Management of OHV facilities shall occur in accordance with PRC, Sections 5090.02, 5090.35, and 5090.53." (c) In order to qualify for consideration of its Application, all Applicants submitting proposed Project(s) involving Ground Disturbing Activity shall submit a Soil Conservation Plan that achieves the Soil Conservation Standard with regard to the proposed Project(s). Applicants shall submit only one Soil Conservation Plan for each Application. The Soil Conservation Plan shall encompass all Project Areas for every Project with Ground Disturbing Activities for which funding is requested. (d) The Soil Conservation Plan shall reference, adopt, and utilize the methods, considerations, and other suggestions contained in the Soil Guidelines or other comparable methods or considerations that demonstrate how the Soil Conservation Standard is being or will be met in the Project Area. (e) The Soil Conservation Plan shall include the following components: (1) Protocol for assessment and maintenance To receive funding all OHV Projects involving Ground Disturbing Activities shall have a protocol for assessment and maintenance which considers: (A) Water, wind, and mechanical erosion, (B) Water and sediment control, (C) Tread condition, (D) Off-site impacts, and (E) Watercourse crossings.
