EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION PREVENTION GUIDELINES

 

 

 

The following factors shall be considered in a plan to minimize erosion and sedimentation caused by earth disturbing activities:

  1. Erosion and sedimentation controls are to be installed prior to construction, where possible.
  2. Land disturbances are to be kept to a minimum; restabilization is to be scheduled as soon as possible.
  3. All control measures are to be maintained in effective condition throughout the construction period and until all disturbed areas are thoroughly stabilized.
  4. Additional control measures are to be installed during construction if required by the Planning Engineer.
  5. Sediment removed from control structures is to be disposed of in a manner consistent with the intent of the control plan.
  6. Hay bale filters are to be installed at all culverts, catch basins, and along the toe of all critical cut/fill slopes.
  7. Culvert discharge areas are to be rip-rapped and energy dissipaters are to be used where necessary.
  8. All erosion and sedimentation controls are to be constructed in accordance with standards and specifications of the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Handbook.
  9. The responsibility for implementing the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan must be assigned to an individual. This individual is responsible for informing all concerned of the requirements of the plan, and for seeing that a copy of such plan is transferred to any successor in interest to the title of the land or any portion thereof. This individual must be identified to the Commission prior to the start of any construction.
