Seeding mixtures and/or rates not listed above may be used if recommended by the local Soil Conservation District, Natural Resources Conservation Service. Recommendations of Rutgers Cooperative Extension may be used if approved by the Soil Conservation District. Legumes (flotpea, crownwatch, trefoil, lespedeza) should be mixed with proper incalculant prior to planting.
Hydroseeding is a broadcast seeding method usually involving a truck or trailer mounted tank, with an agitation system and hydraulic pump for mixing seed, water and fertilizer and spraying the mix onto the prepared seeded. Mulch SHALL NOT be included in the tank with seed. Short fibered mulch may be applied with a hydroseeder following seeding. (Also see Section IV, Mulching). Hydroseeding is not a preferred seeding method because seed and fertilizer are applied to the surface and not incorporated into the soil. Poor seed to soil contact occurs reducing seed germination and growth. Hydroseeding may be used for areas too steep for conventional equipment to traverse or too obstructed with rocks, stumps, etc.
Seeding rates specified are required when a report of compliance is requested prior to actual establishment of permanent vegetation. Up to 50% reduction is rates may be used when permanent vegetation is established prior to a report of compliance inspection. These rates apply to all methods of seeding.

ALL CRITICAL AREAS SUBJECT TO EROSION (I.E., STEEP SLOPES AND ROADWAY EMBANKMENTS) WILL RECEIVE TEMPORARY VEGETATIVE COVER FOR SOIL STABILIZATION IN COMBINATION WITH STRAW MULCH OR A SUITABLE EQUIVALENT. AT A RATE OF 1 ½ TO 2 TONS PER ACRE AND ANCHORED IN PLACE ACCORDING TO THE SESC STANDARDS.
B.A SUB-BASE COURSE WILL BE APPLIED IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING ROUGH GRADING AND INSTALLATION OF IMPROVEMENTS TO STABILIZE STREETS, ROADS, DRIVEWAYS, AND PARKING AREAS. IN AREAS WHERE NO UTILITIES ARE PRESENT, THE SUB-BASE SHALL BE INSTALLED WITHIN FIFTEEN (15) DAYS OF THE PRELIMINARY GRADING.
Iliogy — to roughen surface and bring clocks to the surface. This is a temporary emergency measure which should be used before soil blowing starts. Begin plowing on windward side of site. Chisel-type plows spaced about 12 inches apart and spring-toothed harrows are examples of equipment which may produce the desired effect.
Barriers — solid board fences, snow fences, burlap fences, crote walls, boles of hay and similar material can be used to control air currents and soil blowing. Calcium chloride — shall be in the form of loose, dry granules or flakes fine enough to feed through commonly used spreaders at a rate that will keep surface moist but not cause pollution or plant damage. If used on steeper slopes, then use other practices to prevent washing into streams or accumulation around plants.
ANY STEEP SLOPS (3-1 OR GREATER) OR ANY EлязING ROADWAYS RECEIVING PIPELINE INSTALLATION WILL BE BACKFILLED AND STABILIZED DAILY, AS THE INSTALLATION CONTINUES.
THE SESC STANDARD FOR STABILIZED CONSTRUCTION ACCESS REQUIRES THE INSTALLATION OF A STONE PAD USING CLEAN, CRUSHED, ANGULAR STONE (ASTM C-33, SIZE NO. 2 OR 3) AT ALL CONSTRUCTION DRIVEWAYS WHERE VEHICLES WILL ACCESS PAVED ROADWAYS FROM UNPAVED AREAS OF THE SITE.
Spinkling — site is sprinkled until the surface is wet.
Barriers — solid board fences, snow fences, burlap fences, crote walls, boles of hay and similar material can be used to control air currents and soil blowing.

PERMANENT VEGETATION IS TO BE SEDED OR SODED ON ALL EXPOSED AREAS WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS AFTER FINAL GRADING. AT THE TIME OF THE FINAL INSPECTION, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE CONFIRMATION THAT THE PROPER TYPE AND AMOUNT OF SEED, LIME AND FERTILIZER HAVE BEEN USED FOR PERMANENT STABILIZATION WORK. STRAW MULCH PROPERLY ANCHORED IN PLACE IS REQUIRED ON ALL SEEDING IN ACCORDANCE TO THE SESC STANDARDS.
Stone - cover surface with crushed stone or coarse gravel.
EMBEDDING DETAIL
12. AT THE TIME THAT SITE PREPARATION FOR PERMANENT VEGETATIVE STABILIZATION IS GOING TO BE ACCOMPLISHED, ANY SOIL THAT WILL NOT PROVIDE A SUITABLE ENVIRONMENT TO SUPPORT ADEQUATE VEGETATIVE GROUND COVER SHALL BE REMOVED OR TREATED IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT WILL PERMANENTLY ADJUST THE SOIL CONDITIONS AND RENDER IT SUITABLE FOR VEGETATIVE GROUND COVER. IE THE REMOVAL OR TREATMENT OF THE SOIL WILL NOT PROVIDE SUITABLE CONDITIONS
N.T.S.
Requirements for bale barrier (e.g., straw, hay, or other acceptable vegetative material):
All bales shall be securely tied and stoked on the contour.
Bales shall be placed in a row with ends tightly abutting the adjacent bales.
Each bale shall be embedded in the soil a minimum of 4 inches.
Bales shall be securely anchored in place by two stakes or re-bars driven through each bale. The first stoke in each bale shall be driven toward previously told bale to force bales together.
NON-VEGETATIVE MEANS OF PERMANENT GROUND STABILIZATION WILL HAVE TO BE EMPLOYED.
13. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SESC STANDARD FOR MANAGEMENT OF HIGH ACID PRODUCING SOILS, ANY
SOIL HAVING A PH OF 4 OR LESS OR CONTAINING IRON SULFIDES SHALL BE COVERED WITH A MINIMUM
SOL HAVING A PH OF 4 OR LESS OR CONTAINING IRON SULFIDES SHALL BE COVERED WITH A MINIMUM OF TWELVE (12) INCHES OF SOIL HAVING A PH OF 5 OR MORE PRIOR TO SEEDBED PREPARATION AREAS WHERE TREES OR SHRUBS ARE TO BE PLANTED SHALL BE COVERED WITH A MINIMUM OF TWENTY-FOUR (24) INCHES OF SOIL HAVING A PH OF 5 OR MORE.
CONDUIT OUTLET PROTECTION MUST BE INSTALLED AT ALL REQUIRED OUTFALLS PRIOR TO THE
DRAINAGE SYSTEM BECOMING OPERATIONAL. CONDUIT OUTLET PROTECTION INSTALLATION SHALL BE
POSTPONED IN BASINS ACTING AS SEDIMENT BASINS DURING CONSTRUCTION.
Sediment Barrier Maintenance
Sediment shall be removed from the upstream face of the barrier when it has reached a depth of 1/2 the barrier height.
Repair or replace barrier (fabric, poets, boles etc.) when damaged.
Barriers shall be inspected daily for signs of deterioration and sediment removal.
UNFILTERED DEWATERING IS NOT PERMITTED. NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE TAKEN DURING ALL DEWATERING OPERATIONS TO MINIMIZE SEDIMENT TRANSFER. ANY DEWATERING METHODS USED MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SESC STANDARD FOR DEWATERING.
SHOULD THE CONTROL OF DUST AT THE SITE BE NECESSARY. THE SITE WILL BE SPRINKLED UNTIL THE SURFACE IS WET, TEMPORARY VEGETATIVE COVER SHALL BE ESTABLISHED, MULCH SHALL BE APPLIED AND ANCHORED IN PLACE, OR OTHER DUST CONTROL METHOD SHALL BE EMPLOYED AS REQUIRED BY THE SESC STANDARD FOR DUST CONTROL.
STOCKPILE AND STAGING LOCATIONS ESTABLISHED IN THE FIELD SHALL BE PLACED WITHIN THE LIMIT OF DISTURBANCE ACCORDING TO THE CERTIFIED PLAN. STAGING AND STOCKPILES NOT LOCATED WITHIN THE LIMIT OF DISTURBANCE WILL REQUIRE CERTIFICATION OF AN AMENDED SOIL EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL PLAN. THE DISTRICT RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DETERMINE WHEN CERTIFICATION OF A NEW AND SEPARATE SOIL EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL PLAN WILL BE REQUIRED FOR THESE ACTIVITIES.
ALL SOIL STOCKPILES ARE TO BE SURROUNDED WITH A SEDIMENT BARRIER AND STABILIZED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SESC STANDARDS. STOCKPILES SHOULD BE SITUATED SO AS TO NOT OBSTRUCT NATURAL DRAINAGE OR CAUSE OFF-SITE ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE.
