reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number 2735. This certification allows you to use General Permit Number 031 when it is
issued by the Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If
you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application.
For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. In

TEMPORARY SILT FENCE: ~
A temporary silt fence is commonly used at the toe of a fill section to prevent off-
site sedimentation. It is made of permeable filter fabric buried at the bottom,
stretched and supported by steel posts. The silt fence reduces the water flow while
retaining the sediment. They may also be used to divert water flow to protected..
outlets. Silt fences need to be checked after each significant rainfall to ensure there
effectiveness. They must be maintained on a regular basis. Silt fences shall not be
installed across streams, ditches, or waterways.
AREAS OF USE:
• At toe of fill sections where sediment runoff can be stored and contained
inside the project limits.
DESIGN CRITERIA:
Material With Wire Without Wire
Fabric Type 3 Class A Type 3 Class B
Steel posts length 5 ft 5 ft:
Post spacing 10 ft. 6 ft. maximum
17 March, 1992
TEMPORARY SLOPE DRAIN WITH EARTH BERM: <-- ?--
A temporary slope drain is a flexible tubing or pipe used to carry concentrated
runoff from the top to the bottom of a cut or fill slope without causing erosion
along the slope. An earth berm is an earth barrier designed to channel runoff into a
number of erosion control devices. A berm is usually constructed' with typical 'on-.
material. T -sections and elbows at the inlets are used to intercept the
directional flow of the runoff, to protect the temporary , slope drains from washouts.
AREAS of USE:
At construction areas where storm water runoff above a cut or fill slope will
'
cause erosion if allowed to flow over a slope..
DESIGN QZITERIA:
Peak runoff from 10 year storm.
T -section shall be used at inlet for multiple directional flow.
Elbows shall be used at inlet for single directional flow.

SILT BASIN TYPE-B: T7
A silt basin type-B is a temporary basin built to collect sediment flowing through a
drainage way. The silt basin is built at the base of the ditch with its length being at
least 2 times the width of the basin. The type-B silt basin is generally built in
conjunction with temporary rock silt checks and other devices that control or slow
down water flow. This device must be monitored closely and cleaned out on a
regular basis until grass is established along the ditch line and sedimentation is no
longer a problem.
AREAS OF USE:
• In conjunction with temporary rock. silt checks and other devices. used in
drainage ditches.
DESIGN CRITERIA:
• Width - variable .
Length - 2 times width
• Depth - 2 ft. minimum storage - 1800 cubic feet/acre (equals L x W x D)

PIPE OUTLET ENERGY bISIPATOIt:
••
A pipe outlet energy disipator shall be used at pipe outlets to slow the water velocities when it.... .
exits the pipe and-flows out ditched or natural waterways. It is an apron of stone of a sufficient
thickness to protect the outlet area from scouring out and causing off-site sedimentation dam-
age. Pipe outlet energy disipators should be built according to the guideline chart shown on
page 52 of this manual.
AREAS OF USE:
Outlets of pipes and culverts to prevent from scouring.
DESIGN CRITERIA:
• In accordance with chart on page 52.
Filter fabric, or six inch layer of gravel, shall be used under stone.
MATERIALS:
Filter Fabric shall meet requirements of section 1056 of Standard Specifications for.
Roads and Structures, January 1, 1990, for type H filter fabric.
