Improvement Program for Charleston’s Drainage Ditches

Ditches not only provide an efficient and effective means for the discharge of stormwater but also reduce the level of ground water, provide storage and can reduce pollutants commonly found in stormwater runoff. In neighborhoods with open ditches, a property owner may elect to improve the property by requesting the city to pipe existing drainage ditches. In this program, the property owner will be responsible for the cost of the permit, an engineering fee, materials, and a per-foot cost for labor and equipment. The city of Charleston offers ditch piping services to property owners who wish to make aesthetic improvements by filling existing drainage ditches. Keep in mind, ditches that lie solely within the limits of a private property and are not part of the public drainage system are not eligible for the ditch piping program. An engineer will first inspect the property to review the master drainage and floodplain management plan to determine if it is in an area with a history of flood problems to insure that the work will not adversely affect properties within the drainage basin and to incorporate any recommendations of the plan into the design of the pipe system. During this time there will also be a cost estimate prepared. The estimate provided by the city to the property owner will be valid for a period of three months.
