What are the types of water erosion? - ANSWER-- Raindrop erosion, sheet erosion, rill and gully erosion, stream and channel erosion, shoreline erosion, landslides

What is sheet erosion? - ANSWER-- Stripping of soil that occurs due to sheet flows of runoff

Rill and Gully Erosion - ANSWER --If the runoff is allowed to concentrate and gain velocity or energy, it will cut rills and gullies as it detaches more soil particles

Rills: </= to 3" deep

Gullies: 3 or more rills converted to greater that 3" deep

T/F: Rills are more than 75mm deep and are often the start of gullies - ANSWER-- False: gullies are more than 75mm deep

What factors impact rainfall erosion? - ANSWER --Climate events, soil erodibility, length of flow down a slope, slope of land (critical), erosion control BMPs, sediment control BMPs

T/F: Clay is highly erodible - ANSWER-- False

What is sediment? - ANSWER-- The eroded material suspended in water or air

Flocculants - ANSWER-- Chemicals added to a mixture to make suspended particles clump together.

Cationic (bad), Anionic (good)

Who decides the necessary BMPs in the SWPPP for a project? - ANSWER-- Developer/Designer (not inspector)

Types of EC BMPs - ANSWER-- Placement of pavement, installing landscaping materials, establishing vegetation, construction of homes, culverts/slope drains, diversion channels, ECB and TRMs

What is the minimum number of inspections required? - ANSWER-- Once every 14 days

During vertical construction activities, an inspector's job can be quite difficult when you have multiple builders. Who's responsibility is it to install and maintain BMPs in this siutation? - ANSWER--Builders

Of the various types of construction activities, what type will likely keep and inspector the busiest? - ANSWER--Linear

What type of wind erosion is responsible for the highest amount (50- 80%) of soil transport? - ANSWER--Saltation

In regard to rainfall erosion factors, what's more important, the slope of the land or the length of the flow? - ANSWER--Slope

T/F: Inspectors must be able to calculate the amount of runoff at the rate of flows that may occur for precipitation events? - ANSWER--False: designers/reviewers

T/F: When it comes to using flocculants, designers need to have professional skills and expertise in particle removal in order to achieve minimal turbidity of discharge waters. - ANSWER--True

T/F: When an inspector identifies an issue, they should mandate to the builder what the builder must do to remedy the situation. - ANSWER-- False

Items to consider about BMPs - ANSWER--Uses and limitations

Contributing drainage areas

Are BMPs available?

How long will they function?

What pollutants do they treat?

What are some inspector DON'Ts? - ANSWER--Don't redesign SWPPP plans

Don't tell GC how to solve problem

Shall not issue any false statements

Not to seek profit for information/conflict of interest

When to install silt fence barriers? - ANSWER--Before construction begins and while construction is occurring

Inspecting silt fence barriers - ANSWER--Are the stakes on the DS side of fabric?

Rock check structures: Purpose + Requirements - ANSWER--For concentrated flows:

Slows down runoff to allow for deposition

Captures suspended particles along the way

Erosion control IF spaced properly

Must have a low point (for overflows) and end points must be higher than overflow ("Smile")

Check structures as an EC measure - ANSWER--Top of the DS structure must be in-line with the bottom of the US structure to minimize erosion

Inspecting inlet barriers - ANSWER--Look for debris on top of inlet barrier (indicates overflow occurred)

Look for sedimentation behind the barrier (lack of sedimentation entirely or uniformly indicates a failure to block at that location)

On grade conditions - ANSWER--When runoff is diverted AWAY from drain inlet

Inspecting curb and gutter barrier bags - ANSWER--Are appropriate sized rocks used in bags?

Is there overflow around the bag or underneath?

Is the bag too full/compact? Possible tearing?

Is there proper spacing between bag and inlet?

Sediment Containment Systems (SCS) - ANSWER--Purpose: Contain runoff long enough for deposition of suspended particles

Must properly trap and contain waters and embankments must be stabilized against erosion

Types of drainage methods - ANSWER--Filter bag

Riser pipe outlet structure

Skimmer outlets

Filter Bag - ANSWER--Needs replacement when full

Inspect for tears, connection leaks

Riser pipe outlet structure - ANSWER--Pipe must have perforations
