Sediment And Erosion Control An Inventory Of Current Practices

Sediment and erosion control an inventory of current practices.

The report was prepared to inventory sediment and erosion control practices currently in use nationwide. The inventory represents completion of the first of a six task project designed to develop guidance, including model permit language, for development of NPDES permits for the storm water discharges of construction sites, and for the evaluation of municipal storm water managemnet and sediment and erosion control programs with regard to effective control of construction site discharges to municipal separate storm sewer systems. The sediment and erosion control practice inventory will be combined with information generated under the remaining tasks to assist EPA Region and NPDES approved State in writing NPDES permits for the storm water discharges of the construction industry, and in evaluating the NPDES permit applications for municipal separate storm sewer systems for effective control for construction site storm water discharges.
