Title: DEVELOPING EROSION CONTROL PLANS FOR HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION
Accession Number: 00677737
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: A recommended procedure for developing erosion control plans for highway construction is presented. These procedures can be found in "Best Management Practices for Erosion and Sediment Control", an FHWA manual developed through the Federal Lands Highways Coordinated Technology Implementation Program. These recommendations result in part from recent legislative requirements under the Environmental Protection Agency's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System regulations. Erosion control plans are developed by following the basic principles of erosion and sediment control. In addition, a three-phase approach based on construction stages is presented to guide the designer through the process. Finally, a brief overview of best management practices is presented.
