  M We do not install grates over inlet structures that could be impacted by trash and debris. The grate would act as a restrictor for items that would normally be passable through the system. In other words,placing a grate would only cause more problems with flooding occurring on the street much faster because the grate would collect trash, bottles etc and flood almost instantly. The correction here is to minimize the debris and trash being discarded in city Streets
