LENGTH: 50-FEET MINIMUM
LOCATION - LOCATE CONSTRUCTION ENTRANCES AND EXITS TO LIMIT
SEDIMENT FROM LEAVING THE SITE AND TO PROVIDE FOR MAXIMUM
UTILITY BY ALL CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES. AVOID STEEP GRADES,
AND ENTRANCES AT CURVES IN PUBLIC ROADS.
WASHING - IF CONDITIONS AT THE SITE ARE SUCH THAT MOST OF THE
MUD AND SEDIMENT ARE NOT REMOVED BY VEHICLES TRAVELING
OVER THE GRAVEL, THE TIRES SHOULD BE WASHED. WASHING
SHOULD BE DONE ON AN AREA STABILIZED WITH CRUSHED STONE
THAT DRAINS INTO A SEDIMENT TRAP OR OTHER SUITABLE DISPOSAL
AREA. A WASH RACK MAY ALSO BE USED TO MAKE WASHING MORE
CONVENIENT AND EFFECTIVE.
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 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.
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. AFTER EACH
RAINFALL, INSPECT ANY STRUCUTRE USED TO TRAP SEDIMENT AND
CLEAN IT OUT AS NECESSARY. IMMEDIATELY REMOVE ALL
OBJECTIONABLE MATERIALS SPILLED, WASHED, OR TRACKED ONTO
PUBLIC ROADWAYS.

Inspect baffles at least once a week and after each rainfall. Make any
required repairs immediately.
Be sure to maintain access to the baffles. Should the fabric of a baffle
collapse, tear, decompose, or become ineffective, replace it promptly.
Remove sediment deposits when it reaches half full, to provide adequate
storage volume for the next rain and to reduce pressure on the baffles.
Take care to ovoid damaging the baffles during cleanout, and replace if
damaged during cleanout operations. Sediment depth should never exceed
half the designed storage depth.

SKIMMER SEDIMENT
BASIN
1. Clear,grub, and strip the area under the embankment of all vegetation and root mat.
Remove all surface soil containinghigh amounts of organic matter and stockpile or dispose of it
9 9 P P
properly. Haul all objectionable material to the designated disposal area. Place temporary
sediment control measures below basin as needed.
2. Ensure that fill material for the embankment is free of roots, woody vegetation, organic
matter, and other objectionable material. Place the fill in lifts not to exceed 9 inches, and
machine compact it. Over fill the embankment 6 inches to allow for settlement.
3. Shape the basin to the specified dimensions. Prevent the skimming device from settling
into the mud by excavating a shallow pit under the skimmer or providing a low support under
the skimmer of stone or timber.
4. Place the barrel (typically 4-inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe) 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. 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 not to raise the pipe from the firm contact with its foundation when compacting
under the pipe haunches.
Place a minimum depth of 2 feet of compacted backfill over the pipe spillway before
crossing it with construction equipment. In no case should the pipe conduit be installed by
cutting a trench through the dam after the embankment is complete.
5. Assemble the skimmer following the manufactures instructions, or as designed.
6 Lay tho assembled skimmr on the bottom of the basin with the flexible joint at the inle
t
of the barrel pipe. Attach the flexible joint to the barrel pipe and position the skimmer over the
PP 1 PP
excavated pit or support. Be sure to attach a rope to the skimmer and anchor it to the side of
the basin. This will be used to pull the skimmer to the side for maintenance.
7. Earthen spillways -Install the spillway in undisturbed soil to the greatest extent possible.
The achievement of planned elevations, grade, design width, and entrance and exit channel
slopes are critical to the successful operation of the spillway. The spillway should be lined with
laminated plastic or impermeable geotextile fabric. The fabric must be wide and long enough to
cover the bottom and sides and extend onto the top of the dam for anchoring in a trench. The
edges may be secured with 8-inch staples or pins. The fabric must be long enough to extend
down the slope and exit onto the stable ground. The width of the fabric must be one piece, not
joined or spliced; otherwise water can get under the fabric. If the length of the fabric is
insufficient for the entire length of the spillway, multiple sections, spanning the complete width,
may be used. The upper section(s) should overlap the lower section(s) so that water cannot
flow under the fabric. Secure the upper edge and side of the fabric in a trench with staples or
pins. (Adapted from "A Manual for Designing, Installing and Maintaining Skimmer Sediment
Basins." February, 1999. J.W. Faircloth & Son).
8. Inlets - Discharge water into the basin in a manner to prevent erosion. Use temporary
slope drains or diversions with outlet protection to divert sediment -laden water to the upper end
of the pool area to improve basin trap efficiency. (References: Runoff Control Measures and
Outlet Protection).
