Water Quality Ponds

Ponds that are used to improve the water quality of a stream or river to treat wastewater and stormwater runoff.

Common Problems & Available Solutions


When selecting an armoring solution for erosion control on a slope, consider the type of erosion present, flow rate and velocity, slope length and angle, and whether vegetation growth is desired. Consult with a GEO Pro for guidance.

When it comes to detaining or retaining water in a pond setting, water will naturally evaporate, but what keeps the rest of the water from seeping through the subgrade? Bentonite/Clay and Geosynthetic Liners are the keys to establishing an impermeable system. Contact a GEO Pro to determine which containment solution is best suited for your project.

What are Water Quality Ponds?

Water quality ponds are man-made structures that are designed to improve the quality of stormwater runoff before it is discharged into natural water bodies. These ponds are typically located in urban or suburban areas, where stormwater runoff from streets, parking lots, and other impervious surfaces can carry pollutants such as oil, grease, sediment, and bacteria into streams, rivers, and lakes.

Water quality ponds are designed to capture and treat stormwater runoff, removing these pollutants before the water is released back into the environment. There are several different types of water quality ponds, including detention ponds, retention ponds, and treatment ponds. Detention ponds are designed to temporarily store and release stormwater runoff at a controlled rate, reducing the risk of flooding and erosion. Retention ponds are similar to detention ponds, but they are designed to allow the water to infiltrate into the ground, where it can recharge groundwater aquifers. Treatment ponds are designed to remove pollutants from stormwater runoff through a variety of physical, chemical, and biological processes. Water quality ponds are an important tool for managing stormwater runoff and protecting water quality in urban and suburban areas. For all of these applications, geosynthetics play an important role in slope stability, erosion control, and stormwater treatment.
