Catch basin guard

A catch basin face cover for preventing unwanted entry into a catch basin of a curb, the catch basin having a curb wall with an upper portion and a lower portion offset in substantially parallel planes from one another and defining a drain entry therebetween, said catch basin face cover comprising:

• a planar form having a plurality of throughbores, said planar form dimensioned to cover the drain entry;
• a plurality of punch-outs in said planar form for permitting fluid entry into the catch basin through said planar form;
• a first extension of said planar form and a second extension of said planar form, said first extension and said second extension depending from said planar form at substantially right angles forming an "Z" configuration;
• wherein said planar form, said first extension and said second extension are comprised of molded plastic;
• a plurality of securing means for attaching said planar form to the curb wall, each of said plurality of securing means positioned in a different one of said plurality of throughbores;
• and
• a plurality of anchoring means for respectively receiving each one of said plurality of securing means, each of said plurality of securing means positioned in the curb wall and coupled to a different one of said plurality of anchoring means;
• whereby said first extension rests upon the upper portion of the curb wall, the second extension rests upon the lower portion of the curb wall and said planar form covers the drain entry.
