Element 11 : Maintain BMPs (2.1.11) <br /> All temporary and permanent Erosion and Sediment Control (ESC) BMPs shall be maintained <br /> and repaired as needed to ensure continued performance of their intended function. <br /> Maintenance and repair shall be conducted in accordance with each particular BMP <br /> specification (see Volume 11 of the SWMMWW or Chapter 7 of the SWMMEW). <br /> Visual monitoring of all BMPs installed at the site will be conducted at least once every calendar <br /> week and within 24 hours of any stormwater or non-stormwater discharge from the site. If the <br /> site becomes inactive and is temporarily stabilized, the inspection frequency may be reduced to <br /> once every calendar month. <br /> All temporary ESC BMPs shall be removed within 30 days after final site stabilization is <br /> achieved or after the temporary BMPs are no longer needed. <br /> Trapped sediment shall be stabilized on-site or removed. Disturbed soil resulting from removal <br /> of either BMPs or vegetation shall be permanently stabilized. <br /> BMP C150 Materials On Hand: The contractor shall keep materials for BMP repairs on hand <br /> under the direction of the Certified Erosion and Sediment Control Lead (CESCL). <br /> BMP C160 Certified Erosion and Sediment Control Lead: A CESCL shall monitor the site during <br /> construction. <br /> Additionally, protection must be provided for all BMPs installed for the permanent control of <br /> stormwater from sediment and compaction. BMPs that are to remain in place following <br /> completion of construction shall be examined and restored to full operating condition. If <br /> sediment enters these BMPs during construction, the sediment shall be removed and the facility <br /> shall be returned to conditions specified in the construction documents. <br />
