Crushed rock,gravel base,etc.,shall be added as required to maintain a stable driving surface and <br /> to stabilize any areas that have eroded. <br /> Following construction,these areas shall be restored to pre-construction condition or better to pre- <br /> vent future erosion. <br /> Perform street cleaning at the end of each day or more often if necessary. <br /> BMP C120: Temporary and Permanent Seeding <br /> Purpose <br /> Seeding reduces erosion by stabilizing exposed soils.A well-established vegetative cover is one of <br /> the most effective methods of reducing erosion. <br /> Conditions of Use <br /> Use seeding throughout the project on disturbed areas that have reached final grade or that will <br /> remain unworked for more than 30 days. <br /> The optimum seeding windows for western Washington are April 1 through June 30 and September <br /> 1 through October 1. <br /> Between July 1 and August 30 seeding requires irrigation until 75 percent grass cover is established. <br /> Between October 1 and March 30 seeding requires a cover of mulch or an erosion control blanket <br /> until 75 percent grass cover is established. <br /> Review all disturbed areas in late August to early September and complete all seeding by the end of <br /> September.Otherwise,vegetation will not establish itself enough to provide more than average pro- <br /> tection. <br /> Mulch is required at all times for seeding because it protects seeds from heat, moisture loss,and <br /> transport due to runoff. Mulch can be applied on top of the seed or simultaneously by hydroseeding. <br /> See BMP C121: Mulching for specifications. <br /> Seed and mulch all disturbed areas not otherwise vegetated at final site stabilization. Final sta- <br /> bilization means the completion of all soil disturbing activities at the site and the establishment of a <br /> permanent vegetative cover,or equivalent permanent stabilization measures(such as pavement, <br /> riprap,gabions, or geotextiles)which will prevent erosion. See BMP T5.13: Post-Construction Soil <br /> Quality and Depth. <br /> Design and Installation Specifications <br /> General <br /> • Install channels intended for vegetation before starting major earthwork and hydroseed with a <br /> Bonded Fiber Matrix. For vegetated channels that will have high flows, install erosion control <br /> blankets over the top of hydroseed. Before allowing water to flow in vegetated channels, <br /> establish 75 percent vegetation cover. If vegetated channels cannot be established by seed <br /> 2019 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington <br /> Volume ll-Chapter 3-Page 284 <br />
