Check Your Culverts

Are your driveway culverts in working order? Clear culverts allow stormwater to flow properly, stop road washouts, and protect Newfound's water quality. Here are our tips for spring culvert maintenance:

1. Remove rocks, plant material, and debris that has collected around the inlet or outfall. Store collected debris outside of the path of water flow.
2. Ensure the stone or concrete headwalls on either side of the culvert are solid.
3. Use a long-handled garden hoe to remove as much sediment from inside the culvert as possible. In most cases, the remaining sediment will be washed out of the culvert during the next rain storm.
4. If your culvert is over 30% filled with sediment or frequently causes outwashes or erosion, you may benefit from a culvert upgrade.
