operations shall be treated to eliminate the discharge of sediment and other pollutants. Water resulting from dewatering operations shall be directed to temporary sediment traps or dewatering devices. Temporary sediment traps and dewatering bags will be provided, installed, and maintained at downgradient locations to control sediment deposits to downstream surfaces. 5.1.13 Fiber Roll Prior to the initiation of and during construction activities, fiber rolls (12” minimum diameter) will be established downgradient of all disturbed areas to reduce sheet flow on slopes. These rolls may extend into non-impact areas to provide adequate protection of adjacent lands. Spacing will conform to NYSDEC specification for straw bale dike. Clearing and grubbing will be performed only as necessary for the installation of the fiber rolls. To facilitate effectiveness, daily inspections and inspections immediately after significant storm events will be performed by the Contractor(s) and maintenance will be performed as needed. 5.2 Permanent Erosion and Sediment Control Measures The permanent erosion and sediment control measures described in the following sections are included as part of the construction documents. 5.2.1 Establishment of Permanent Vegetation Disturbed areas that will be vegetated must be seeded in accordance with the contract documents. The type of seed, mulch, and maintenance measures as described in the contract documents shall also be followed. Permanent soil stabilization measures must be initiated by the end of the next business day and completed within fourteen (14) days from the date the soil disturbance activity has permanently ceased. Final site stabilization is achieved when all soil-disturbing activities at the site have been completed and a uniform, perennial vegetative cover with a density of 80 percent has been established or equivalent stabilization measures (such as the use of mulches or geotextiles) have been employed on all unpaved areas and areas not covered by permanent structures. 5.2.2 Rock Outlet Protection Rock outlet protection shall be installed at the locations as indicated and detailed on the accompanying plans. The installation of rock outlet protection will reduce the velocity and energy of water, such that the flow will not erode downstream surfaces. 5.3 Implementation Schedule for Erosion and Sediment Control Measures Proper implementation of the outlined erosion and sediment control measures is critical to minimizing soil erosion and controlling off-site sediment transport during construction, as well as controlling the quality and quantity of stormwater runoff from the developed site after construction. The following table outlines the implementation schedule for initial placement of these measures, and the duration for which they should remain in place.
