Erosion control isn't just about preventing soil loss. It's about safeguarding our water resources and enhancing our quality of life. Soil erosion removes vital soil, increases pollutants in our waterways and diminishes water quality. 🌱 That's why #WakeCounty prioritizes a thorough erosion control process. Check it out ⤵️ ✅ Plan Development: Develop, submit and obtain approval for your erosion control plan. ✅ Regulatory Compliance: Complete an electronic Notice of Intent with NCDEQ, obtain NCG01 and schedule pre-construction meetings. ✅ Construction Phases: Install and maintain erosion control measures, self-inspect regularly and request inspections as needed. ✅ Project Completion: Secure a Certificate of Completion and finalize with an electronic Notice of Termination. See our field success tips ⤵️ ✅ Prior to Planning: Assess site conditions and environmental impacts early. ✅ Pre-Construction: Obtain necessary certifications and understand the process thoroughly. ✅ During Construction: Manage runoff effectively and maintain site cleanliness. ✅ Staying Storm Ready: Prepare for weather challenges and adjust measures as needed. ✅ Project Closeout: Coordinate with inspectors and complete necessary documentation. Let's work together to protect our environment and ensure sustainable development in #Wake County! Learn more ➡️ wake.gov/watershed

Do you know why Erosion control is important? I was going through an article and found some great key takeaways from it: 🌿 Why Erosion Control is Crucial in Construction Projects 🏗️ In the world of construction, there's more than meets the eye. Behind every successful project lies a crucial element often overlooked: erosion control. 🌊 Erosion isn't just a nuisance; it's a silent threat that can undermine the integrity of construction sites, disrupt ecosystems, and even lead to costly delays. That's why, at Evergreen Constructions, we understand the importance of implementing effective erosion control measures from the get-go. 💡 Here's why erosion control matters: 🌱 Preserving the Environment: Construction activities can disturb soil and vegetation, leading to erosion and sediment runoff. By implementing erosion control measures, we protect local ecosystems, prevent soil degradation, and minimize our environmental footprint. ⏳ Preventing Delays and Costs: Erosion and sediment runoff can result in regulatory violations, project delays, and costly fines. By proactively addressing erosion control, we ensure compliance with environmental regulations, minimize project disruptions, and save valuable time and resources. 🚧 Ensuring Safety and Stability: Erosion can compromise the stability of construction sites, posing safety risks for workers and neighboring properties. Through strategic erosion control solutions, we create safer work environments, reduce the risk of accidents, and uphold the integrity of our projects. 🌟 Our Commitment to Excellence: At Evergreen Constructions, we take pride in offering comprehensive erosion control services tailored to the unique needs of each project. From erosion blankets and sediment barriers to bioengineering and vegetative stabilization, we leverage innovative techniques and sustainable practices to deliver lasting results. 💬 Let's Connect: If you're seeking a construction partner that prioritizes environmental stewardship, regulatory compliance, and project success, look no further than Evergreen Constructions. Together, we can build a brighter future, one project at a time.

Preventing erosion on construction sites is crucial for environmental protection, regulatory compliance, sedimentation prevention, infrastructure stability, and cost efficiency. By implementing proper erosion control measures, stormwater and construction professionals can mitigate the negative impacts of erosion, foster sustainable development, and uphold their responsibility as environmental stewards. This article provides guidance to that end. It highlights the importance of turbidity monitoring as an essential element of erosion and sediment control management and emphasizes the significance of measuring and assessing turbidity levels in construction site runoff, as excessive turbidity can indicate high sediment concentrations that may negatively impact water quality and ecosystems. By incorporating turbidity monitoring into erosion control practices, professionals can promptly identify and address potential sedimentation issues, ensuring effective control measures are in place. Additionally, the article sheds light on the essential components of an Erosion and Sediment Control plan. It outlines the key elements that should be included in such a plan, including erosion control measures, sediment control practices, and site-specific considerations. By developing comprehensive and well-defined Erosion and Sediment Control plans, construction professionals can establish a structured approach to managing erosion and sedimentation risks throughout the project lifecycle. By equipping yourself with the knowledge and best practices shared in the article, you can enhance your ability to effectively manage erosion and sedimentation, and promote environmentally responsible construction practices! https://buff.ly/497siiH #NPDES #NPDESTraining #NPDESTrainingInstitute #TrainingThatMatters #Stormwater #StormwaterManagement #StormwaterProfessionals #StormwaterTraining #MS4Training #MS4sMatter #WaterQuality

Over the last several months, we have been working with developers in several communities in the greater Charlotte area to install level spreaders. The need for the install is identified as part of the transition process from developer to homeowner control of the communities. Repairs for erosion control are often identified items in the turnover. Level spreaders serve as an erosion control device to reduce water pollution by reducing the impact of high-velocity stormwater surface runoff. It is used both on construction sites and for permanent applications such as drainage for common areas. An engineer reviews the area to determine the proper design size for uniform spreading of the runoff water. Level spreaders should be constructed at a 0% grade with the length based on peak rate of flow from the contributing erosion control or stormwater management practice.

Managing stormwater runoff is crucial in construction, and understanding erosion prevention and sediment control is key to that end. Erosion prevention focuses on things like preserving native vegetation and soil to resist water flow, simplifying soil stabilization and preserving landscapes, while sediment control targets fine particles that pollute water systems, utilizing measures like sediment basins and silt fences. The article below examines various erosion and sediment control best practices and outlines BMPs for effective implementation, from phase construction processes to sediment basin construction. Don't let erosion and sedimentation disrupt your project or harm the environment. Incorporate these practices into your SWPPP today! https://buff.ly/3KFueFj #ErosionPrevention #NPDES #NPDESTraining #NPDESTrainingInstitute #TrainingThatMatters #Stormwater #StormwaterManagement #StormwaterProfessionals #StormwaterTraining #MS4Training #MS4sMatter #WaterQuality
