Erosion andSedimentation

ControlProcedures



Eros ion and Sedim ent at ion

Cont ro l Proc edures

Became effective January 10, 2006

Clarifies certain EPD activities in

regards to Erosion and Sedimentationto insure consistent implementation

statewide




Pr inc ip les

1. Erosion and Sedimentation control

programs must have a local focus. EPDwill never have sufficient staff to replace

local programs.

2. EPD must instill a strong will in local

governments to control erosion and

sedimentation




Pr inc ip les

3. EPD should support local programs,

especially through education andguidance

4. Local Issuing Authorities are the first line

of enforcement; EPD is the enforcement

backstop.

5. If EPD investigates a site and finds

violations, we must seek enforcement

actions which may include penalties.Griffin E&S Day 2010



Pr inc ip les

6. EPD must prioritize our work, since we

would quickly be overwhelmed if we did not

7. EPD must retain fairness and common sense

in implementing this program.8. EPD must be consistent.

9. A high priority is educating localgovernments, developers, and consultants.
