EROSION CONTROL ELEMENT # 10 - Control De -Watering. <br />Requirements Control De -Watering <br />1. Foundation, vault, and trench de -watering water, which have similar characteristics to <br />stormwater runoff at the site, shall be discharged into a controlled conveyance system <br />prior to discharge to a sediment trap or sediment pond. Channels must be stabilized, as <br />specified in Element #8. <br />2. Clean, non -turbid de -watering water, such as well -point ground water, can be discharged <br />to systems tributary to waters, as specified in Element #8, provided the de -watering flow <br />does not cause erosion or flooding. These clean waters should not be routed through <br />stormwater sediment ponds. <br />3. Highly turbid or contaminated dewatering water from construction equipment operation, <br />clamshell digging, concrete tremie pour, or work inside a cofferdam, shall be treated <br />separately from stormwater. <br />Other disposal options, depending on site constraints, may include: <br />1. Infiltration <br />2. Transport offsite in a vehicle, such as a vacuum flush truck, for legal disposal in a <br />manner that does not pollute surface waters, <br />3. Ecology -approved on -site chemical treatment or other suitable treatment technologies, <br />4. Sanitary sewer discharge with City and King County Wastewater Treatment Division <br />approval. <br />5. Use of a sedimentation bag with outfall to a ditch or swale for small volumes of localized <br />dewatering. <br />The following Best Management Practices, (BMPs), the ones that the Contractor will implement on <br />site, to meet the erosion control requirements listed above: <br />❑ Level Spreader —BMP C206 <br />❑ Other <br />✓ Not Applicable— See explanation below <br />There will be no dewatering on this project. <br />There will be no discharge to storm drains. <br />
