What is an erosion and sedimentation control plan?
In addition to the information shown on the site plan, an erosion and sedimentation control plan also must show the locations of sediment barriers, water diversions, temporary stockpiles, constructed ditches and swales, and culverts. The plan must also include permanent stabilization measures for each disturbed area and slope. When an erosion and sedimentation control plan is required in conjunction with an NOI, the plan must include control and stabilization measures for all disturbed areas associated with the development, including lots if the project is a common plan of development (i.e. subdivision). Erosion control during construction and stabilization after construction should use Best Management Practices (BMPs). When carried out properly, these general BMPs are intended to meet the standards of the CGP. More site specific BMPs may be required for sites with additional constraints.
