From Treatment to Reuse: Stormwater Solutions for a Car Dealership Upgrade

Car Dealership

A car dealership in the process of upgrading presented a clear stormwater management challenge: the site needed systems that could handle water quality treatment and water storage for reuse, all within a tight delivery window. Ocean Protect delivered a complete solution across these requirements.

The Challenge

Car dealerships generate a specific type of stormwater pollution risk. Wash bays, forecourts, and hardstand areas produce runoff carrying pollutants that must be treated before leaving the site. Together, these demands made a robust, end-to-end treatment train essential.

The Solution

Ocean Protect supplied a diverse range of systems to form a complete treatment train across the site:

  • StormFilter® Precast Manhole fitted with 3 units of the 690 PSorb cartridges handled water quality treatment, targeting hydrocarbons and nutrients.
  • Eleven OceanGuards® to remove gross pollutants, total suspended solids and attached pollutants.
  • Three storage tanks with a total capacity of 75,000 litres that gave the client the ability to manifold them together to reduce the risk of leakage.

The treated, stored water is available for reuse on site to wash vehicles, adding value beyond the stormwater treatment function.

By delivering stormwater treatment and storage under one supply, Ocean Protect provided a complete solution that met the site’s environmental requirements while giving the client flexibility and long-term value.
