• <br /> <br />EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL <br />Erosion and sediment are problems associated with construction. Proper <br />planning and staging of construction activity can minimize these hazards. <br />Bare only those areas necessary for construction. Protect all remaining <br />vegetation from destruction. This is particularly important in mountain <br />areas where vegetation is hard to re-establish. Areas graded months in <br />advance of anticipated construction should be temporarily seeded and/or <br />mulched. Keep grades of cut and fill 'slopes 3:I or flatter, where ever <br />practical for stability and maintenance. Seed or sod roadbanks, stream- <br />banks, cut and fill slopes, etc. as soon as practical after bringing them <br />to final grade. If these temporary and permanent measures are not effective <br />in reducing erosion and sediment damages from the site, the use of temporary <br />diversions and sediment basins at the base of the development may need to <br />be considered. 'As soon as practical following construction, stabilize <br />all disturbed areas by seeding, sodding or paving. <br />• PLEASE NOTE: <br />The soils information provided in this report is based on our present . <br />knowledge of the soil and how it reacts to specific uses.
