Rip-rap ditch treatments <br />consisted of No. 1 coarse aggregate applied to a thickness of <br />31 cm and to a length of 3 m from the ditch outlet. Sediment <br />fences, 3 m in length, were placed perpendiculaz to turn-out <br />ditch outlets for all sediment fence treatments. <br />Sediment transport from the road prism was measured <br />using two runoff samplers at each tum~ut ditch stmcttue <br />located at the inlet and outlet of the mitigation treatments. <br />Composite runoff samples were collected for each runoff <br />event, and suspended sediment was determined by gmvimet- <br />ric filtration. Filtering accomplished by each associated <br />treatment was determined by comparing inflow and outflow <br />runoff concentrations. <br />Sediment delivery downslope onto the forest floor was <br />also investigated by measuring the quantity of sediment <br />exported [o the forest floor downslope of the mitigation <br />treatments. A diversion dam was located below each <br />mitigation treatment to direct runoff into 1-micron filter bags <br />(fig. 2). Filter bags were periodically collected, dried, and <br />weighed. The collected sediment indicated the quantity of <br />sediment that would have been exported into filter strips <br />below each turn-0ut treatment. Erosion stakes were installed <br />above the diversion dams. Forest floor elevation changes <br />were determined from erosion stakes and were used to <br />estimate the weight of sediment deposited on the forest floor <br />upslope of the filter bags. Total exported sediment was <br />determined as a combination of sediment collected in filter <br />voi. as(a): xxx-xzx <br />
