Description
This document provides guidelines for analysis, design, construction, and maintenance of erosion and sediment control structures for highway construction projects. This document was developed with the intent that it would provide a convenient and comprehensive resource and a rational basis for the design of erosion and sediment control structures. It is intended primarily for use by design consultants but also provides valuable information for contractors and field personnel. It is intended to assist and provide direction in the analysis and design of erosion and sediment control structures, but is not intended to preclude innovative or alternative designs.
