\" alt=\"Atlan Maintenance\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Atlan-maintenance-08.jpg 800w, https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Atlan-maintenance-08-300x183.jpg 300w, https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/01\/Atlan-maintenance-08-768x469.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66ef9db elementor-align-justify elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"66ef9db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/atlanstormwater.com\/au\/atlan-maintenance\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">FIND OUT MORE ABOUT STORMWATER MAINTENANCE<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All stormwater treatment assets require maintenance to ensure ongoing operation, longer lifecycles, and regulatory compliance.
