Catch Basin

This week we installed a new catch basin on the left of #3 approach. For those of you who have been members a while, I'm sure you know that this is an area where we often have problems when it rains. The smaller drain often gets clogged by leaves, sticks and other debris and then the water backs up. To remedy this we put in a large storm drain with larger gaps between the grates which will keep it from getting clogged and overflowing onto the fairway.

Old catch basin with the cap already taken off. It's a 6" pipe.

















New catch basin installed with drainage tied in.

















Back filled and rough graded. We will do a final grade and then seed the area.

















With this bigger basin installed we shouldn't ever have to deal with this again.










Hope everyone has a great Labor Day Weekend!
