Element 6:Protect Slopes The TESC General Notes, Site Grading Notes, and Seeding Notes included in the construction plan set are intended to address the following requirements for slope protection. • Cut and fill slopes shall be designed and constructed in a manner that will minimize erosion. • Consider soil type and its potential for erosion. • Reduce slope runoff velocities by reducing the continuous length of slope with terracing and diversions, reduce slope steepness, and roughen slope surface. • Divert upslope drainage and run-on waters from off-site with interceptors at top of slope. Off-site stormwater should be handled separately from stormwater generated on the site. Diversion of off-site stormwater around the site may be a viable option. Diverted flows shall be redirected to the natural drainage location at or before the property boundary. • Contain downslope collected flows in pipes, slope drains, or protected channels_ • Provide drainage to remove ground water intersecting the slope surface of exposed soil areas. • Excavated material shall be placed on the uphill side of trenches, consistent with safety and space considerations. • Check dams shall be placed at regular intervals within trenches that are cut down a slope. • Stabilize soils on slopes, as specified in Element#5. There are no steep slopes on this project. The site pad will be graded out to 1.0%.
