Costco built a new warehouse grocery store and gas station to serve the Ventura County area. A stormwater management and treatment system was required for the large parking lot.

Solution

Advanced Drainage Systems (ADS) personnel presented a lunch and learn with SeamonWhiteside (SW+) to discuss water quality initiatives prior to the complex being built. During the talk, ADS mentioned its new crate storage product, Aquabox.

After the lunch and learn, SW+ engineers inquired about Aquabox and mentioned the William E. Murray Apartments. ADS completed a design layout showing that the crate system could achieve the desired results.

In total, 8,523 Aquabox modules were used over two separate systems. The systems store stormwater before it is released into a small onsite pond and then into a drainage ditch and the city stormwater system.

Aquabox Drives Complete Stormwater System Success

ADS’ product quality was a key for ADS products to be utilized. But Aquabox was the driving force behind ADS being selected 

Since the contractor, Carolina Site Logistics, had never installed a crate system previously, ADS personnel provided a personal touch in working with the contractor. ADS did pre-construction meetings and also made multiple site visits during the installation. Once Aquabox had been chosen for the system, ADS personnel were able to provide the entire package to capture, convey, store and treat the stormwater.
