The Department is seeking public comment on "Maine Erosion and Sediment Control Best Management Practices (BMPs), Manual for Designers and Engineers."
The purpose of this handbook is to help land developers, consultants, and contractors use the appropriate erosion and sedimentation control Best Management Practices (BMPs) for the site and conditions whenever disturbing soil or removing a natural ground cover. Large-scale development areas exposed to erosion during construction have the greatest potential for significant sedimentation of a resource; but, a small discharge of turbid water from a simple residential lot development can also have damaging effects to the environment. This document identifies BMPs for both small and large scale erosion and sediment control techniques the regulated community should consider during construction.
Comments must be received no later than 5:00 pm, Friday, July 22, 2016. Please send comments in writing to:
