B. SWPPP Minimum Elements <br /> 1: Preserve Vegetation and Mark Clearing Limits <br /> The first step in the construction process is for the contractor to fence the limits of <br /> clearing/disturbance (BMP C103) prior to any other construction activity. The engineering <br /> plans locate and provide the square footages for the areas of grading, clearing, impervious <br /> surfaces and un-disturbed areas on the proposed site. Large amounts of natural <br /> vegetation will be preserved on this project (BMP C101). Approximately 45% of the entire <br /> site will be cleared or disturbed for this project. <br /> 2: Establish Construction Access <br /> The SWPPP calls for the proposed construction entrance (BMP C105) to be installed as <br /> the second step after the staking of clearing limits. Since this project will utilize the level <br /> area on the property to the south this feature will not require any excessive grading to <br /> install, will be available immediately and may require some maintenance to ensure proper <br /> function during the site work. At this time winter work is expected during the wet season. <br /> 3: Control Flow Rates <br /> This project is below the thresholds requiring flow control for the project. <br /> 4: Install Sediment Controls <br /> This site SWPPP proposes to construct/maintain a gravel entrance (BMP C105), <br /> vegetative buffer (BMP C102), silt fencing (BMP C233) and retention of the existing <br /> vegetation (BMP C101) that will provide a vegetated strip around the work area and any <br /> adjacent property line. The construction of these features should be completed before the <br /> clearing and grading of the site. Mulch (BMP C121) will also be used on the exposed soil <br /> as necessary to limit erosion. In addition, streets shall be cleaned as needed at the end of <br /> each work day or through out the day if dirt and debris is tracked onto the paved surfaced. <br /> 5: Stabilize Soils <br /> The "Construction Sequence" calls for the stabilization of soils that remain unworked for <br /> certain lengths of time based on the time of year. Bare/disturbed soils shall remain <br /> uncovered or un-stabilized for no more than 2 days from Oct. 1 —April 30 and no more <br /> than 7 days from May 1 — Sept. 30. Stabilization techniques may include but not limited <br /> to mulching (BMP C121), plastic sheeting (BMP C123) or hydroseeding (BMP C120), <br /> notes have been added to the plan regarding protection for the stock pile area if <br /> necessary. A stockpile area has been identified on the SWPPP and is setback a minimum <br /> of 25-feet from any down slope property line. In addition, during dry periods soil should be <br /> covered or wetted (BMP C140) to reduce the production of dust. <br /> 6: Protect Slopes <br /> All disturbed slopes on site during construction are required to be protected with mulch <br /> (BMP C121) or other means as specified in the construction sequence like surface <br /> roughening (BMP C130). No concentrated runoff or significant amounts of sheet flow will <br /> be directed to new cut or fill slopes during construction (BMP C206). <br /> 7: Protect Drain Inlets <br /> The existing CB to the east of this site within the 95th Ct SE R.O.W. shall be protected with <br /> a silt sock if necessary during construction. <br /> Fordham SFR 12-0906 <br /> Oct. 2012 Page 7 <br />
