1.7 PENALTIES FOR NONCOMPLIANCE WITH THIS SECTION <br />A. In addition to the OWNER's specific remedies, if erosion or pollution is caused by <br />dewatering water or stormwater runoff from the construction site, the OWNER may <br />report the violations to Indian River County Stormwater Enforcement, SJRWMD, <br />FDEP, Indian River Farms Water Control District (or other F. S. Chapter 298 Drainage <br />District, as appropriate), and other pertinent regulatory or enforcement agencies. <br />PART 2 - MATERIALS AND INSTALLATION <br />2.1 GENERAL <br />A. Polyacrylamide: As required in Paragraph 1.3.C, place polyacrylamide (PAM) on bare <br />ground to reduce the potential for erosion and cover it with hay, jute, or mulch. PAM <br />may also be used in water bodies to remove turbidity. In all cases, use the anionic <br />form of polyacrylamide that does not stick to fish gills. For PAM information and its <br />proper application, a contact is Applied Polymer Systems, Inc., (678) 494-5998, <br />www.siltstop.com. <br />B. Staked Silt Fences: <br />1. General: Use silt fences to control runoff from the construction site where the <br />soil has been disturbed. <br />2. Installation: Install per the manufacture's recommendations and as specified <br />herein. In general, install the silt fence in a manner that allows it to stop the <br />water long enough for the sediment to settle while the water passes through the <br />silt fence fabric. All supporting posts shall be on the down-slope side of the <br />fencing. Place the bottom of the fabric 6 -inches minimum, under compacted <br />soil to prevent the flow of sediment underneath the fence. Place silt fences <br />away from the toe of slopes. Otherwise, install in accordance with FDOT Index <br />No. 102. <br />3. Product: All material shall be new and unused. Use FDOT Types III through IV <br />silt fences where large sediment loads are anticipated, where slopes are 1:2 <br />(vertical: horizontal) or steeper, or as directed by the ENGINEER; otherwise use <br />FDOT Type II silt fence. <br />C. Turbidity Barriers: <br />1. General: Use turbidity barriers to control sediment contamination of <br />rivers, lakes, ponds, canals, etc. <br />2. Installation: Install per the manufacturer's recommendations and per FDOT <br />Index No. 103 unless directed otherwise by the ENGINEER. <br />3. Product: All material shall be new and unused. The turbidity barrier shall be a <br />pervious barrier and the fabric color shall be yellow. Use staked turbidity <br />barriers in water less than one -foot deep. Use floating turbidity barriers in water <br />one -foot or deeper. <br />D. Sedimentation Control From Dewatering or Pumping Operations Using Filter Bags: <br />1. Filter bags shall be manufactured using a polypropylene non -woven geotextile <br />and sewn by a double -needle machine, using a high strength nylon thread.
