 1. Raintank Facilitates Retrofit of Sediment Basin!
 Modular flexibility and high void space % utilized to retrofit open basin into underground post construction detention facility!

RT Pond Retro pic RainTank is a subsurface water storage structure that provides up to 90% of the excavated area for water storage volume. RainTank provided maximum storage for this commercial center retrofit. The added parking area above the functional storm water detention system provides better utilization and more value that the traditional open basin approach.
