the berm. Notation on the berm states " 2.5' High Silt Fence To Be Placed At Low Point <br />Along Collection Berm". Implication of the notation was that, it there were multiple low <br />points along the berm, additional silt fences would be placed within each SAE as <br />warranted. <br />Upon completion of the site grading and topsoiling, one silt fence was installed in SAE <br />#2 neaz the junction of the lower berm and the Channel "H" westside berm, and four silt <br />fence segments were installed in SAE #1, with the western-most installation near the <br />junction of the lower berm and Channel "H" eastside berm, and three additional <br />installations spaced at low points along the lower berm further east. Each of the 5 silt <br />fence installations had failed and had not been repaired prior to the inspection. <br />STEPS NECESSARY TO ABATE VIOLATION (REMEDIAL ACTION): <br />1) Replace or repair the five failed silt fence structures and install additional silt <br />fence segments as necessary to minimize flow concentration to individual silt <br />fence structures and ensure proper functioning. Install at least two additional silt <br />fence segments along each of the channel berms on the east and west sides of <br />Channel "H", with corresponding berm breaks and water bars as necessary to <br />direct flow through the silt fenced berm breaks. Comalete Remedial Action <br />Item 1 by 8/30/07. <br />2) Construct berm break and water bar as necessary to direct flow of ephemeral <br />channel into Channel "H", at location near upper end of lower riprapped segment <br />of Channel "H", where a small tributary channel enters the disturbed area from <br />the west. The channel was diverted to flow along the berm rather than into <br />Channel "H", which may have contributed to the failure of the SAE-#2 silt fence. <br />Comalete Remedial Action Item 2 by 8/30/07. <br />3) Submit a properly amended Appendix page M(viii)-liv, showing additional silt <br />fence and berm break locations, within the technical revision application <br />associated with permit renewal.
