E&S Control Services

The District’s erosion and sediment control staff are available to meet with engineers, contractors, developers, municipal officials, farmers, and private landowners to discuss ways to minimize the erosion of streambanks, control erosion on proposed land developments, and implement conservation practices.


Our Erosion & Sediment Control services include:
  • Pre-application meetings for NPDES permits (plan completeness)
  • Plan design meetings
  • Permits for projects in and around streams, including bank stabilization, road and utility crossings, and fish habitat structures
  • NPDES permits for projects that will disturb one acre or more of ground
  • Scheduling of mandatory pre-construction meetings on earthmoving sites to help ensure compliance with permits, and regulations such as the Clean Streams Law
  • Field inspection of earthmoving projects
  • Chapter 105 General Permits for stream encroachments
  • Investigation of and response to complaints regarding sediment pollution, stream crossings, and so on
  • Inspection of stormwater management devices to meet the NPDES permit requirements
  • Suggestions on how to control runoff from and on your site
