Erosion and sediment control system definition

Erosion and sediment control system means the use of appropriate erosion and sediment control measures to minimize sedimentation by first reducing or eliminating erosion at the source and then, as necessary, trapping sediment to prevent it from being discharged from or within a project site.
Erosion and sediment control system means the use of appropriate control measures to prevent or minimize the wearing away of soil, sediment, and rock fragments by water, wind, or ice, and to intercept detached or suspended particles to prevent their discharge from or within a project site.
Erosion and sediment control system means combination of erosion and sediment controls (including effective planting and the maintenance thereof) to protect the project site, adjacent private property, watercourses, public facilities, graded improvements, existing natural features, archaeological artifacts, and to relieve waters of suspended sediments or debris prior to discharge from the site.
