Abstract
A storm water filter system apparatus includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet and has a floating filter basket therein having an open end portion. A scoop formed on the front end of the filter basket is positioned to face the inlet to the housing. The filter basket has a least one float attached thereto in a position to float the filter basket in water in the housing to position the filter basket open end and scoop in front of the housing inlet and at least partially above the water level in the housing to capture floating debris from the entering storm water so that the floating filter basket adjusts for varying water levels in the housing.
