11. Corrective actions needed(continued)
❑ Submit an adequate sedimentation and erosion control plan for approval,covering all areas disturbed or to be disturbed.
❑ Install all sedimentation and erosion control measures as shown on the approved plan.
❑ Submit a revised sedimentation and erosion control plan for approval for the following areas:
❑ Provide adequate permanent ground cover on all areas where development has been completed according to the time limits in the
approved plan,including the following areas:
❑ Install erosion and sediment control devices sufficient to retain sediment on the tract at the following areas:
❑ Install temporary sediment traps or basins and associated diversions as shown on the approved plan,including the following locations:
❑ Install adequate drop inlet protection as shown on the approved plan,including the following locations:
❑ Provide an adequate stream buffer zone of sufficient width to confine visible sedimentation within the 25%of the buffer nearer the land
disturbance using natural or artificial means(minimum 25-foot width in Trout Waters)including the following areas:
❑ Reduce the angle of graded slopes to an angle on which vegetative ground cover may be established including the following locations:
❑ For disturbed areas less than one acre,provide adequate temporary or permanent ground cover on all graded slopes where rough or fine
grading has been completed for 21 calendar days,including the following locations:
❑ Maintain all sedimentation and erosion control measures as specified in the approved plan and as required to prevent sedimentation
damage including the following locations
❑ Inspect site and document self-inspections during or after each phase of the plan.
❑ Obtain NCG010000 Certificate of Coverage as required.
❑ Properly handle concrete to avoid contact with surface waters,wetlands or buffers and prevent discharge from site.
❑ Relocate soil stockpiles at least 50 feet away from storm drain inlets or surface waters.
