The Campus Rainworks Challenge:
Reduce & treat stormwater
Manages wet weather impacts
Water treatment system
Move stormwater away from built environments
Delivering environmental, social, and economic benefits

3. Ponds The retention (wet)pond permanently holds a pool of water.
The detention (dry) pond is usually dry.
Retention and detention ponds will take stormwater runoff to prevent flooding, contain the surge, releases it slowly to surrounding water sources, and helps prevent downstream erosion.
