Practice Specification
Grassed Waterway (Code 412)
Scope
Work shall consist of shaping the waterway channel and placing excavated material as specified.
Location
The planned location of the waterway shall be as shown on furnished drawings or as staked in the field.
Public and Private Utilities
Utilities are defined to be overhead and underground power or communication lines, and pipelines. 1.
The contractor should conduct their own search and discovery for utilities in order to lessen or avoid potential damages. Other buried infrastructure, such as landowner-installed drainage tile, private water lines, or electrical lines, are the responsibility of the landowner to locate. The owner/operator shall complete TX-ENG-80A, Utilities Inventory, during planning and return it to the
NRCS representative.
The owner/operator shall also ensure that TX-ENG-80B, Cooperator Confirmation of the Utility 2.
Locator Service, is completed and returned to the NRCS representative prior to layout or any ground disturbance.
Cooperators, sponsoring organizations, and/or contractors shall be liable for damage to utilities and 3.
damage resulting from disruption of service caused by installation activities. The Natural
Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) makes no representation on the existence or non-existence of any utilities. Absence of utilities on drawings is not assurance that no utilities are present at the site.
Site Preparation
All trees, stumps, brush, and other objectionable material that will interfere with construction or proper functioning of the waterway shall be removed from the site and disposed of in a manner consistent with environmental concerns and proper functioning of the waterway.
Dimensions of Installation
Waterways shall be constructed to the grade and dimensions shown on the plans, specified on furnished drawings, or as staked in the field.
Material
Excavated material will be used to construct side banks, roads, or other fills as specified. Topsoil 1.
shall be stockpiled and re-spread where necessary to provide a seedbed for the grass. Seedbed preparation; time of seeding; seeding mixture and rate; stabilizing crop; mulching; or mechanical means of stabilization; and fertilizer and lime requirements shall be provided to the owner/operator for the waterway and other disturbed areas after construction is complete.
Any spoil shall be spread where it will not interfere with flow into the waterway. If necessary, excess 2.
water shall be diverted away until vegetation is established. Any protective measures shall then be removed, and the disturbed areas that are not to be farmed shall be seeded to permanent grass.
