b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance
control measures must be such that they equal, or ex e d ,t and requirements specified
in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sed Erosion Control
Manual. The devices shall be maintained on all construction leased borroro sites, and
waste pile (spoil) projects, including contractor-owned or
associated with the project.

4. No Sediment & Erosion Control Measures w/n Wetlands or Waters
Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters without prior
approval by DWQ. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and
waters is unavoidable, then design and placement of temporary erosion control measures shall
not be conducted in a manner that may result in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or stream beds or
banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream of the above structures. All devices shall be
removed and the natural grade restored within two (2) months of the date that the Division of
Land Resources has released the project.
5. If concrete is used during the construction, then a dry work area should be maintained to
prevent direct contact prevent direct contact between curing concrete and stream water.
Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete should not be discharged to surface
waters due to the potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life/fish kills.
6. Work in the Dry
All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area. Approved
best management practices from the most current version of the NC Sediment and Erosion
Control Manual, or the NC DOT Construction and Maintenance Activities Manual, such as
sandbags, rock berms, cofferdams, and other diversion structures shall be used to minimize
excavation in flowing water.
