EC22-CPSWQ Exam Review Course Part 5 of 6: Erosion and Sediment Control Measures
Erosion and sediment control measures are necessary for any land-disturbing activity. Erosion control measures keep soil in place and help minimize the amount of sediment-laden runoff. Examples of erosion control measures include runoff controls (e.g., swales and berms) and soil stabilization measures (e.g., temporary and permanent vegetation and rolled erosion control products). Sediment control measures provide containment of sediment-laden runoff prior to discharge from construction sites. Examples include perimeter sediment control features (e.g., silt fence), treatments for interior drop inlets and catch basins, and measures for de-watering or containment of sediment. This module discusses basic design considerations for erosion and sediment control measures and includes an exercise involving the development of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan for a proposed small commercial construction site. This course earns 1.0 Professional Development Unit or .10 Continuing Education Credit
