Work underway on the project includes grading and pipe work.
All areas that have been graded and no construction has taken place in the last 14 days should be seeded and
mulched. Seeding needs to keep pace with the construction.
The area around the stream culvert that has been installed should be seeded and matted.
The new stream channel that has been excavated should be stabilized to prevent sediment from flowing down
the channel into the stream. It is recommended that the
All erosion control devices should be checked for proper operation.
Continue to maintain erosion control devices and continue with seeding, matting and mulching as required to
protect State surface waters.
