ISTEA Section 1057
TEA 21 reauthorized ISTEA Section 1057

Site map doesn't show equipment storage locations
3.4.A
SWPPP doesn't give sequence for controls CR
SWPPP doesn't describe all BMPs (eg swales)
3.6.C
Control isn't maintained (silt fence with sediment)
3.11.C
SWPPP not updated; SWPPP not updated within 7 days of inspection, Major BMP (dirt bags) not shown on site map

4. ESCP – Where? Include in Spec’s & Plans and specs
Get new special Spec. Sect. 641 Hwy
Get new special Spec. Sect. 157 Avn
Plan sheets should show:
Pre-construction drainage & contours
Drainage patterns, contours & BMP’s by Phase
Final Plan drainage patterns, contours and permanent BMP’s

5. ESCP vs SWPPP ESCP is basis for Contractor to bid SWPPP
ESCP should include EVERYTHING listed in and Chapter 16
ESCP should be the basis of the Contractor’s SWPPP plan
Plan sheets should show preconstruction, during by phase, and after construction
