2006 Erosion and Sediment Control Pocketbook
Guide
$10 Order
Form
The Minnesota Department of Transportation is committed to controlling
erosion and keeping sediment on its construction projects. Many
construction permits require the placement of adequate erosion
and sediment control devices. Being proactive, aware of site conditions,
and properly installing erosion and sediment control devices will
save time and money by reducing the amount of sediment removal,
re-grading, the potential for costly fines, and the need to reinstall
marginal devices.
This pocketbook is intended for inspectors and installers of erosion
and sediment control devices. The installation methods primarily
correspond to Mn/DOT’s draft 2005 Standard Specifications
for Construction and also Standard Plan sheets. The 2000 section
of the specifications contains information regarding installation,
maintenance and payment. The 3000 section of the specifications
contains information related to the required materials.
