title: Erosion and Sediment Control
…2 unchanged lines
description: >
When to use: Construction-phase erosion prevention and sediment control for land-disturbing activities on commercial, institutional, and industrial building projects, including implementation of the project Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) under the EPA Construction General Permit or the applicable state NPDES stormwater permit. Covers perimeter sediment controls (silt fence, fiber rolls and wattles, compost socks), storm inlet protection, the stabilized construction entrance and wheel wash, sediment traps and sediment basins, check dams, temporary and permanent soil stabilization (temporary and permanent seeding, hydroseeding, mulch, rolled erosion control products and turf reinforcement mats), dust control, dewatering sediment controls, concrete washout, BMP inspection and maintenance, construction sequencing and phasing, and final stabilization and permit termination. Intended to be read alongside the project SWPPP and the civil erosion control plan, which carry the project-specific BMP locations and the stabilization schedule.
− Not intended for: Permanent stormwater management, detention, retention, and post-construction water quality structures (see [[sync/storm-drainage]] for the conveyance piping that connects to them; basin earthwork and outlet structures are designed by the civil engineer of record); permanent landscaping, topsoil placement, and irrigation (see [[sync/landscape-irrigation]]); mass grading, structural fill, compaction, and dewatering means and methods (see [[sync/earthwork]]); permanent pavement and aggregate base (see [[sync/asphalt-paving]]); contaminated-soil and hazardous-material handling, which requires a project-specific remediation plan; and the hydrologic and hydraulic design of the storm system itself.
