' <br />CITY OF EVERETT STORMWATER MANAGEMENT MANUAL <br />2. Upgrade the road surface strength by improving particle size, shape, and mineral types that make <br />up the surface and base materials. <br />3. Add surface gravel to reduce the source of dust emission. Limit the amount of fine particles <br />(those smaller than .075 mm) to 10 to 20 percent. <br />4. Use geotextile fabrics to increase the strength of new roads or roads undergoing reconstruction. <br />if <br />5. Encourage the use of alternate, paved routes, available. <br />6. Restrict use by tracked vehicles and heavy trucks to prevent damage to road surface and base. <br />7. Apply chemical dust suppressants using the admix method, blending the product with the top few <br />inches of surface material. Suppressants may also be applied as surface treatments. <br />8. Pave unpaved permanent roads and other trafficked areas. <br />9. Use vacuum street sweepers. <br />10. Remove mud and other dirt promptly so it does not dry and then turn into dust. <br />' <br />11. Limit dust -causing work on windy days. <br />Contact the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency (PSAPCA) for guidance and training on other <br />dust control measures. Compliance with PSACP constitutes compliance with this BMP. <br />Maintenance Standards <br />' <br />Re -spray area as necessary to keep dust to a minimum. <br />3.2.17 BMP C150: Materials on Hand <br />' <br />Purpose <br />Quantities of erosion prevention and sediment control materials shall be kept on the project site at all <br />times to be used for emergency situations such as unexpected heavy summer rains. Having these <br />materials on site reduces the time needed to implement BMPs when inspections indicate that existing <br />BMPs are not meeting the C-SWPPP requirements. <br />Conditions of Use <br />1. Materials shall be stockpiled and readily available before any site clearing, grubbing, or <br />earthwork begins. <br />2. If storage space at the project site is at a premium, the contractor shall maintain the materials at <br />their office or yard. The office or yard must be less than an hour from the project site. <br />Design and Installation Specifications <br />Depending on the project type, size, complexity, and length, materials and quantities will vary. A good <br />minimum that will cover numerous situations includes the materials in the table at the end of this section. <br />Maintenance Standards <br />1. All materials with the exception of the quarry spalls, steel T-posts, and gravel should be kept <br />covered and out of both sun and rain. <br />2. Materials shall be restocked as needed. <br />Volume I! — Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention <br />3-29 <br />
