Document Description
The project involves rehabilitation of a City of Torrance detention basin that discharge to the Herondo Stormwater drain, then conveys the runoff into the Santa Monica Bay, a SWRCB impaired water body. The rehabilitation will involve the introduction of one viewing platform with a pergola, 3 trash interceptors and basin inserts, a crushed aggregate walking trail around the basin with a 1.5" recycled irrigation pipe below the trail, 2 berm along separate baseball fields, 2 pedestrian bridges, an infiltration Basin and the introduction of native vegetation landscaped areas. This rehab is expected to result in reduction of stagnant water (improvement in vector control), reduction of bacterial concentrations (via infiltration basin), and decrease in amount runoff (via infiltration Basins) improvements in aesthetics and public access of areas for recreational uses.
