culverts, we are requesting authorization under Section 444 of the Clean Water Act.
I am_ sending strzight line diagram with our proposed erosion control constru;,-tion limits at
various sites along the project. Is. addition a typical uection. of the road, cross sections, drawings for
pipe culvert replacements, general notes and standards on erosion control measures and a rnarked
comity map are ,.Inclosed.
ThP best management practices will be used to minimize and control sedimentation and
erosion on this project. The construction foreman will review ah erosion control measures daily to
ensure sedimentation and erosion are being effectively controlled. If the planned devices z>re ..ot
functioning as intended, they will immediately by replaced with better devices. The rock silt screens
and other erosion control devices will be iit place prior to pipe construction and wih rernain in place
until the project is stabilized.
By copy of this letter I am asking Mr. David Yow, Nortls CdrolLza Resources Comarisssion,

A temporary silt fence; is commonly. used at the toe of a fill section to prevent offs-
site sedimentation. It is made of permeable filter fabric buried at the bottom,
st -ctched and supported by steel posts. Ite silt fence reduces the water flow wERe
retaining the sediment. They may also be Izsed t*0 divert water flow to Protected
outlets. Silt fences need to be checked after each sig,i ficant rainfall to ensure there
effectiveness. They east be maintained o.? a regular basis. Silt fences shall Dof b-
inst-Iled across strearns, ditches, or waterways.
AREAS OF USE:
At toe of fill sections where sediment runoff can be stored and contained
inside the project limits.

A rock silt screen is a low-level dam structure to be used in streams below culvert
sites. Rock silt screens shall be used to trap sediment transported by running water
and shall be placed in the stream below the construction site within the right-o
wa,? or easement boundary. The rock silt screen utilizes class B stone lined with, 4rS
or ;,157 stone to produce a ripple-effect in the stream to settle the lzraer sedl.ment
paa- Iles transported in the stream from the conswucCon situ. The trapped ;;edirncn1
shell be cleaned out before the device is removed from the strew.
ARE, AS OF USE:
o Hn live streams below construction sites v.rhere construction occUrs in dr
adjacent to the stream.
In live streams below a culvert construction site.
Where it can be cleaned before it is removed from strearn,
DESitGN CRI' r A:
Structural stone - class B tome
Sediment control stone - # 5 or 57 stove
Dam height - 1.5 ft. minimum and 3 ft.. rriaxinium ( shall not be highcg than
