DESIGN PROFESSIONALS & PLAN REVIEWERS
Did you know that Alternative BMPs are now allowed on ES&PC Plans?
Required Documentation for Alternative BMPs: 1. One page summary detailing why the alternative BMP is equivalent or superior to the conventional BMPs found in the "Manual for Erosion and Sedimentation Control in Georgia". 2. Documented side by side testing (alternative BMP vs. conventional BMP) using the appropriate design requirements and specifications contained in the Manual. 3. Proof that the alternative BMP was previously installed and worked under conditions comparable to the environmental conditions of the proposed site. This can be documented with photographs. 4. All specifications including the design requirements and the procedures for proper installation and maintenance. All forms of documentation must be signed and certified by the Design Professional who is preparing the ES&PC Plan and must includes the Design Professional's seal and GSWCC Design Professional certification.
What if a LIA with MOA wants to deny an alternative BMP? Answer: The LIA with the MOA must forward the ES&PC Plan with the required alternative BMP documentation to the GSWCC (Urban Program). Click here for a copy of the Guidance Document |
