[[File:MaintenancePICP.png|thumb|400px|A Vacuum Truck used for [[permeable pavement]] maintenance, which sucks up excess sediment and fines trapped between the pores of block pavers. Conducting this maintenance regularly helps maintain the practice's optimal infiltration rate during large rain events. (Source: STEP).]]

These devices are designed to limit the amount of trash, debris, sediment, oil and grease entering the infiltration system, which helps to prevent clogging and maintain its drainage performance (Source: TRCA, 2018<ref name= "example1" /).]]
