Have You Received A Stormwater Notice of Violation?

If you have received a Stormwater Notice of Violation (NOV) for your commercial property or HOA, Dragonfly can help! Stormwater devices, or SCMs, across the Raleigh-Durham area, including Cary, Apex, Morrisville, Chapel Hill, and Wake Forest, fall under local compliance regulations. A Notice of Violation may be issued if your SCM, or stormwater pond, is found to be deficient during a routine inspection or following a complaint. The NOV will outline the repairs or maintenance required to restore compliance otherwise you will face fines and penalties. Dragonfly’s Raleigh-Durham Stormwater Management Team will help you navigate the complex stormwater compliance process and work with you to create a customized plan within your budget to restore compliance and peace of mind.

Stormwater
Maintenance

Our Raleigh-Durham stormwater management program includes the key maintenance and inspection tasks that keep you in compliance. These customized maintenance plans- tailored to the client and the specific stormwater pond, SCM or BMP- will ultimately reduce the cost of the SCM over its life. We provide detailed reports with photos after each service.

Dragonfly's Raleigh Bioretention Services are repairing and rebuilding this bioretention that was overgrown and was not draining.

Stormwater
Compliance

Many municipalities require SCMs to be inspected annually. Because stormwater ponds are constantly changing due to environmental impacts, there will be years when remediation outside of routine maintenance is needed. Our stormwater management team will work with you to create a plan within your budget to return your SCM to a healthy and compliant state.

Dredging &
Erosion Repair

Stormwater ponds with eroded shorelines can lead to safety hazards, accumulated sediment, and compliance issues. Ponds with accumulated sediment can lead to algae, flooding, and non-compliance fines. Our low-impact industry leading solutions like coir log shoreline repairs and hydraulic dredging will restore your SCM or pond safely and efficiently while minimizing impact the surrounding property.

Aquatic Planting

Aquatic plants are a key design element in stormwater ponds and wetlands to help with settling and removal of solids and pollutants. However, aquatic plant requirements and installation can be complex and costly. Dragonfly’s Raleigh-Durham Stormwater Experts will make the planting process seamless and our routine maintenance plans will help maximize survival and establishment.

Conversions

Most Raleigh-Durham stormwater ponds, or SCMs, begin as sediment and erosion control basins during early phases of site development to manage displaced soil and stormwater runoff. Once the site has been stabilized, these basins are converted to their final stormwater control measure. Our stormwater construction teams will work to convert the basin into a post-construction stormwater device.
