Maintenance and Operation Plan <br /> The City of Everett requires the owner or operator of the project drainage facility to <br /> maintain the facility in accordance with the City Maintenance Checklists. <br /> The following pages contain maintenance needs for components included in the <br /> project that are part of a drainage system. Those components must be contained <br /> within the project's Maintenance Plan. <br /> The owner or operator of the project drainage facility to maintain the facility in <br /> accordance with the Drainage Facility Maintenance Schedule. The property owners <br /> shall keep records of their maintenance actions for their drainage facilities. <br /> The facility-specific maintenance standards contained here are intended to be <br /> conditions for determining if maintenance actions are required as identified through <br /> inspection. They are not intended to be measures of the facility's required condition <br /> at all times between inspections. In other words, exceedance of these conditions at <br /> any time between inspections and/or maintenance does not automatically constitute <br /> a violation of these standards. However, based upon inspection observations, the <br /> inspection and maintenance schedules shall be adjusted to minimize the length of <br /> time that a facility is in a condition that requires a maintenance action. <br /> Maintenance checklists are provided for the following types of facilities/structures: <br /> Catch Basin <br /> BMP T5.10B: Downspout Dispersion Systems <br /> BMP T5.12: Sheet Flow Dispersion <br /> BMP T5.13: Post-Construction Soil Quality and Depth <br />
