Typical recommendations for BMP removal for common construction stormwater BMPs.
Link to this table
BMP category/type | Standard procedure | Applicability and special considerations |
---|---|---|
Erosion prevention practices (stabilization practices) | ||
Temporary/permanent seeding | Left in place | Mulch or other natural temporary cover to protect seeded areas should also be left in place. |
Mulches | Left in place | Mulch, hydraulic mulch, and any anchoring materials must be degradable. |
Tackifiers/soil stabilizers | Left in place | If using tackifiers and stabilizers (e.g., polyacrylamide or PAM), ensure they are nontoxic to aquatic life (i.e., not cationic). |
Erosion control blankets (ECBs) | Left in place | Installed ECBs with emergent vegetation are left in place. May be removed and reused when used as temporary cover without seed on short-duration projects. |
Turf reinforcement mats (TRMs) | Left in place | Left in place to provide permanent armoring and vegetation support. |
Erosion prevention practices (other) | ||
Riprap | Left in place | Typically serves a permanent function for armoring, stabilizing, and protecting soil against erosion. |
Sediment control practices | ||
Vehicle tracking BMPs | Removed | Removed after final site stabilization or after no longer needed (e.g., vehicles no longer entering or existing site). |
Perimeter controls | Varies; most are removed | May be left in place if constructed from degradable materials (e.g., fiber rolls/logs). Silt fencing must be removed after upslope areas are stabilized. |
Check dams | Varies | May be left in place if constructed from degradable materials (e.g., fiber rolls/logs). Check post-construction stormwater management plan for applicability. |
Diversion barrier controls | Varies; most are removed | In general, all are removed after stabilization. In special cases, such as where removal may damage structures or foundation soils, cofferdams may be left in place. |
Inlet protection | Removed | Must be removed after stabilization. |
Outlet energy dissipation | Varies | Devices designed for temporary, short-term (e.g., less than one year) use must be removed after stabilization. Whether they are left in place as permanent BMPs depends on function and desired aesthetics. Check post-construction stormwater management plan for applicability. |
Sediment traps/basins | Varies | Temporary sediment traps are removed after stabilization. Temporary sediment basins may be converted to permanent stormwater management basins after stabilization. |
Stabilized earth/soil berm | Varies | Typically removed after stabilization. In some cases, may be left in place if permanently stabilized with vegetation. Check post-construction stormwater management plan for applicability. |
Surface water protection practices | ||
Buffer zones | Left in place | Always preserved on site |
Construction stormwater treatment practices | ||
Dewatering (including chemical treatment and sediment filtration) | Removed | Dewatering practices are operated during construction activity and may be removed after construction ceases and site is stabilized. |
Practices to minimize sediment discharge | ||
Diversion and working in the dry | Removed | Removed after construction is complete and stream channel and site are stabilized. |
Temporary stream crossing | Removed | Removed after construction is complete and stream channel and site are stabilized. |
Stabilized construction exit | Removed | Removed after construction is complete and construction equipment/materials have been removed. Grade and stabilize area after removal. |
