Dear Mr. Evans:
In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on July 26,
200, we are forwarding herewith the subject certificate of coverage to discharge under the
subject state - NPDES general permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements
of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between
North Carolina and the US Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as
subsequently amended).
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after
notice to the Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources. The Division may require
modification or revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be
found in Part III, Section E of your permit. At this time, the Wilmington Regional Office has
determined that a Pumping Operation and Monitoring (0&M) Plan is not required for your
site. However, if operations change in a way that have the potential to impact nearby
wetlands, a Pumping 0&M Plan will be required and must be approved by that office. If you
have any questions, please contact Dan Sams at the Wilmington Regional Office at (910)
796-7215 for more information.
Please note that mine dewatering wastewater includes we pit overflows caused
solely bi y direct rainfall and -groundwater seepage for this type of mining operation. Any
discharge of this water (and any stormwater commingled with it) is subject to the effluent
limitations in this permit.

This general permit allows the discharge of stormwater and certain types of
wastewater from your facility. In your application, you specified that only mine dewatering
water would be discharged from this facility. If separate point -source discharges of
stormwater occur (i.e., stormwater not combined with mine dewatering water), you will be
required to adhere to the conditions in this permit for stormwater discharges.
This project is located in one of North Carolina's 20 coastal counties. Coastal
stormwater management rules (15A NCAC 2H .1000) may require an additional State
Stormwater Permit (different from the NPDES mining activities discharge permit). Please
contact Georgette Scott in the Wilmington Regional Office at [phone].to
determine if you will be required to subrnit an application for a State Stormwater permit.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which
may be required by the Division of Energy, Mining, and Land Resources, or permits
required by the Division of Water Resodrees;-Coastal Area Management Act, or any other
federal or local governmental permit that may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Bethany
Georgoulias at telephone number [phone],
Sincerely,
U �

All,
I agree with Bethany on the Blake Evans mine site. I've spoken with Blake in the past about
his NPDES mining requirements. I think that his engineer may have been helping him with
those as well. Blake has been very receptive and easy to work with in doing what is needed
to stay in compliance.

Hi, Carol! This one is still on my desk. I have two others that I'm working on, and I've
got a full schedule with a conference call later today and conference off -site the next two
days. Then I'm out of the office Friday. I'll be back to Blake Evans and the others after
the Labor Day holiday. I'm sorry I can't get to it sooner -- but I did want to touch base
with you on it. The last time I talked with him, Chad felt pretty comfortable with the
status of this one and Mr. Evans' responses to our requests, so I think issuing the NCG02
permit will be pretty straightforward. Getting the permittee up to speed with permit
requirements will be more effort, but that can continue after we get the certificate of
coverage out along with the permit and other information to him. Thanks for the update on
the status of the mining permit! I'll be back in touch next week.
Thanks again,

All, this is what I know about the Blake Evans mine. The mi_ rmit for the_E_v_ans_min`e has3
ca basillybeen issued-as-of-8/9/2013-1ie still has to post the bond before he starts mining
activities. The COE has been out there and has approved his wetland boundaries. Chad asked
for some information during the initial review and he and I met Mr. Blake at the mine back in
the spring. We received the information Chad requested from his consultant some time later.
To my knowledge, no one has discussed the mining NPDES requirements with Mr. Evans. I would
be glad to help with facilitating this process, but since were are still getting our feet wet
with the NPDES permits, I will need some guidance. Please advise.

David, could you let me know the best contacts for NCG02 mining permit discharge applications
in WiRO? I know things are still a little disorganized as they are here for us. We can
understand! I have Anna:Wink, S&P Gravel, and one other in WiRO -- Blake Evans that'Chad's
been working with. We will need to be in touch with regional inspectors in the program to
coordinate approvals.of those NOIs so we can issue the Certificate of Coverage. If you can
direct me to the best people, that would be great. Anna Wink is NOI #NCG020847, S&P Gravel
is NOI #NCG020845, and Blake Evans is #NCG020850. Chad is very familiar with that last one,
but there probably needs to be a DEMLR WiRO person we contact about it as well.
Thanks again!

Bethany,
I have no knowledge of the Anna Wink mine in Carteret that you mentioned, as Joanne or Jean
usually handle Carteret County. I have been working with Blake Evans on the permitting of
his mine site in Columbus County. However, from what I've been instructed, we aren't doing
any mine (NCG020000) reviews or inspections any longer. I was under the impression that
DEMLR would be doing all of that from now on. Also, until our instructions change, I was
told that we will still be handling wetland and stream issues on these sites as well. Even
so, I have been telling the DEMLR folks here that I would be happy to help out as much as I
can until they get comfortable with the NPDES SW program (I was in Brunswick County yesterday
with Boyd Devane and Larry Ward at a mine site trying to help out). I would recommend
contacting the lead stormwater inspector for DEMLR (David Cox) about this as well just so
that he is aware of these sites. Let me know how I can help.

Thanks, Jean. I can follow up later today after a 10 AM meeting.
Just to clarify, someone from the Anna Wink mine #2 (Carteret) was in touch with WiRO, but
I'm not sure about the Blake Evans mine (Columbus). For Anna Wink, the application says they
spoke to you (Jean) on May 21, 2013.
Anna Wink submitted a very brief (1 page) O&M Pumping Plan; there was nothing submitted for
Blake Evans, and the answers about mine dewatering near wetlands are confusing. They say
they are mining about 250' from wetlands, but there's no delineation or mention of need for
0&M. We need to decide whether to accept that one at all.
Thanks for any info! -Bg

Hey Bethany,
Thanks for getting back with me. I'm glad that you were able to get everything from Judy. I've got a copy of everything
here except for the new revised site plans but I was able to look at those from Dan's group. I'm not'concerned about

be complaint with the NCG02 permit in regards to the wetlands standards. It is very rare to have someone who is as
aware and as cautious as Mr. Evans has been for this site and other sites that he is involved with. I'm sure he will have
some questions regarding the monitoring required by the permit (as many people do) so that shouldn't be a problem for
us or Dan's group to give him guidance. Let me know if you guys have any questions or need any info.

Hi Chad,
We got everything from Land Quality last week, and I'm going to have Bradley accept the application / set it up for
processing. I scanned most of the documents (but not the Site Plan or Narrative Mining Plan) and am sending you all in
WiRO = an electronic copy. I'll include this email with the package so he can pass it on to the assigned reviewer (may or
may not be me). Let me know if you want us to forward a full size copy of the submitted site plan and/or mining plan.
I understood from you last week that you are okay with this mine getting a COC.under NCG02, and if there's some kind
i
of Dewatering 0&M Plan to assure no impacts, it will be minimal because of where this mine sits atop of the sand hill
and low risk to impacting the nearby wetlands. That made sense to me. I assume that it's okay for us to proceed with .
the COC without holding out for an O&M Plan, but could you verify that?

Thanks for your help working with the applicant to get all the materials submitted correctly. It's extremely helpful to
have both the Nationwide permit and Wetlands Determination documents included here.
cheers,
Bg

Greg,
Thanks for sending this to me to review.
On #21, mention that the 404/401 was required to build an access road to the site. If you have one, include a copy of
the 404 permit from David Bailey with the Army Corps. Also, make sure to send a signed copy of the wetlands survey in
addition to the Jurisdictional Determination letter from David.
For #24 (Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan) Blake will need to have a SPPP for this site. Check "no" but put a note
on the app describing when Blake will have one developed (ASAP). The things that are needed for the SPPP are listed
under Part III of the NCG02 permit that I gave you for reference. Much of these items were required for submittal to
DWQ in Raleigh for this application and can be used for the SPPP. You and I talked about a few of these things last
Friday, (employee training, fuel storage areas, vehicle maintenance, etc..). If you need help with this part let me know
but I would recommend keeping things simple and using a map to label and describe procedures like we looked at last
Friday.
For #26, check "yes" but an A to C will not be required according to the application due to the design of the site with the
basins to treat the water before discharge,
if you have any more questions let me know.

Hi Chad,
We got everything from Land Quality last week, and I'm going to have Bradley accept the application / set it up for
processing. I scanned most of the documents (but not the Site Plan or Narrative Mining Plan) and am sending you all in
WiRO = an electronic copy. I'll include this email with the package so he can pass it on to the assigned reviewer (may or
may not be me). Let me.know if you want us to forward a full size copy of the submitted site plan and/or mining plan.
I understood from you last week that you are okay with this mine getting a COC under NCG02, and if there's some kind
of Dewatering 0&M Plan to assure no impacts, it will be minimal because of where this mine sits atop of the sand hill
and low risk to impacting the nearby wetlands. That made sense to me. I assume that it's okay for us to proceed with
the COC without holding out for an 0&M Plan, but could you verify that?
Thanks for your help working with the applicant to get all the materials submitted correctly. It's extremely helpful to
have both the Nationwide permit and Wetlands Determination documents included here.
cheers,
Bg

G reg,
Thanks for sending this to me to review.
On #21, mention that the 404/401 was required to build an access road to the site. If you have one, include a copy of
the 404 permit from David Bailey with the Army Corps. Also, make sure to send a signed copy of the wetlands survey in
addition to the Jurisdictional Determination letter from David,

For #24 (Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan) Blake will need to have a SPPP for this site. Check "no" but put a note
on the app describing when Blake will have one developed (ASAP). The things that are needed for the SPPP are listed
under Part III of the NCG02 permit that I gave you for reference. Much of these items were required for submittal to
DWQ in Raleigh for this application and can be used for the SPPP. You and I talked about a few of these things last
Friday, (employee training, fuel storage areas, vehicle maintenance, etc..). If you need help with this part let me know
but I would recommend keeping things simple and using a map to label and describe procedures like we looked at last
Friday.
For #26, check "yes" but an A to C will not be required according to the application due to the design of the site with the
basins to treat the water before discharge.
if you have any more questions let me know.

Tell you what, Chad -- I've scanned what we have so you can have a look. I think we could
hold on to it and process it when the other information comes in, if we know it's coming.
Any review wouldn't begin until we get the rest of it, though.
See attached; I've highlighted the items that are inconsistent or incomplete (especially on
the checklist at the end). There is a very general and small depiction of the location with
roads, but no topographic map or other map with waters are included either. I'll put a copy
of the full site plan in the RO mail box out to -you today. It does not show any wetlands or
nearby receiving waters on it.
I'll let Bradley know he can hold it and wait to assign it until you are able to follow up
with Mr. Evans for the rest of the information.
Thanks so much for your help!

Thanks, Chad. The applicant did not indicate any of that information on his application (in
fact, he put "N/A" on the checklist item about dewatering near wetlands and never mentioned
he'd been in touch with you all about it). None of his plan sheets show any wetlands
delineation or streams nearby either -- surprising to me if you say he had it done. I'm
struggling with whether to tell Bradley to accept this application or return it as
incomplete. I know we can accept an NOI without a full written O&M Pumping Plan, but I think
the rest of the submittal is lacking. -Bg

Bethany,
I've been working with Mr. Evans on his mine site in Columbus. They have had the wetlands
delineated and approved by the USACE. The 404/401 permit/wqc were issued for the entrance
road for the pit as well. I have not seen a map but they are very obvious on the site due to
the topography there. The wetlands are much closer than 250 feet, however the mine site sits
atop a sand hill and the pit,will only be 10 feet in depth which should not put it in danger
of dewatering the adjacent wetlands due to their elevation being lower than 10 feet from the
top of the mine. They will be dewatering and I've met with Mr. Evans on the site 3 times so
far. He has an acceptable plan for the discharge of the pit water although I told him that
we needed a plan in writing. I commented on the DEMLR mining application a month or so ago.
Hope this helps,
Chad

Anna Wink submitted a very brief (1 page) 0&M Pumping Plan; there was nothing submitted for
Blake Evans, and the answers about mine dewatering near wetlands are confusing. They say
they are mining about 250' from wetlands, but there's no delineation or mention of need for

NARRATIVE
NOTE: To be reviewed in conjunction with "Mining Plan for BIake Evans", Hanover Design
Services, P.A., Drawing No. 12659.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION -
The purpose of this project is for the removal of borrow material. The Mining Plan is to
identify measures to be implementod to minimize impacts on neighboring properties by
controlling erosion during construction and by reclaiming the project site throughout the
duration of excavation and once the mining is complete.
The site is located off of Singletary Road in Columbus County (see location. map). The total
project area is 80.4 acres, 9.1 acres of which are proposed to be disturbed for excavation and
overflow swale. The site is partially wooded, however, consists of mostly previously
timbered open pasture with fairly gently sloping topography.
SOILS -
The soils in the project area are mostly Wagram loamy fine sand (WaB) and Lynchburg fine
sanely loam (Ly); well drained soils.

PLANNED EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL PRACTICES -
1. TEMPORARY GRAVEL CONSTRUCTION ENTRANCE
Practice 6.06
Shall be installed at the entrance ofthe project on the permanent access/baul road directly abutting
Singletary Road. Drainage is away from the road and sedimentation will be controlled with
downstream practices. During wet weather it may be necessary to wash truck tires at this location.
2. LAND GRADING
Practice 6.02
Grading should be limited to areas as shown on the plans. Cut and fill slopes shall be 3.1 or flatter
except where specifically indicated.
3. SEDIMENT FENCE
Practice 6.62
Sediment fencing should be installed as shown on the Plan, and around any temporary stockpile
areas as necessary to prevent any interior areas from eroding onto adjacent areas.
4. GRASS -LINED CHANNELS
Practice 6.30
All overflow swales to be graded to design configuration, seeded, and stabilized if necessary with
temporary straw -net liners to collect and convey site water off site as shown on plan. After final
project stabilization, swale to be re -graded and cleaned of siltation as needed to establish designed
contours for stormwater conveyance.
5. TEMPORARY SEDIMENT TRAP
Practice 6.60
Temporary sediment trap is to be installed at location indicated on the plans as shown. The
temporary sediment trap / dewatering portion of the rock darn sediment basin is to be used as a
secondary treatment measure to remove sediment from water pumped out of the initial excavation
(settling/dewater area — under one acre in size). Once this area is established, it will function as a
sediment basin and will grow as the excavation continues and will be the primary means of treatment
on site.
6. SEDIMENT BASIN W/ ROCK DAM
Practice 6.63
The Sediment Basin is to be constructed first (see Construction Schedule) and is the primary
Practice to prevent sediment from leaving the site.

7. CONSTRUCTION ROAD STABILIZATION
Practice 6.80
Prior to commencement of excavation, hauling roads are to be temporarily stabilized by placing sub-
base course of approved stone, to reduce erosion and dust.
CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE and CHRONOLOGICAL SEQUENCE OF LAND DISTURBING
ACTIVITIES —
1. Obtaining approval of Flan and any necessary permits and holding a pre -construction
conference prior to commencement any work.
2. Installation of Sediment Trap.
3. Clearing, stumping, and construction of permanent access/haul road
4. Clearing and stumping of access/haul road to excavation area and associated sediment
fencing downstream of access/haul road.
5. Installation of Gravel Construction Entrance
6. Clearing and stumping of first five (5) acres of Lake/excavation area for truck turn around and
stockpile location and associated sediment fencing
7. Construction of Lake emergency overflow swale and erosion control sediment trap
8 . Initial excavation consisting of stripping and removal of topsoil in stockpile area.
9. Construction of settling/dewatering area. This area will serve as a self-contained dewatering area.
10. Construction of temporary diversions as needed to sediment trap area.
11. As 2 to 3 acres of excavation have been completed in the manner mentioned above, lake banks
will be shaped, graded to 5 to 1 slopes, mulched, seeded and landscaped as shown on the plans.
12. The settling/dewatcring area will remain as the finished product, keeping the excavation and
pumping to a minimum.
13. Once the excavation is completed, temporary erosion control measures will be removed. Access road
to site and earthen and vegetated buffers will remaui permanently .

MAINTENANCE PLAN -
Indicated on Plan
1. All measures to be inspected weekly and after any rainfall event and needed repairs made
immediately.
2. All seeded areas shall be fertilized, mulched, and re -seeded as necessary, according to
specifications provided, to maintain a suitable vegetative cover.
3. Sediment to be removed from ditches and Grass -lined Channels when they are approximately
50% filled or sediment level is within T of top of ditch bank.
4. Sediment to be removed from behind the Silt Fence when it becomes 0.5' deep. Fencing to be
repaired as needed to maintain a barrier.
5. Construction entrance to be maintained in such a manner as to prevent mud or sediment from
leaving the construction site. Periodic topdressing with 2-inch stone may be required. Inspect after
each rainfall and immediately remove all objectionable materials spilled, washed, or tracked onto public
roadways.
6. Inspect temporary sediment traps after each period of significant rainfall. Remove sediment and
restore the trap to its original dimensions when the sediment has accumulated to 1/2 the design depth of
the trap. Place the sediment that is removed in the designated disposal area and replace the
contaminated part of the gravel facing. Check the structure for damage from erosion or piping.
Periodically check the depth of the spillway to ensure it is a minimum of 1.5 ft below the low point of
the embankment. Immediately fill any settlement of the embankment to slightly above design grade.
Any riprap displaced from the spillway roust be replaced immediately. After all sediment producing
areas have been permanently stabilized, remove the structure and all unstable sediment. Smooth the
area to blend with the adjoining areas and stabilize properly.
VEGETATIVE PLAN -
1. Permanent vegetation to be established in accordance with specifications shown on sheet 4, typical
seeding specifications taken from "North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and
Design Manual", Section 6.11, latest version.

2. Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. For sites where multiple outfalls
are separated by distances that preclude collection within 30 minutes of each discharge event is not
feasible, begin collection procedures within 30 minutes and continue until all outfalls with discharges are
sampled. Documentation explaining why it was not possible to take samples within the first 30 minutes
must be kept in the SPPP.
3. Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless
representative outfall status (ROS) has been granted and documented by the Division of Water Quality. A
copy of the letter granting ROS shall be kept on site.
4. Turbidity may be monitored at the Stormwater Discharge Outfall. Alternatively, the permittee may
choose to monitor turbidity in the receiving water, directly upstream and downstream of the stormwater
discharge outfall(s).
5. For each sampled representative storm event the total precipitation must be recorded. An on -site rain
gauge or local rain gauge reading must be recorded.
6. Total flow shall be: (a) measured continuously, or (b) calculated based on the amount of area draining to
the outfall, the amount of impervious area, and the total amount of rainfall, or (c) estimated by the
measurement of now at 20 minute intervals during the rainfall event. Total rainfall precipitation and
duration of the rainfall event refers to the representative storm event sampled.
All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event at j&ch
stormwater discharge cutfall [SDO). The permit allows the permittee to monitor turbidity at the
SDO or up- and downstream of the SDO; however, the permittee should consider regular turbidity
sampling up- and downstream of the discharge(s) when feasible to ensure compliance with water
quality standards.

Permit No. NCGO20000
A representative storm event for the purposes of this General Permit is a storm event that
measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall. The time between this storm event and the previous
storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches must beat least 48 hours. One storm event may
have a time periodwithin it that has no precipitation. This time period may last up to 10 hours. For
example, if it rains but stops before producing any collectable discharge, a sample may be collected if
the next rain producing a discharge begins within 10 hours.
The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule specified in
'fable 2. A minimum of 60 [lays must separate each sample event unless monthly monitoring
has been instituted under a Tier 2 response. Failure to comply with semi-annual MgiliLorhig in
accordance with permit terms -far -any six-month monitoring_pgrlgd ii mgdiatev triggers monthly
monitoring for the remaining hermit term, unless adverse weather conditions prevent sample
collection during the sample collection period. Inability to sample due to adverse weather
conditions must be documented in the SPPP with date, time and written narrative (seeAdverse
Weather in Definitions) and reported on the Annual Summary DMR

1. Maintain semi-annual monitoring during permit renewal process (unless tiers prompt monthly). If at the
expiration of the General Permit, the permittee has submitted an application for renewal of coverage
before the submittal deadline, the permittee will be considered for renewed coverage. The applicant
must continue monitoring until the renewed Certificate of Coverage is issued.
2. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must record "No Flow" or "No
Discharge" within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period in the SPPP. "No Flow" or "No
Discharge" shall be reported on the Annual Summary Discharge Monitoring Reports (I)MR). This DMR is
to be submStted to the Division s Central Office by March 1 of each year.
3. Monitoring periods remain constant throughout the five-year permit term (from January 1, 2010 to
December 31, 2014).
In all cases, the permittee shall report (as required in Part IV, Section E.) the analytical results frorn
each sample within the monitoring period. The permittee shall compare those results to the
benchmark values in Table 3. Exceedences of benchmark values require the permittee to increase
monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, send the monthly monitoring
results to the appropriate Regional Office, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices

Temporary Craves Construction Entrance/Exit
Specif cation # 6 06
Construction Specifications
1. Clear the entrance and exit area of all vegetation, roots and other objectionable material and
properly grade it.
2. Place the gravel to the specific grade and dimensions shown on the plans and smooth it.
3. Pro%dde drainage to carry water to a sediment trap or other suitable outlet.
4 Use geotextile fabrics because they improve stability of the foundation in locations subject to
seepage or high water table.
Maintenance
Maintain the gravel pad in a condition to prevent mud or sediment from leaving the construction
site. This may require periodic topdressing with 2-inch stone. Mier each rainfall, inspect any
structure used to trap sediment and clean it out as necessary. Immediately remove all
objectionable materials spilled, hashed, or tracked onto public roadways.

Land Grading
Specification 9 6.02
Construction Specifications
1. Construct and maintain all erosion and sedimentation control practices and measures in
accordance with the approved sedimentation control plan and construction schedule.
2. Remove good topsoil from areas to be graded and filled, and preserve it for use in finishing
the grading of all critical areas.
3. Scarify areas to be topsoiled to a minimum depth of 2 inches before placing topsoil (Practice
6.04, Topsciling).
4. Clear and grub areas to be filled to remove trees, vegetation, roots, or other objectionable
material that would affect the planned stability of the ff11.
5. Ensure that fill material is free of brush, rubbish, rocks, logs, stumps, building debris, and
other materials inappropriate for constructing stable fills.
6. Place all fill in layers not to e%ceed 9 inches in thickness, and compact the layers as required
to reduce erosion, slippage, settlement, or other related problems.
7. Do not incorporate frozen material or soft, mucky, or highly compressible materials into fill
slopes.
8. Do not place fill on a frozen foundation. due to possible subsidence and slippage.
9. Keep diversions and other water conveyance measures free of sediment during all phases of
development.
10. Handle seeps or springs encountered during construction in accordance with approved
methods (Practice 6.81, Subsurface Drain).
11. Permanently stabilize all graded areas immediately after final grading is completed on each
area in the grading plan. Apply temporary stabilization measures on all graded areas when
work is to be interrupted or delayed for 30 working days or longer,
12. Show topsoil stockpiles, borrow areas, and spoil areas on the plans, and make sure they are
adequately protected from erosion. Include final stabilization of these areas in the plan.
Mai ntell ance
Periodically chock all graded areas and the supporting erosion and sedimentation control
practices, especially after heavy rainfalls. Promptly remove all sediment fi•om diversions and
other water -disposal practices. If washouts or breaks occur, repair them immediately. Prompt
maintenance of small eroded areas before they become significant gullies is an essential part of an
effective erosion and sedimentation control plan.

Construction Road Stabilization
Specifcation 4 6.80
Construction Specifications
1.
Clear roadbed and parking areas of all vegetation, roots and other objectionable material
2.
Ensure that road construction follows the natural contours of the terrain if it is possible.
3.
Locate parking areas on naturally flat areas if they are available. Keep grades sufficient for
drainage but generally not more than 2 to 3%.
4.
Provide surface drainage, and divert excess runoff to stable areas by using rater bars or
turnouts (References: Runoff Control Measures).
5.
Keep cuts and fills at 2: I or flatter for safety and stability and to facilitate establishment of
vegetation and maintenance.
6.
Spread a 6-inch course of "ABC" crushed stone evenly over the full width of the road and
smooth to avoid depressions.
7.
Where seepage areas or seasonally wet areas must be crossed, install subsurface drains or
gpoteKtile fabric cloth before placing the crushed stone (Practice 6.81, Subsurface Drain):
8.
Vegetate all roadside ditches, cuts, fills and other disturbed areas or otherwise appropriately
stabilize as soon as grading is complete (References: Surface Stabilization).
9. Provide appropriate sediment control measures to prevent off -site sedimentation.
Maintenance
Inspect construction roads and parking areas periodically for condition of surface. Topdress with
new gravel as needed. Check road ditches and other seeded areas for erosion and sedimentation
after runoff -producing rains. Maintain all vegetation in a healthy, vigorous condition, Sediment -
producing areas should be treated immediately.

1 Ensure that the subgrade for the filter and riprap follows the required lines and grades shown
in the plan. Compact any fill required in the subgrade to the density of the surrounding
undisturbed material. Low areas in the subgrade on undisturbed soil may also be filled by
increasing the riprap thickness.
2. The riprap and gravel filter must conform to the specified grading limits shown on the plans.
3. Filter cloth, when used, must meet design requirements and be properly protected from
punching or tearing during installation. Repair any damage by removing the riprap and
placing another piece of filter cloth over the damaged area. All connecting jouits should
overlap a minimum of 1 ft. If the damage is extensive, replace the entire filter cloth.
4. Rip rap maybe placed by equipment, but take care to avoid damaging the filter.
5. The minimum thickness of the riprap should be 1.5 times the maximum stone diameter.
6. Riprap may be field stone or rough quarry stone. It should be bard, angular, highly weather -
resistant and well graded.
7. . Construct the apron on zero grade with no overfall at the end. Make the top of the riprap at
the doNvristream end level with the receiving are or slightly below it.
S. Ensure that the apron is properly aligned with the receiving stream and preferably straight
throughout its length. If a curve is needed to fit site conditions, place it in the upper section
of the apron.
4, Immediately after construction, stabilize all disturbed areas with vegetation (Practice 6.14,
Temporary Seeding, and 6.11, Permanent Seeding).
Maintenance
Inspect riprap outlet stnictures after heavy rains to see if any erosion around or below the riprap

Sediment Basin
Specifications # 6.61
Construction Specifications
1. Site preparations ---Clear, grub and strip topsoil from areas under the embankment to remove
trees, vegetation, roots and other objectionable material. Delay clearing the pool area until
the dam is complete and then remove brush, trees and other objectionable materials to
facilitate sediment cleanout. Stockpile all topsoil or soil containing organic matter for use on
the outer shell of the embankment to facilitate vegetative establishment. Place temporary
sediment control measures below the basin as needed.
2. Cut-off trench —Excavate a cut-off trench along the centerline of the earth fill embankment.
Cut the trench to stable soil material, but in no case make it less than 2 ft, deep. The cut-off
trench must extend into both abutments to at least the elevation of the riser crest. Make the
minimum bottom width wide enough to permit operation of excavation and compaction
equipment but in no case less than 2 ft. Make side slopes of the trench no steeper than 1:1.
Compaction requirements are the same as those for the embankment. Keep the trench dry
during backfilling and compaction operations.
3. Embankment —Take fill material from the approved areas shown on the plans. It should be
clean mineral soil, free of roots, woody vegetation, rocks and other objectionable material.
Scarify areas on which fill is be placed before placing fill. The fill material must contain
sufficient moisture so it can be formed by hand into a ball without crumbling. If water canbe
squeezed out of the ball, it is too wet for proper compaction. Place fill material in 6 to 8-inch
�.. continuous layers over the entire length of the fill area and then compact it. Compaction may
be obtained by routing the construction hauling equipment over the fill so that the entire
surface of each layer is traversed by at least one wheel or tread track of the heavy equipment,
or a compactor may be used. Construct the embankment to an elevation 10% higher than the
design height to alloNv for settling.
4. Conduit spillways —Securely attach the riser to the barrel or barrel stub to make a watertight
structural connection. Secure all coruiections between barrel sections by approved watertight
assemblies. Place the barrel and riser on a firm, smooth foundation of impervious soil. Do
not use pervious material such as sand, gravel, or crushed stone as backfill around the pipe
or anti -seep collars. Place the fill material around the pipe spillway in 4-inch layers and
compact it under and around the pipe to at least the same density as the adjacent
embankment. Care must be taken no to raise the pipe from firm contact with its foundation
when compacting under the pipe haunches.
Place a minimum depth of 2-t. of hand -compacted backfill over the pipe spillway before
crossing it with construction equipment. Anchor the riser in place by concrete or other
satisfactory means to prevent flotation, In no case should the pipe conduit be installed by
cutting a trench through the dam after the embankment is complete.
5. Emergency spillway —Install the emergency spillway in undisturbed soil, The achievement of
planned elevations, grade, design width, and entrance and exit channel slopes are critical to
the succmful operation of emergency spillway.

b. Inlets=Discharge water into the basin in a manner to prevent erosion. Use diversions with
outlet protection to divert sediment -laden water to the upper end of the pool area to improve
basin trap effeiency (References: Runoff Control Measures and Outlet Protection).
7. Erosion control —Construct the structure so that the disturbed area is minimized. Divert
surface water away from bare areas. Complete the embankment before the area is cleared.
Stabilize the emergency spillway embankment and all other disturbed areas above the crest of
the principal spillway immediately after construction (References: Surface Stab itization),
8. Safety —Sediment basins may attract children and can be dangerous. Avoid steels side slopes,
and fence and mark basins with wanting signs if trespassing is likely. Follow all state and
local requirements,
Maintenance
Check sediment basins after periods of significant runoff. Remove sediment and restore the basin
to its original dimensions when sediment accumulates to one-half the design depth.
Check the embankment, spillways, and outlet for erosion damage, and inspect the embankment
for piping and settlement. Make all necessary repairs immediately. Remove all trash and other
debris from the riser and pool area,

Temporary Seeding
Specification # 610
Specifications
Complete grading before preparing seedbeds and install all necessary erosion control
practices, such as dikes, waterways and basins. Minimize steep slopes because they
make seedbed preparation difficult and increase the erosion hazard. if soils become
compacted during grading, loosen them to a depth of 6-8 inches using a ripper, harrow, or
chisel plow.
Seedbed Preparation
Good seedbed preparation is essential to successful plant establishment. A good seedbed
is well -pulverized, loose and uniform. Where hydroseeding methods are used, the
surface may be lift with a more irregular surface of large clods and stones.
Liming - Apply lime according to soil test recommendations. If the pH(acidity) of the
soil is not known, an application of ground agricultural limestone at the rate of 1 to 1 1/2
tons/acre on coarse -textured soils and 2-3 tons/acres on fine -textured soils is usually
sufficient. Apply limestone uniformly and incorporate into the top 4-6 inches of soil.
Soils with a pH of 6 or higher need not be limed,
Fertilizer- Base application rates on soil tests. When these are not possible, apply a 10-
10-10 grade fertilizer at 700-1,000 lb./acre. Both fertilizer and lime should be
incorporated into the top 4-6 inches of soil. If a hydraulic seeder is used, do not mix seed
and fertilizer more than 30 minutes before application.
Surface roughening- If recent tillage operations have resulted in a loose surface,
additional roughening may not be required except to break up large clods. If rainfall
cases the surface to become sealed or crusted, loosen it just prior to seeding by disking,
raking, harrowing, or other suitable methods, Groove or furrow slopes steeper than 3:1 on
the contour before seeding (Practice 6:03, Surface Roughening).
Plant Selection
Select an appropriate species or species mixture from Table 6.10a, for seeding in late
winter and early spring, Table 6.1Ob for summer, and Table 6.1 Oc for fall..

v
Seeding
Evenly apply seed using a cyclone seeder (broadcast), drill, cultipacker seeder, or
hydroseeder. Use seeding rates given in Table 6.10a-6.10c. Broadcast seeding and
hyroseeding are appropriate for steep slopes whey equipment cannot be driven. Hand
broadcasting is not recommended because of the difficulty in achieving a uniform
distribution.
Small grains should be planted no more than 1 inch deep, and grasses and legumes no
more than inch. Broadcast seed must be covered by raking or chain dragging, and then
lightly firmed with a roller or cultipacker. Hydroseeded mixtures should include a wood
fiber (cellulose) mulch.
Mulching.
The use of an appropriate mulch will help ensure establishment under normal conditions
and is essential to seeding success under harsh site condition (Practice 6.14, Mulching).
Harsh site conditions include:
-seeding in fail for winter cover (wood fiber mulches are not considered adequate for this
use),
-slopes steeper than 3,1,
-excessively hot or dryweather,
-adverse soils(shaliow, rocky, or high in clay or sand), and
-areas receiving concentrated flow.
If the area to be mulched is subject to concentrated waterfiow, as in channels, anchor
mulch with netting (Practice 6.14, Mulching).

Specifications # 6.11
Specifications
Seedbed RegWrements
Establishment of vegetation should not be attempted on sites that are unsuitable due to
inappropriate soil texture (Table 6.1 la), poor drainage, concentrated overland flow, or steepness
of slope until measures have been taken to correct these problems.
To maintain a good stand of vegetation, the soil must meet certain minimum requirements as a
growth medium. The existing soil should have these criteria:
- Enough fine-grained (silt and clay) material to maintain adequate moisture and nutrient
supply (available -,eater capacity of at least .05 inches water to I inch of soil).
- Sufficient pore space to permit root penetration.
- Sufficient depth of soil to provide an adequate root zone. The depth to rock or impermeable
layers such as hardpans should be 12 inches or more, except on slopes steeper than 2:1
where the addition of soil is not feasible.
- A favorable pH range for plant growth, usually 6.0-6.5.
- Freedom from large roots, branches, stones, large clods of earth, or trash of any kind. CIods
and stones may be left on slopes steeper than 3:1 if they are to be hydroseeded.
If any of the above criteria are not met-i.e., if the existing soil is too coarse, dense, shallow or
acidic to foster vegetation —special amendments are required. The soil conditioners described
below may be beneficial or, preferably, topsoil may be applied in accordance with Practice 6.04,
Topsoiling.
Soil Conditioners
In order to improve the structure or drainage characteristics of a soil, the following material may
be added. These amendments should only be necessary where soils have limitations that make
them poor for plant growth or for fine turf establishment (see Chapter 3, Vegetative
Considerations).
Peat -Appropriate types are sphagnum moss peat, hypnum moss peat, reedsedge peat, or peat
bumus, all from fresh -water sources. Peat should be sluedded and conditioned in storage piles for
at least 6 months after excavation.
Sand -clean and free of toxic materials
Vermiculite -horticultural grade and free of toxic substances.
Rotted manure -stable or cattle mamire not containing undue amounts of straw or other bedding
materials.
Thoroughly rotted sawdust- free of stones and debris. Add 6 lb, Of nitrogen to each cubic yard.
Sludge -Treated sewage and industrial sludges are available in various forms: these should be used
only in accordance with local, State and Federal regulations.

{ Species Selection
Use the key to Permanent Seeding Mixtures (Table 6.1 lb) to select the most appropriate seeding
mixture based on the general site and maintenance factors. A listing of species, including
scientific names and characteristics, is given ux Appendix 8.02.
Seedbed Preparation
Install necessary mechanical erosion and sedimentation control practices before seeding, and
complete grading according to the approved plan.
Lime and fertilizer needs should be determined by soil tests. Soil testing is performed free of
charge by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture soil testing Iaboratory. Directions,
sample cartons, and information sheets are available through county. Agricultural extension
offices or from NCDA . Because the NCDA soil testing lab requires 1-6 %c,eeks for sample turn-
around, sampling must be planned well in advance of final grading. Testing is also done by
commercial laboratories.
When soil test are not available, follow rates suggested on the indilridual specification sheet for
the seeding mix chosen (Tables 6.11c through 6.1 Iv). Applications rates usually fall into the
following ranges:
- Ground agricultural limestone
Light -textured, sandy soils; 1-1 %tons/acre
Hcavy textured, clayey soils 2-3 tons/acre
- Fertilizer:
Grasses 800-1200 lb/acre of 10-10-10 (or the equivalent)
Grass -legume mixtures: 800-1200 lb/acre of 5-10-10 (or the equivalent)
Apple time and fertilizer evenly and incorporate into the top 4-6 inches of soil by dishing or other
suitable means. Operate machinery on the contour. When using a hydroseeder, apply time, and
fertilizer to a rough, loose surface.
Roughen surfaces according to Practice 6.03, Surface Roughening.
Complete seedbed preparation by breaking up large clods and raking into a smooth, uniform
surface (slope less than 11) Fill hi or level depressions than can collect water. Broadcast seed

1. Remove all trees, brush, stumps, and other objectionable material from the foundation area
and dispose of properly.
2. Excavate the channel and shape it to neat lines and dimensions shown on the plans plus a 0.2
ft ovcrcut around the channel perimeter to allow for bulking during seedbed preparations and
sod buildup.
3. Remove and properly dispose of all excess soil so that surface water may enter the channel
freely.
4. The procedure used to establish grass in tha channel will depend upon the severity of the
conditions and selection of species. Protect the channel with mulch or a temporary liner
sufficient to withstand anticipated velocities during the establishment period (Appendix
8.05).
Maintenance
(luring the establishment period, check grass -lined channels after every rainfall. Afler grass is
established, periodically check the channel; check it after every heavy rainfall event. Immediately
make repairs. It is particularly important to check the channel outlet and all road crossings for
bank stability and evidence of piping or scour holes. Remove all significant sediment
accumulations to maintain the designed carrying capacity. Keep the grass in a health, vigorous
condition at all times, since it is the primary erosion protection for the channel (Practice 6.11,

Conditions Where The rock dainmaybe isedindrainage areas too large for the use ofatemparary
PC�CtICC'. ,� ilsedu-nent trap. The height of the dam is limited to 8 feet, and drainage area
pe5 should be no larger than 10 acres.
The rock dam is preferred where a stable, earthen -embankment would be
difficult to construct, and riprap and gravel arse readily available. The site
must be accessible for periodic sediment removal.
A rock dam should not be located in a intermittent or perennial stream.
Planning A sediment basin formed by a rock embankment is used primarily where it is
Considerations desirable to have the top of the structure serve as the overflow outlet and where
suitable rack is readily available, A long weir crest is designed to keep flow
depth shallow aaad discharge velocities low_ The inside face of the rock dam
must be covered with gravel to reduce the rate of seepage through the darn so
that a sediment pool will form during runoff events. The pool should drain
i slowly through the gravel.
The abutrneuts of the rock dam must be higher than the top of the darn to
prevent any water from flowing against the soil. Suitable filter fabric should
be placed between the rock structure and its soil base and abutments. This
practice prevents "piping" or soil movement in the foundation and abutments.
Rock should extend do«gnsiream from the tot of the dam, on zero grade, and a
sufficient distance to stabilize flow and prevent erosion.

• intercept runoff from disturbed areas;
• are accessible for periodic sediment removal; and
• interfere minimally with construction activities.
Basin volarne—The voliune of the basin should be at least 3600 cubic feet
per acre based on disturbed area draining into the basin, and measured 1 foot
below the spillway crest. Asediment cleanout elevation, where the sediment
pool is 50% full, should be marked in the field with a permanent stake,

adequate trapping efficiency:
• provide a surface area of 0.01 acres (435 square feet) per cfs based on the
area draining to the rock dam.
• locate sediment inflow to the basin away from the dam to prevent short

Definition A rock embankment located to capture sediment in triaturally formed drainage
feature.
Purpose To trap sediment on the construction site, and. prevent off site sedimentation in
streams, lakes, and drainageways.
Conditions Where The rock dam may be used in drainage areas too large for the use ofatemporary
Practice Applies sediment trap. The height of the dam is limited to $ feet, and drainage area
should be no larger than 10 acres.
The rock dam is preferred where a stable, earthea'embankment would be
difficult to construct, and riprap and gravel are readily available. The site
must be accessible for periodic sediment removal.
A rock dam should not be located in a intermittent or perennialstreanz
Planning A stdiurut basin formcd by a rock embankment is used primarily where it is
Considerations desitable to have the top of the stnxturt som as the overflow outlet and wheTe
suitable rock is readily available. A long weir crest is designed to keep flow
depth shallow and discharge velocities low. The inside face of the rock dam
must be covered with gravel to reduce the rate of seepage through the dart so
�= that a sediment pool will form during =off events. The pool should drain
slowly through the gravel.
The abutments of the rack dam must be higher than the top of the dam to
prevent any water from flowing against the soil. Suitable filter fabric should
be placed between the rock structure and its soil base and abutments. This
practice prevents'.piping" or sail movement in the foundation and abutments.
Rock should extend downstream from the toe of the dam, en zero grade, and a
sufflciew distance to stabilize flow and prevent erasion -

Basin locations select areas that
• provide a large sterface area to trap sediment;
• intercept runoff fv*in disturbed areas;
• are accessible for periodic sediment removal; and
• interfere minimally with construction activities.
Basin volume -The volume of the basin should be at least 3600 cubic feet
pet acre based on disturbed area draining into the basin, and measured I foot
below the spillway crest. Asediment cleanout elevation, where the sediment
pool is 50% full, should be marked in the field with a permanent stake.
Trap of dency---fire following design elements must 'be provided for
adequate trapping efficiency
• provide a surface area of 0.01 acres (435 square feet) per cfs based on the
area draining to the rock dam.
• locate sediment inflow to the basin away from the dam to prevent short
circuits from inlets to the nutlet;
• provide porous baffles (Practice 645, Ponmv Baffl=); and
• excavate 1 S feet of the depth of the basin below grade, and a minimum
of 2 feet above grade.
Spillway rapacity -The spillway should carry peak runoff fur a IG-year
storm with maximum flow depth of 6 inches and a minimum freeboard of i
foot. The top of the rock embankment may serve as the spillu-ay,
Embankment -
Top width--• 5 feet minimum
Side Slopes- Maximum: 2:I upstream slope
3:1 downstream slope
hock abutmeats should extend to an elevation at least 2 feet above the spillway.
Abutments should be 2 feet thick with 2:1 side slopes. The rock abutments
should extend down the downstream face of the dam to the toe, at least 1 foot
higher than the rest of the dam to protect the earth abutments from scour.
Outlet protection -A rock apron, at least 1.5 feet thick, should extend
downstream from the toe of the dam on zero grade. A sutftcieat distance or
a distance equal to the height of the dam (whichever is greater) is needed to
prevent channel erosion.
Rock fell -Rock should bo well graded, hlud, erosion resistant stone with a
minimum dw size of 12 inches. Typically, It rode dam should be constructed of
a downstream layer ofClass 11 riprap providing 3 feet of the crest width and an
upstream layer of C[mm 3 riprap providing 2 feet of the crest width.
Protection from "piping" -To prevent soil movement and piping under the
dam, the enure foundation including both earth abutments must be covered
by filter fabric. Overlap 1 foot at all joints, with the upstream strip over the
downstream strip.
Hosin dewatering-The entire upstream face of the rock structure should be
covered with fine gravel CNC DOT #57 or #5 washed stone) a minimum of I
foot thick to reduce the drainage rate,

Remove the structure and any unstable sediment immediately after the
Construction site has been perms mently stabilized- Smooth the basin site to
blend with the surrounding area and stabilize. All water and sediment should
be removed from the basin prior to darn removal. Sediment should be placed
in designated disposal areas and not allowed to flow into streams or drainage
ways during structure removal.

CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE and CHRONOLOGICAL SEQUENCE OF LAND
DISTURBING ACTIVITIES -
1, Obtaln approval of Plan and any necessary permits, and hold
a pre -construction conference prior to commencing any work,
2. Installation of Sediment Trap at end of permanent access/haul road.
3. Clearing, stumping, and construction of permanent access/haul rood.
4. Clearing and stumping of access/haul road to Lake/excavation area,
and associated sediment fencing downstream of access/haul road.
5. Installation of Gravel Construction Entrance.
6, Clearing and stumping of first five (5) acres of Lake/excavation
area for truck turn around and stockpile location and associated
sediment fencing,
7. Construction of Lake emergency overftow swaLe and erosion control
sediment trap.
a. Initial excavation consisting of stripping and removal of topsoll
In stockpile area (within Lake excavation area). Construction of
earthen berm/sound barrier, Creation of vegetated buffer.
9. Stockpiling of 0.5 to 1,0 acres of material for creation of settling/

13. Once the Lake is completed, temporary haul roads will be removed and
reclaimed Temporary erosion control measures wItt be removed. Access
road to site and earthen and vegetated buffers will remain permanently.
MAINTENANCE PLAN -
1. All measures to be inspected weekly and after any rainfall
event and needed repairs made immediately,
2. All seeded areas shall be fertilized, mulched, and re -seeded
as necessary, according to specifications provided, to
maintain a suitable vegetative cover.
3. Sediment to be removed from ditches and Grass -lined Channels
when they are approximately 50% filled or sediment level. is
within 2' of top of ditch bank.
4. Sediment to be removed from behind the Silt Fence when it
becomes 0,5' deep, Fencing to be repaired as needed to
maintain a barrier.
S. Construction entrance to be maintained In such a riarweer as to
prevent mud or, sediment from leaving the construction site.
Periodic topdressing with 2-inch stone may be required.
Inspect after each rainfall and immediately remove all
objectionable materials spilled, washed, or tracked onto
public roadways,
6. Inspect temporary sediment traps after each period of significant
rainfall. Remove sediment and restore the trap to its original
dimensions when the sediment has accumulated to 1/2 the design
depth of the trap. Place the sediment that Is removed in the
designated disposal area and replace the contaminated part of the
gravel facing. Check the structure for damage from erosion or
piping, Periodically check the depth of the spillway to ensure it
Is a minimum of 1.5 ft below the low point of the embankment.
Immediately filt any settlement of the embankment to slightly above

Construction Rond Stabilization
Specification # 6.80 - Construction Specifications
1. Clear roadbed and parking areas of all vegetation, roots and other
objectionable material,
2. Ensure that road construction follows the natural contours of the terrain if
it is possible.
3. Locate parking areas on naturally flat areas if they are available, Keep
grades sufficient for drainage but generally not more than 2 to 3%.
4. Provide surface drainage, and divert excess runoff to stable areas by using
venter bars or turnouts (References= Runoff Control Measures).
5. Keep cuts and fills at 2,1 or, flatter for safety and stability and to
facilitate establishment of vegetation and maintenance,
6. Spread a 6-Inch course of 'ABC' crushed stone evenly over the full width of
the road and smooth to avoid depressions,
7. Where seepage areas or seasonally wet areas must be crossed, Install
subsurface drains or geotextile fabric cloth before placing the crushed stone
(Practice 6. 81, Subsurface Drain) .
S. Vegetate all roadside ditches, cuts, fills and other disturbed areas or
otherwise appropriately stnb[t[ze as soon as grading Is complete (References,
Surface Stabilization),
9, Provide appropriate sediment control measures to prevent off -site
sedimentation,
Maintenance
Inspect construction roads and parking areas perlodically for condltlon of
surface. Topdress with new gravel as needed. Check road ditches and other
seeded areas for erosion and sedimentation after runoff -producing rains.
Malntaln all vegetation In a healthy, vigorous condition. Sediment -producing
areas should be treated immediately.

CTemr�orary Gravel Construction Entrance/Exit
Specification # 6.06 - Construction Specifications
1, Clear the entrance and exit area of all vegetation, roots and other
objectionable material and properly grade it.
2. Place the gravel to the specific grade and dimensions shown on the plans and
smooth it.
3. Provide drainage to carry water to a sediment trap or other suitable outlet.
4. Use geotextile Fabrics because they improve stability of the foundation in
locations subject to seepage or high water table,
Maintenance
Maintain the gravel pad In a condition to prevent mud or sediment from leaving
the construction site, This may require per;odic topdressing with 2-Inch stone.
After each rainfall, Inspect any structure used to trap sediment and clean It
out as necessary. Immediately remove all objectionable materials spilled,
washed, or tracked onto public roadways.
Tem o� rary Seedlno
Specification # 6,10 - Spec lflcat lons
Complete grading before preparing seedbeds and instate all necessary erosion
control practices, such as dikes, waterways and basins. Minimize steep slopes
because they make seedbed preparation difficult and increase the erosion hazard.
If soils become compacted during grading, loosen them to a depth of 6-8 inches
using a ripper, harrow, or chisel plow.
Seedbed Preparation
Goad seedbed preparation Is essential to successful plant establishment. A good
seedbed is well -pulverized, loose and uniform. Where hydroseeding methods are
used, the surface may be left with a more irregular surface of large clods and
stones.
Liming - Apply lime according to soli test recommendations, If the pH (acldlty)
of the soil Is not known, an application of ground agricultural limestone at the
rate of 1 to 1 1/2 tons/acre on coarse -textured soils and 2-3 tons/acres on
fine -textured soils Is usually sufficient, Apply limestone uniformly and
incorporate into the top 4-6 inches of SOIL. Solis with a pH of 6 or higher
need not be limed.
Fertilizer- Base application rates on soli tests. When these are not possible,
apply n 10-10-10 grade fertilizer at 700-1,000 tb,/acre. Both fertilizer and
time should be Incorporated Into the top 4-6 Inches of soil. If a hydraulic
seeder, Is used, do not mix seed and fertilizer more than 30 minutes before
application.
Surface roughening- If recent tillage operntlons have resulted in n loose
surface, additional roughening may not be required except to break up gorge
clods, if rainfall causes the surface to become seated or crusted, loosen it
Just prior to seeding by disking, raking, harrowing, or other suitable methods,
Groove or furrow slopes steeper than 311 on the contour before seeding (Practice
6103, Surface Roughening).
Plant Selection
Select an appropriate species or species mixture from Treble 6.10a, for seeding
In late winter and early spring, Table 6.10b for summer, and Table 6,10c for
fall,
Seeding
Evenly apply seed using a cyclone seeder (broadcast), drill, cultipacker seeder,
or hydroseeder. Use seeding rates given in Table 6.10a-6.10c, Broadcast seeding
and hyroseeding are appropriate for steep slopes where equipment cannot be
driven, Hand broadcasting Is not recommended because of the difficulty in
achieving n uniform distribution. Small grains should be planted no more than 1
Inch deep, and grasses and legumes no more than 1/2 Inch, Broadcast seed must
be covered by raking or chain dragging, and then lightly firmed with a roller or
cultipacker. Hydroseeded mixtures should include a wood fiber (cellulose) mulch.
Mulching
The use of appropriate mulch will help ensure establishment under normal
conditions and is essential to seeding success under harsh site condition
(Practice 6.14, Mulching), Harsh site conditions include,
-seeding In fall for winter cover Cwood fiber mulches are not considered
adequate for this use),
-slopes steeper than 311,
-excessively hot or dry weather,
-adverse soils<shallow, rocky, or high In clay or sand), and
-areas receiving concentrated flow.
If the area to be mulched Is subject to concentraterf(ow, as in Channels,
anchor mulch with netting (Practice 6.14, Mulching).

Speclflcatlons # 6.11 - Specifications
Seedbed Requirements
Establishment of vegetntlon should not be attempted on sites that are unsuitable
due to Inappropriate Solt texture (Table 6.11a), poor drainage, concentrated
overland flow, or steepness of slope until measures have been taken to correct
these problems.
To nalntnln n good stand of vegetntlon, the soli must meet certain minimum
requirements as a growth medlum. The existing soli should have these criteria,
Enough fine-grained (silt and clay) material to maintain adequate
moisture and nutrient supply <available water capacity of at least .05
inches venter to l inch of soil).
- Sufficient pore space to permit root penetration.
- Sufficient depth of soli to provide an adequate root zone. The depth to rock
or Impermeable layers such as hardpans should be 12 Inches or more, except on
slopes steeper than 2,1 where the addition of soli is not feasible.
- A favornb le pH range for p lent growth, usually 6. 0-6. 5.
- Freedom from large roots, branches, stones, large clods of earth, or trash of
any kind. Clods and stones may be left on slopes steeper than 311 If they are
to be hydroseeded
If any of the above criteria are not met-i.P., if the existing Solt is too
coarse, dense, shallow or acidic to foster vegetation -special amendments are
required. The soli conditioners described below may be beneficial or,
preferably, topsoll may be applied in accordance with Practice 6,04, Topsolling,
Soil Condltloners
In order to improve the structure or drainage characteristics of a Solt, the
Fpllowing material may be added. These amendments should only be necessary
where soils have linitntions that make them poor for plant growth or for fine
turf establishment (see Chapter 3, Vegetative Considerations).
Peat -Appropriate types are sphagnum moss peat, hypnum moss peat, reedsedge peat,
or peat humus, all from fresh -water sources. Peat should be shredded and
conditioned in storage piles for at least 6 months after excavation.
Sand -clean and free of toxic materials
Vermiculite -horticultural grade and free of toxic substances•
Rotted manure -stable or cattle manure not containing undue amounts of straw or
other bedding materials.
Thoroughly rotted sawdust- free of stones and debris. Add 6 lb, Of nitrogen to
each cubic yard.
Sludge -Treated sewage and industrial sludges are available In various formsi
these should be used only [n accordance with local, State and Federal
regulations.
Species Selection
Use the key to Permanent Seeding Mixtures (Table 6,Ilb) to select the most
appropriate seeding mixture based on the general site and maintenance factors.
A listing of species, including scientific names and characteristics, is given
in Appendix 8, 02.
Seedbed Preparation
Install necessary nechanlcal erosion and sedimentation control practices before
seeding, and complete grading according to the approved plan.
Lime and fertlllzer needs should be determined by soil tests Soll testing Is
performed free of charge by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture soil
testing laboratory. Directions, sample cartons, and information sheets are
available through county ngrlcultural extension offices or from NCDA. Because
the NCDA soil testing lab requires 1-6 weeks for sample twin -around, sampling
must be planned well In advance of final grading. Testing is also done by
commercial laboratories.
When soli test are not available, follow rates suggested on the Individual
speciflcatron sheet for the seeding mix chosen (Tables 6.11c through 6.110.
Applications rates usually fall into the following ranges,
- Ground agricultural limestone
Light -textured, sandy solid 1-1 1/2 tons/acre
Heavy textured, clayey soils 2-3 tons/acre
- Fertilizert
Grasses 800-1200 lb/acre of 10-10-10 Cor the equivalent)
Grass -legume mixtures, 800-1200 lb/acre of 5-10-10 (or the equivalent)
Apply lime and fertilizer evenly and Incorporate into the top 4-6 inches of salt
by disking or other suitable means. Operate machinery on the contour. When
using a hydroseeder, apply lime and fertilizer to a rough, loose surface.
Roughen surfaces nccording to Practice 6.03, Surface Roughening,
Complete seedbed preparation by breaking up large clods and raking Into a
smooth, uniform surface (slope less than 311) Fit in or level depressions than
can collect water. Broadcast seed into a freshly loosened seedbed that has not
been sealed by rainfall.

Grass -Lined Channels
Specification # 6.30 - Construction Specifications
1, Remove all trees, brush, stumps, and other objectionable material from the
foundntlon nren and dispose of properly,
2. Excavate the channel and Shope it to neat lines and dimensions shown on the
plans plus a 0.2 ft overcut around the channel perimeter to allow for bulking
during seedbed preparations and sod buildup,
3. Remove and properly dispose of all excess Solt so that surface water may
enter the channel freely.
4. The procedure used to establish grass in the channel will depend upon the
severity of the condltlons and selection of species. Protect the channel
with mulch or a temporary liner sufficient to withstand an#Iclpated
veEocltles during the establishment period (Appendix 8,05).
Maintenance
Dur[ng the establishment period, check grass -lined channels after every
rainfall. After grass Is established, perlodically check the channels check it
niter every heavy rainfall event. Immediately make repairs. It is particularly
important to check the channel outlet and all road crossings for bank stablllty
and evidence of piping or scour holes, Remove all significant sediment
nccumulntians to maintain the designed carrying capacity. Keep the grass In a
health, vigorous condition at nil times, since It is the primary erosion
protection for the channel (Practice 6.11, Permanent Seeding).

polyester, or polyethylene yarn, which Is certified by the manufacturer or
supplier as conforming to the requirements shown in Table 6.62b, Synthetic
filter fabric should contain ultraviolet ray Inhibitors and stabilizers to
provide a minimum of 6 months of expected usable construction life at a
temperature range of 0 to 120 F.
2. Ensure that posts for sediment fences are either 4-Inch diameter pine, 2-Inch
diameter oak, or 1.33 lb/linear ft steel with a minimum length of 4 Ft, Make
sure that steel posts have projections to facilitate fastening the Fabric.
3. For reinforcement of standard strength filter fabric, use wire fence with a
minimum 14 gauge and a maximum mesh spacing of 6 Inches,

Speclflcatlons For Sediment Fence Fabric
Physical Property Requirements
Filtering Efficiency - 857(mm)
Tensile Strength at Standard Strength- 30 lb/Iln In (min)
Extra Strength- 50 lb/tin in (mm)
Slurry Flow Rate - 0.3 gal/sq ft/min (min)
CONSTRUCTION
1. Construct the sediment barrier of standard strength or extra strength
synthetic filter fabrics.
2,Ensure that the height of the sediment fence does not exceed 18 Inches above
the ground surface. (Higher fences may impound volumes of water sufficient to
cause failure of the structure.)
3.Construct the filter fabric from a continuous roll cut to the length of the
barrier to avoid joints, When ,Joints are necessary, securely fasten the filter
cloth only at n support post with overlap to the next post.
4. Support standard strength filter fabric by wire mesh fastened securely to the
up slope side of the posts using heavy duty wire staples at least 1 inch long,
or tie wires. Extend the wire mesh support to the bottom of the trench.
5. When a wire mesh support fence is used, space posts a maximum of 8 ft apart.
Support posts should be driven securely Into the ground to a minimum of 1$
inches.
6. Extra strength filter fabric with 6ft post spacing does not require wire mesh
support fence. Staple or wire the filter fabric directly to posts.
7. Excavate a trench approximately 4 inches wide and 8 Inches deep along the
proposed line of posts and upslvpe from the barrier (figure 6.62a),
8,Backfill the trench with compacted Solt or gravel placed over the filter
f abr I c,
9. Do not attach fitter fabric to existing trees,
Maintenance
Inspect sediment fences at least once n week and after each rainfall, Make any
required repairs Immediately.
Should the fabric of n sediment fence collapse, tear, decompose or, become
Ineffective, replace It promptly, Replace burlap every 60 days.
Remove sediment deposits ns necessary to provide adequate storage volume for the
next rain and to reduce pressure on the fence. Take care to avoid undermining
the fence during clennout,
Remove all fencing materials and unstabEe sediment deposits and bring the area
to grade and stnbillze It after the contributing drainage area has been properly
stabilized.
Sedlrtent Basin w/ Rock Dart (see addlt,;_anal notes and sears)
Speclflcatlons # 6.63 - Construction Specifications
1.SIte preparations -Clear, grub and strip topsoil from areas under the
embankment to remove trees, vegetation, roots and other objectionable material,
Delay clearing the pool area until the dam Is complete and then remove brush,
trees and other objectionable materials to facllltate sediment clennout,
Stockpile all topsoll or Boll containing organic natter for use on the outer
shell of the embankment to facllltate vegetative establishment. Place temporary
sediment control measures below the basin as needed.
2,Cut-of f trench -Excavate a cut-off trench along the centerline of the earth
flit embankment. Cut the trench to stable soil material, but In no case make It
less than 2 ft. deep. The cut-off trench must extend Into both abutments to at
Eenst the elevation of the riser crest. Make the minimum bo#tom width wide
enough to permit operntlon of excavation and compaction equipment but in no case
Less than 2 Ft. Make side slopes of the trench no steeper than IL 1. Compaction
requirements are the same as those for the embankment, Keep the trench dry
during backfllling and compaction operations.
3. Embankment -Take flit material from the approved areas shown on the plans, 1t
should be dean mineral soil, free of roots, woody vegetation, rocks and other,
objectionable material. Scarify areas on which fill is be placed before placing
fill, The fill material must contain sufficient moisture so it can be formed by
hand Into a ball without crumbling. If water can be squeezed out of the ball, it
Is too wet for proper compaction, Place fell material In 6 to 8-Inch
continuous layers over the entire length of the fill area and then compact
Compaction may be obtained by routing the construction hauling equipment over
the fill so that the entire surface of each layer is traversed by at least one
wheel or tread track of the heavy equipment, or a compactor may be used.
Construct the embankment to an elevation 10% higher than the design height to
allow for settling.
4,Condult spillways -Securely attach the riser to the barrel or barrel stub to
make n watertight structural connection, Secure all connections between barrel
sections by approved watertight assemblies. Place the barrel and riser on a
firm, smooth foundation of Impervious soil. Do not use pervious material such
as sand, gravel, or crushed stone as backfill around the pipe or ant; -seep
collars. Place the fill material around the pipe splllwny in 4-inch layers and
compact It under and around the pipe to at least the same density as the
adjacent embankment. Care must be taken not to raise the pipe from firm contact
with its foundation when compacting under the pipe haunches.
Place n minimum depth of 2ft. of hand -compacted backFiLL over the pipe spillway
before crossing It with construction equipment. Anchor the riser in place by
concrete or other satisfactory means to prevent flotation. In no case should the
pipe conduit be Installed by cutting a trench through the dam after the
embankment Is complete.
5-Emergency spillway -Install the emergency spillway In undisturbed soil. The
achievement of planned elevations, grade, design width, and entrance and exit
channel slopes are criticat to the successful operntlon of emergency spillway,
6.Inlets-Discharge water into the basin In a manner to prevent erosion. Use
dlverslons with outlet protection to divert sedlnent-laden water to the upper
end of the pool area to Improve basin trap efficiency (References, Runoff
Control Measures and Outlet Protection).
7. Erosion control -Construct the structure so that the disturbed area is
minimized. Divert surface water away from bare areas Complete the embankment
before the nren Is cleared, Stabilize the emergency spillway embankment and all
other disturbed areas above the crest of the principal splllwny Immediately
after construction (References, Surface Stabilization).
8,Safety-Sediment basins may attract chEldren and can be dangerous. Avoid steep
side slopes, and fence and mark basins with warning signs if trespassing is
Likely. Follow all state and local requirements.
Maintenance
Check sedlnent basins after periods of slgnlflcant runoff. Remove sediment and
restore the basin to Its original dimensions when sediment accumulates tp one-
half the design depth,
Check the embankment, spillways, and outlet for erosion damage, and inspect the
embankment for piping and settlement. Make all necessary repairs Immediately.
Remove akl trash and other debris from the riser and pool area.

1. Clear, grub, and strip the area under the embankment of all vegetation and
root mat, Remove all surface soil containing high amounts of organic matter and
stockpile or dispose of it properly, Haul all objectionable material to the
designated disposal area.
2. Ensure that fill material for the embankment Is free of roots, woody
vegetation, organic matter, and other objectionable material, Place the fill In
lefts not to exceed 9 inches and machine compact it. Over flit the embankment 6
Inches to allow for settlement.
3. Construct the outlet section in the embankment, Protect the connection
between the riprap and the soli from piping by using filter fabric or a keyway
cutoff trench between the rlprnp structure and the soil,
(Place the fitter fabric between the riprap and soil. Extend the
fabric across the spillway foundntlon and sides to the top of the
dame or
(Excavate a keyway trench along the centerline of the spillway
foundation extending up the sides to the height of the dam. The
trench should be at least 2 ft deep and 2 ft wide with Ili side
Slopes.
4. Clear the pond area below the elevation of the crest of the spillway to
facllltate sediment cteanout
5. All cut and fill slopes should be 2i1 or flatter.
6. Ensure that the stone (drainage) section of the embankment has a minimum
bottom width of 3 ft and maximum side slopes of Ill that extend to the bottom of
the spillway section,
7. Construct the minimum finished stone spillway bottom width, as shown on the
plans, with 211 side slopes extending to the top of the over filled embankment
Keep the thickness of the sides of the spillway outlet structure at a minimum
of 21 Inches. The weir must be level and constructed to grade to assure design
capacity.
8. Materlal used In the stone section should be a well -graded mixture of stone
with a d50 size of 9 Inches (class B erosion control stone Is recommended) and n
maximum stone size of 14 inches. The stone may be machine placed and the smaller
stones worked into the voids of the larger stones. The stone should be hard,
angular, and highly weather -resistant,
9. Ensure that the stone spillway outlet section extends downstream past the
toe of the embankment until stable condltlons are reached and outlet velocity is
acceptable for the receiving stream. Keep the edges of the stone outlet section
flush with the surrounding ground and shape the center to confine the outflow
stream (References, Outlet Protection).
10, Direct emergency bypass to natural, stable areas. Locate bypass outlets so
that flow well not damage the embankment,
11. Stabilize the embankment and all disturbed areas above the sediment pool
and downstream from the trap immediately after construction (Referencesi Surface
Stabilization),
12. Show the distance from the top of the spillway to the sediment clennout
Level (one-half the design depth) on the plans and mark it in the field.
Malntennnce
Inspect temporary sediment traps after each period of significant rainfall.
Remove sediment and restore the trap to its original dimensions when the
sediment has accumulated to one-half the design depth of the trap. Place the
sediment that Is removed In the designated disposal nren and replace the
contaminated part of the gravel facing.
Check the structure for damage from erosion or piping. Periodically check the
depth of the spillway to ensure It Is a minimum of 1.5 ft below the low point of
the embankment. Immediately flit any settlement of the embankment to slightly
above design grade. Any riprap displaced from the spillway must be replaced
immediately.
After all sediment -producing areas have been permanently stabilized, remove the
structure and all unstable sediment. Smooth the area to blend with the adjoining
areas and stabilize properly (Referencesr Surface Stabilization),
