EROSION CONTROL REQUIREMENTS
Erosion control precautions, prior to excavation or disturbance of soil, must be taken on any property that has the potential to deposit sediment laden runoff on any street, existing drainage facilities or neighboring properties. Use of filter fabric fence (silt fence) must be installed, along with a combination of filter socks, straw bales, or other approved methods, if necessary, to contain sediment laden runoff from the site. All erosion control methods and components must be maintained at all times during construction until the disturbed soil has been secured in other ways (appropriate vegetation or structural control) to prevent erosion and the potential of sediment laden runoff.
Erosions control approval must be acquired prior to footing inspection approval.
Please contact the Milan Public Works Department at 731-686-1611 for erosion control approval prior to disturbance of soil.
