Common use of Erosion and Sediment Control Clause in Contracts

Erosion and Sediment Control. The Owner shall also ensure that all required sediment and erosion controls are in place and properly maintained so as to prevent erosion damage to the site or surrounding land, damage to the environment, and the export of sediment from the site. The appropriate erosion and sediment control measures are to be installed prior to construction and site disturbance and are to be maintained until all disturbed areas are stabilized. The measures are to be maintained and disturbed areas stabilized so as to ensure that sediments do not enter any watercourse, wetland, lake, pond or sensitive area. If the erosion and sediment control measures are inadequate, the deficiencies are to be immediately addressed and rectified. It is the Owner’s responsibility to implement, monitor and maintain all such works. All material stockpiled for a period of 30 days or longer must be stabilized or re- vegetated to prevent erosion.
