Minimum Requirements Form Minimum Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Requirements During Construction of Single Family Dwellings and Duplexes, or Land Grading and Demolition Activities less than 1 Acre. All work must be done in accordance with the “Standards for Soil Erosion and Sediment Control in New Jersey”. 7th Edition, January 2014, Revised July 2017. Contact the District 48 hours in advance of the start of any land disturbance activities. Remove any sediment that may be spilled, dropped, or tracked off of the project site. All paved rights-of-way adjacent to the project site must be maintained in a clean, swept condition throughout construction. Install crushed stone pad(s) to help reduce off-site tracking of sediment. Control the washing or blowing of sediment off the project site. Install sediment barriers to help reduce off-site sedimentation. Measures to control dust and wind erosion must be utilized (i.e., wetting of the site). The property must be graded in a manner that will not cause erosion or sedimentation problems on the project site, or to adjacent properties. Areas subject to Soil Restoration Measures must comply with the Standard for Land Grading. Site must be properly mulched for non-growing seasons using straw mulch @ 90-115 lbs./1,000 sq. ft. (3 bales), properly anchored or tacked. When required, site must be seeded to establish a temporary vegetative cover. Perennial ryegrass @ 1 lb./1,000 sq. ft. may be utilized. Prepare areas to be permanently vegetated by topsoiling (a minimum of 5” is required), fertilizing @ 11 lbs./1,000 sq. ft. of 10-20-10, and applying lime @ 90 lbs./1,000 sq. ft. Seed the site to establish a permanent vegetative cover utilizing a Turf-type Tall fescue/Perennial ryegrass mix @ 6-8 lbs./1,000 sq. ft., or equivalent. Apply straw mulch @ 70-90 lbs./1,000 sq. ft. (2 bales), and properly anchor or tack. Sod, stone cover or mulched landscape beds may be substituted for seeding to establish a permanent cover. Driveway must be stabilized with a permanent material such as asphalt, concrete, paving blocks, crushed stone, crushed concrete or dense graded aggregate. All sidewalks, driveway aprons, and curbing if required by the municipality must be completed. A Report of Compliance must be obtained from the District upon completion. Requests for a District inspection for the release of a Report of Compliance must be made 5 working days in advance. A Report of Complete Compliance is issued when permanent erosion controls have been addressed. A Report of Conditional Compliance may be issued when the season or other conditions may not be suitable for establishing a permanent vegetative cover. A Certificate of Occupancy will not be issued by a municipality unless the District has issued a Report of Compliance. This applies to both the Complete (final) and Conditional (temporary) certificates. The “Soil Compaction Mitigation Verification Form” must be submitted to the District prior to the issuance of a Report of Compliance when your soil erosion and sediment control plan denotes areas of the site that are subject to soil compaction mitigation (testing and/or remediation). The property owner shall be responsible for any erosion or sedimentation that may occur below stormwater outfalls or offsite because of construction of the project. The soil erosion inspector may require additional soil erosion measures to be installed, in accordance with the Standards for Soil Erosion and Sediment Control in New Jersey. All soil stockpiles are not to be located within fifty (50) feet (where applicable) of a floodplain, slope, roadway or drainage facility and the base must be protected with a sediment barrier. The following “Sequence of Construction” must be followed: Installation of temporary soil erosion and sediment control measures. Construction of dwelling (where applicable). Installation of drainage measures (where applicable). Implementation of soil restoration measures (where applicable). Installation of a permanent cover. Removal of soil erosion and sediment control measures. Receive certificate of compliance from Cape Atlantic Conservation District.
