If precipitation is predicted, the necessary water pollution control practices shall be developed prior to the onset of the precipitation.

F.4. A minimum of 100% of the material needed to install weather triggered BMPs necessary to completely protect the exposed portions of the site from erosion, and to prevent sediment discharges, must be stored on site. Areas that have already been protected from erosion using physical stabilization or established vegetation stabilization BMPs as determined by the Contracting Officer, are not considered to be “exposed” for purposes of this requirement.

F.5. Disturbed soil areas shall be considered active whenever the soil disturbing activities have occurred, continues to occur or will occur during the ensuing 21 days. Non-active areas shall be protected as prescribed in the Construction Site BMP Manual within 14 days of cessation of soil disturbing activities or prior to the onset of precipitation, whichever occurs first.

F.6. In order to provide effective erosion control the Contractor may be requested to apply permanent erosion control in small or multiple units as disturbed soil areas are deemed substantially complete by the Forest Service.

F.7. The Contractor shall implement, maintain, and inspect the following temporary sediment control practices on a year-round basis, as conditions warrant. The listed practices shall remain in place until their use is no longer needed, as determined by the Forest Service.

F.8. The active disturbed soil area of the project site shall be not more than 1 acre. The Contracting Officer may approve, on a case-by-case basis, expansions of the active disturbed soil area limit. Soil stabilization and sediment control materials shall be maintained on site sufficient to protect the unprotected disturbed soil area.
