Module 7: Erosion and Sedimentation Controls
7.1
Erosion and Sediment Control Plan
a. Describe the measures (channels, berms, ponds, etc.) that will be used to control erosion and
sedimentation at each surface site. (Show all facilities on the Operations Map, Module 14)
b. Describe the path of runoff leaving the site. (Indicate whether it will flow to a stream, active pit or
abandoned pit, and the distance between the site and the discharge point.
c. Describe the schedule for constructing new facilities or improving existing facilities.
7.2
Channels and Diversions
Complete this section only if channels or diversions will be used.
a. Show and label each feature on Operations Map, Module 14.
b. Include design criteria, capacity calculations, profile of proposed channel slopes, typical cross sections,
required erosion resistant channel linings and applicable details on Module 7.1 Diversion/Collection Ditch
Data Sheet for all collection ditches and all dikes (if applicable).
7.3
Haul Roads/Access Roads
Provide the following information for each road to be constructed, reconstructed or used in the operation, if
common use roads (as defined in 88.1) or public roads are used for access to the site, this section need not be
completed:
(Note: Activities proposed to be conducted under General Permit for Temporary Road Crossings
(BMR-GP-101) and General Permit for Access Road Crossings (BMR-GP-102) must include a completed
Notification Form, with attachments, for the respective General Permit (i.e., Form 5600-FM-MR0054 for
BMR-GP-101 and Form 5600-FM-MR0059 for BMR-GP-102). BMR-GP-102 may not be used for haul roads.)
a. A narrative description of the location;
b. The location shown on Operations Map, Module 14 (and Module 13 if road will remain as part of
postmining land use);
c. A description and typical cross sections which show the construction of the road including existing ground,
road widths, surfacing materials, grades, slopes, culverts, bridges, outlet protection and other drainage
controls;
d. If surface drainage will be discharged to the drainage system of a public road provide a demonstration that
the drainages stem of the public road is adequate to handle the additional runoff;
e. Measures to control and prevent erosion and sedimentation,; include the proposed spacing of sediment
traps, turnouts culverts check dams etc.;
f.
Plan for reclamation after mining is completed;
g. If the road involves the crossing of an intermittent or perennial stream include Module 8;
h. Will a PennDOT highway occupancy permit be needed?
If yes, provide the permit number prior to permit activation.
