Erosion and Sediment Control Manual

NCDOT is committed to reducing the stormwater impacts of transportation-related development on both linear and non-linear construction projects. The North Carolina Sedimentation Pollution Control Act (SPCA) essentially prohibits visible off-site sediment from any land-disturbing activity. The potential for widespread impacts due to improperly managed construction activities has led NCDOT to adopt the highest level of Erosion and Sediment Control (E&SC) guidelines and standards. The ES&C manual provides guidance for NCDOT designers and contractors on how to evaluate, plan and conduct the State’s transportation-related construction needs while controlling soil erosion and sediment to the standards of the SPCA. This manual presents E&SC information for NCDOT construction activities beginning with regulatory drivers and planning requirements and finally ending with design and construction guidelines for E&SC Best Management Practices (BMPs). The manual chapters are available for download below.
