AMERICAN PUBLIC WORKS ASSOCIATION - KANSAS CITY METRO CHAPTER
WATER RESOURCES COMMITTEE - EROSION CONTROL SUB-COMMITTEE
CONSENSUS DOCUMENT FOR UPDATES TO THE STANDARD DRAWINGS
MARCH 2015
A. INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this document is to 1) communicate to the APWA Kansas City Metro Chapter and Water Resources
Management Committee what the goals of the Erosion Control Sub-Committee are, and 2) gain consensus within
the APWA Kansas City Metro Chapter and Water Resources Management Committee on the updates to the
standard drawings that the Erosion Control Sub-Committee has developed.
The original erosion and sediment control specifications, design criteria, and standard drawings were created in
the early 2000’s. The specifications and design criteria were last updated in 2008 and 2010, respectively. The
standard drawings were in the most need of updates because they have not been updated since their original
development and they deviated from the current industry focus more than the other documents. Subsequent to
the creation of the current erosion and sediment control standard drawings, the industry shifted its focus to
erosion control BMPs (before erosion occurs) as the primary line of defense, with sediment control BMPs (after
erosion occurs) as a secondary line of defense. A significant change in the standard drawings will be required in
order to align with the current focus of the industry. This document serves to gain consensus on what the industry
standard of practice is for erosion and sediment control in the Kansas City Metro region before spending the
resources to make updates.
B. GOALS OF THE EROSION CONTROL SUB-COMMITTEE
Below are the goals of the Erosion Control Sub-Committee. The items in bold represent the committees current
focus.
1) Define Functions of Erosion Control in the Kansas City Metro and Gain Consensus
a) Research current state of the practice, define the functions of erosion control as it relates to the Kansas
City Metro area, and gain consensus within the erosion control sub-committee.
b) Submit what the sub-committee feels is the current state of the practice to the overall committee for
broader consensus.
2) Standard Drawings for Erosion and Sediment Control
a) Review the revisions/mark-ups that were proposed for the standard drawings by the last erosion
control committee and determine what still applies.
b) Review the updates that have already been made to the standard drawings and determine what still
applies.
c) Submit new revisions to the standard drawings to the overall committee for approval.
3) Section 5100 – Guidance for Erosion and Sediment Control
a) Review 5100 and determine if any updates/revisions are necessary.
4) Section 2150 – Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control
a) Review 2150 and determine if any updates/revisions are necessary.
b) Coordinate with, and provide input to, the consultant hired by the Metro Chapter Executive Committee
to perform a needs assessment and update the specifications.
2
5) Metro-Wide Education and Adoption of the Guidance, Specifications, and Standard Drawings
a) Focus on educating the communities, inspectors, contractors, engineers, etc. about these documents and
what changes have been made.
b) Determine which cities are using the documents and how they can be improved to serve them better.
c) Create a list of reasons that cities do not use these documents.
Note: It is assumed that the reader has a working knowledge of erosion and sediment control. The current design guidance (5100) and
specifications (2150) should be referenced if more information on the “why” and “how” of erosion and sediment control is needed.
C. PURPOSE OF THE SPECIFICATIONS AND STANDARD DRAWINGS
The purpose of the specifications and standard drawings is to provide minimum standards for design, materials,
and methods of construction for erosion and sediment control practices within the Kansas City region. The
standard drawings and specifications should represent current and proven practices. The purpose of the standard
drawings is to compliment the standard specifications by providing a visual representation of the requirements
when needed.
D. MEETINGS AND RESEARCH
The sub-committee met on a 3-week basis from June 2013 to July 2014. The first meetings focused on the work
that the previous erosion control committee pursued, as well as setting goals for the current committee. After the
goals were set, discussions and research were performed for each erosion and sediment control best management
practice (BMP) type so the committee could reach a consensus on their functions and applications. High-level
brainstorming was performed on each BMP type during the committee meetings. A list of topics was developed
and a task team was assigned to do further research on the topics between meetings. The task teams researched,
discussed, and documented their findings. In order to gain consensus, the task team presented their findings on
each topic to the rest of the sub-committee. Some of the typical questions answered by the task teams included:
• What is the intended function of each BMP type?
• What are the current issues?
• What is working well?
• What are the issues with the current standard drawings for each BMP type?
• What are the most widely used BMPs?
• What are the current standards of practice for each BMP type, and are they acceptable?
• What are the state of the art practices for each BMP type, and should we consider it as a standard practice?
E. RECOMMENDATIONS
This section presents general issues for each BMP type and recommendations for how the standard drawings
should be modified. Recommendations include a description of the intended function and intended application for
each BMP. The primary goals with the revisions are to reduce the clutter in the current standard drawings and
make them more useable. The impression of the committee was that only certain standard drawings are being
used on a regular basis, and some are never or very rarely used. In general, the committee recommends that
reference to proprietary materials be avoided.
Sample Layout
The committee concluded that it would be beneficial to include a sample site layout of an erosion and sediment
control system. This would include the most commonly used BMPs and how they might be used together to more
effectively reduce erosion on a typical project site.
3
EROSION CONTROL (PRIMARY LINE OF CONTROL)
Erosion control BMPs are intended to reduce the erosion of soil at its source, before the flow becomes
concentrated and more difficult to remove suspended sediment from. Some erosion control BMPs can also be
used to reduce wind-blown sediment and provide dust control.
Ground Cover
Ground cover significantly reduces erosion of sediment by controlling it at its source and is typically provided to
reduce sheet and rill erosion.
• Seeding & Sodding – The committee decided that the requirements for this type of BMP could be adequately
conveyed in the specifications, and including standard drawings would not provide a significant additional
benefit. The committee proposes to remove sheets ESC-02 and ESC-03 from the current standard drawings.
The committee also felt that the specifications for temporary seeding could be updated with more information
about fertilizers and different types of vegetation, especially native grasses.
• Mulch, Compost, Straw/Hay, & Hydro-Type Cover – The committee concluded that the requirements for this
type of BMP could be adequately conveyed in the specifications, and including standard drawings would not
provide a significant additional benefit. There is currently no standard drawing for this BMP, and the
committee agreed that a standard drawing is not needed for this BMP type. The committee also felt that the
specifications for these types of ground cover have changed over the past few years and also needs to be
updated.
• Surface Roughening – The committee concluded that the requirements for this type of BMP could be
adequately conveyed in the specifications, and including standard drawings would not provide a significant
additional benefit. There is currently no standard drawing for this BMP, and the committee agreed that a
standard drawing is not needed for this BMP type.
• Erosion Control Blankets/Mats (ECBs and ECMs) Class I – The committee concluded that the current standard
drawings do not address ECMs adequately. The basic requirements listed in the specifications are adequate,
but some modifications could be made based on changes that have occurred in the industry since they were
last updated. Updates to the standard drawings should include the following:
o The committee felt that the 2015 Overland Park detail and the 2015 KDOT details for ECBs/ECMs were a
good place to start with for creating updated standard drawings.
o A note should be included indicating selection and installation should be done according to the
manufacturer’s instructions. The specifications should be reference for determining which types to use.
o Show the typical layout patterns in relation to slope, overlap/splicing requirements, anchoring pattern,
and the difference between slope installations and channel in-channel installations (i.e. KDOT Class I
versus Class II).
Ditch/Channel Protection
The function of ditch and channel protection is to increase bed shear resistance to concentrated flow. This is
typically accomplished by installing materials that have a higher shear resistance than the applied shear of the
flow.
• Sod – The committee concluded that the requirements for this type of BMP could be adequately conveyed in
the specifications, and including standard drawings would not provide a significant additional benefit. The
committee proposes to remove sheets ESC-02 and ESC-03 from the current standard drawings.
• Erosion Control Blankets/Mats (Class II) – See recommendations for ECB/ECM Class I.
4
• Rock/Riprap and Outlet Protection – Riprap channel protection was considered a permanent erosion control
measure, and is covered under a separate document (APWA 5600). However, it is important to construct this
type of permanent erosion protection as soon as possible after construction of ditches and outfalls to reduce
the potential for significant erosion.
• Channel Crossings and Temporary Stream Relocation– Access road channel crossings and temporary stream
relocations are used to reduce erosion and sediment discharge into the channel during in-stream construction.
o The committee felt the need to address some of the non-structural items such as timing of construction
during low flows, complying with all proper permits, etc.; but that should be taken care of in the
specifications and not on the standard drawings.
o The committee decided that the current standard drawing for channel crossings was adequate, but that
the notes could be simplified and cleaned up. The 2015 Overland Park standard drawing was considered
a good starting point for updating the notes.
SEDIMENT CONTROL (SECONDARY LINE OF CONTROL)
These types of BMPs are intended to capture sediment after is has eroded and before it enters receiving
waterways.
Linear Slope Protection
Linear slope protection is defined as BMPs that are intended to treat sediment laden sheet flow runoff from
slopes. They are intended to run perpendicular to the slope (along contours).
• Silt Fence – The committee reviewed KDOT, OP, and APWA standard drawings for silt fence. In general, silt
fence is intended for larger areas when slopes are flat, with runs at the toe and at intervals no more than
maximum spacing. It can be used with smaller areas when slopes are steep, but must include runs at the toe
and at intermediate intervals.
o Key Issues and Standard Drawing Updates
� Which Template to Use – The committee felt the 2015 Overland Park standard drawing for silt fence
was a good place to start a new APWA standard drawing, and that it best communicates the
committee’s ideas for what should be included in a silt fence standard, especially placement.
� Fabric Attachment – The committee discussed methods for attaching fabric to posts. The current
standard drawings require the using a minimum of one inch long, heavy-duty wire staples or tie-
wires. The KDOT standard detail allows for the use of zip ties. The committee decided that a general
recommendation to securely fasten the fabric to the stakes using staples or ties (wire or zip types)
was adequate.
� Post Spacing - The current standard drawing indicates a maximum post spacing of 6 feet, which is in
conflict with the specifications. Variable spacing was considered based on tighter spacing for pooling
areas and wider spacing for open runs, but the committee thought it would be too confusing. The
committee recommends using the 4-foot spacing as provided in the specifications.
� Use of Wire-Backed Silt Fence – The committee concluded that this type of silt fence might be useful
in some cases and recommends leaving it as an option. However, it is recommended that the existing
wire-backed silt fence standard drawing be consolidated and combined with the drawing for standard
silt fence.
� Materials and Permeability – The current standard drawing requires the use of “extra-strength
sediment fence fabric” be used, which is in conflict with the specifications. The committee
recommends using AASHTO M 288 fabric as provided in the specifications.
5
� Ponding Height – The current standard drawings require a 24-inch maximum ponding height against
silt fence, and the specifications require providing “maximum storage volume without overtopping”
and the “installation shall create a broad, shallow pool of retained runoff”. The committee concluded
that a ponding statement is not needed on the standard drawing, but recommends that the
maximum exposed height of silt fence be approximately 24-inches.
� Trenching versus Slicing – The current standard drawings provide details for both trenching and
slicing methods. The specifications give preference to slicing, only allowing the use of trenching when
slicing isn’t possible. The committee recommends consolidating the two current standard drawings
into one, and revising the standard drawing to conform to the specifications.
� Use as a Ditch Check – The general experience of the committee was that silt fence has not
performed well as a ditch check for various reasons. However, because the DOTs still consider this a
viable use for silt fence, the committee recommends leaving it in the standard drawings and adding
clarifying the requirements for installation. See the Temporary Ditch Checks topic in this document
for additional information.
� Wire Staples in Trench – The KDOT standard detail shows 6-inch sire staples at 3-foot centers. The
committee concluded that staples are not needed because of giving preference to slicing, and that
the trench back fill will be adequate to anchor the silt fence when using the trenching method.
Additionally, staples may be difficult to install for the cases when trenching is allowed (rocky soils,
roots, etc.).
� Length of Individual Runs – The current standard drawings and specifications do not indicate a
maximum length for a run of silt fence. The committee concluded that a maximum length was
needed in order to promote using silt fence as a series of “pockets”. In reviewing other standards,
most varied from 100 to 250 feet for maximum run length. The committee recommends using 100
feet maximum length for an individual run of silt fence.
• Compost and Wood Mulch Berm – General consensus of the committee that compost and mulch berms are
very effective at treating sheet flow runoff, and there have been many successful installations in the metro
area. Highly recommended when the material is available on site.
o The committee recommends that the 2015 Overland Park standard drawing be used as a base for
updating the standard drawing because it includes the use of wood mulch.
• Compost and Mulch Filter Logs – Compost and mulch filter logs are similar to silt fence in their function and
should be placed in a similar manner.
o The committee concluded that the compost specification should also include wood mulch as an option.
o The committee recommends that a standard detail be added for compost and mulch filter logs. These
standard details could include their use as slope protection, inlet protection, ditch check, and concrete
wash-out. The height should be adjusted as needed for specific application.
o Place a note on the standard drawing that they are applicable to grass or pavement areas.
Flow Diversions
Diverted water may be full of sediment if coming from disturbed portions of the site, so should go to a sediment
trap/basin. Flow diversions can also be used to divert clean water around disturbed areas.
• Diversion Ditches/Berms – The committee felt that the current standard drawing for diversion did a good job
of describing the different types of diversions, but lacked information on how they should perform as part of a
system to divert water around disturbed areas or steep slopes.
o The standard drawing should be revised to include information on system function. The general phasing
and example sheet should also provide additional information on system function.
6
o The committee concluded that the 2015 Overland Park standard drawing for diversions was a start.
• Slope Drains – This type of BMP is typically used in combination with diversion ditches to drop them down a
steep slope.
o The committee noted that this BMP type is used occasionally, and they felt it should still be provided as
an option in the standard drawings.
o The committee recommended using the 2015 Overland Park or 2015 KDOT standard drawing for slope
drains was a good starting point.
Inlet Protection
Inlet protection involves those measures that are placed on or near the opening of storm inlets and culverts. They
are most often sediment controls or filters and act as a last line of defense before runoff enters a pipe system.
Define inlet protection and its issues.
General Issues and Standard Drawing Updates
o Which Template to Use - The committee felt the 2015 Overland Park and KDOT standard drawing updates
for area and curb inlets were a good start for new standard drawings for inlet protection.
o Inlet Types Covered - The committee recommends that the specifications and standard drawings be
applicable to multiple types of inlet protection. The three main types of inlet are area, curb, and culvert.
Area inlets primarily consist of grate/drop inlets, field/area inlets, and landscape inlets (12 inches or
smaller). Curb inlets consist primarily of curb inlets, combination inlets, and trench drains.
o Construction Phasing - The committee recommends that the standard drawings address both the rough
grading phase and final grading phase of construction. The first phase represents the time prior to
stabilization or paving of the area around the inlet, while the second phase represent the time after
stabilization or paving of the area around the inlet and up to the end of construction activities. Curb inlets
are effectively area inlets during the first phase of construction and should be protected as such.
o Ponding versus Filtering - The committee concluded that most standard inlet controls rely on ponding and
sedimentation as the primary mechanism, and should be understood as such. In most cases, filtering is a
secondary function. If a measure is proposed that involves filtering primarily, it should be shown to work
in that capacity without clogging.
o Proprietary Products - The committee recommends that the standard drawing be generic in nature, and
proprietary products should not be specifically recommended.
o Sump Inlets – The committee recommends adding a note to the standard drawings that addresses bypass
to sump inlets. Larger storm events should be allowed to bypass the protection and overtop into the inlet
to reduce bypass to sumps. The standard drawings should favor inlet protection that allows this to
happen.
o Maintenance - The committee recommends continuing to include maintenance notes on the plans
because they will be included in a SWPPP. The notes should be updated to conform to the specifications.
• Phase I (prior to stabilization of site, all inlet types)
o Ponding – The committee recommends that the area around the inlet be excavated to provide additional
ponding volume. This would help settle out additional suspended solids by increasing the detention time
before entering into the inlet.
o Installation Location – The committee recommends that the protection be placed as close as possible to
the inlet to reduce erosion of soil as the water spills over the protection.
7
• Phase II (after stabilization of the site)
o Flexible Contact Seal– The committee recommends that a flexible seal is needed to reduce bypass under
or around the sides of inlet protection.
o Straw Waddles – The committee recommends that straw waddles only be used with landscape drains and
where contributing drainage areas are very small.
• Culvert Inlets
o Use - The committee recommends that temporary sediment traps be used upstream of culvert entrances,
on small drainages. The type of barrier needs to be secure enough to withstand high flows, which in
many cases that will mean the use of a rock barrier.
o The committee concluded that culvert protection must depend on the size of drainageway being
protected. For large culverts that effectively serve perennial or intermittent streams, it may not be
appropriate to disturb the stream channel at all.
o The committee felt that the 2015 Overland Park or 2015 KDOT standard drawing for culvert inlet
protection was a good starting point for updates.
Ditch/Channel Protection
The primary sediment control BMP for ditch and channel protection is ditch checks. Check dams can be used to
reduce velocity and lower shear stress in the channel, as well as provide some small ponding areas that give
suspended sediment an opportunity to settle out. They are typically used for temporary ditches and channels
during mass grading, while erosion control measures are used during and after final grading.
• Temporary Ditch Checks – There are multiple types of ditch checks available, but they should all perform the
same primary function. The most common types are rock, compost/mulch logs, silt fence, and A-frame or
triangular silt dikes.
o Which Template to Use – The committee felt that the KDOT standard drawings were a good
representation of how the ditch check standard drawing should look. They are concise and show multiple
types of ditch checks on two pages.
o Contributing Drainage Area – This is one of the biggest issues with ditch checks, and the committee
recommends setting limits on the contributing drainage area. The design criteria states 10 acres for ditch
checks, but research indicated that most other entities had a maximum drainage area of 5 acres. Due to
lack of information about this topic, the committee did not come to a consensus and recommends that
the maximum drainage area remain as currently shown in the current 5100 design critera.
o Clear Zone – A note should be added to the standard drawing to make sure that ditch checks that remain
in place after traffic is open aren’t violating clear zone requirements.
o Ground Cover – The committee felt it was important to emphasize stabilization of the ditch/channel as
soon as possible to reduce erosion in the ditch/channel.
o Materials – The committee concluded that the materials listed in the specification were adequate and the
standard drawings should conform to that. However, updates are needed to the specifications in order to
allow the use of compost/mulch logs.
o Removal or Reuse – The committee recommends allowing the contractor the option to spread out the
rock from the ditch check and reuse it as channel lining.
Sediment Trap/Basin
Sediment traps and basins consist of relatively large ponding areas that promote settlement of suspended soil
particles. A sediment basin includes outlet works that will drain or partially drain the basin in one to two days, and
8
includes a spillway to pass larger flows. Sediment traps do not include an outlet works and serve smaller drainage
areas. Both types are typically used in conjunction with diversion dikes or other runoff conveyance as a
downstream sediment control device.
• Sediment Trap - The committee felt that the 2015 Overland Park sediment trap standard drawing was a good
template to start with because it modified and combined the APWA sediment trap detail with the APWA
culvert inlet sediment trap detail, which were both very similar. The additional notes and drawing updates
were also more concise.
• Sediment Basin -The committee concluded that the sediment basin detail was out of date and needed to be
updated. It was decided that the 2015 Overland Park detail was a good starting point for updates to the
sediment basin details.
Good Housekeeping
• Construction Entrance – Used to reduce the amount of sediment that leaves the site from construction traffic.
o The 50 foot length may not be enough in some cases. The general note states that 50 feet is the
minimum and that additional length may be needed to adequately remove mud and debris from tires.
Additional clarification should be added.
o The washouts and rumble strips are not being used, so the committee recommends that they be removed
from the standard drawing and added as a note to be optional.
o The specifications state the rock should be 4 inches, but the standard drawings state 2-3 inch rock should
be used. The size of the rock should be large enough to “rattle” off mud and debris, and not stick to or
get stuck in tires as there was a concern with the smaller rocks breaking windshields. The committee
recommends that the standard drawings show 4 inch rock to conform to the specifications.
• Concrete Washout – The committee concluded that the requirements for concrete washouts could be
adequately conveyed in the specifications at this time. The need for future updates should be assessed during
future reviews. There is currently no standard drawing for this BMP, and the committee agreed that a
standard drawing would not provide a significant benefit.
• Dewatering – The committee concluded that the requirements for dewatering could be adequately conveyed
in the specifications at this time. There is currently no standard drawing for this BMP and the committee
agreed that a standard drawing would not provide a significant benefit.
• Trash and Debris - The committee concluded that the requirements for trash and debris removal could be
adequately conveyed in the specifications at this time. There is currently no standard drawing for this BMP,
and the committee agreed that a standard drawing would not provide a significant benefit.
• Dust Control – The committee concluded that the requirements for dust control could be adequately
conveyed in the specifications at this time. There is currently no standard drawing for this BMP, and the
committee agreed that a standard drawing would not provide a significant benefit. See Ground Cover for
more information. The committee also discussed the use of asphalt emulsion as a standard dust control
method, as stated in the specifications, and concurred that it should only be used if required for construction
of pavement.

G. SCHEDULE FOR UPDATES TO STANDARD DRAWINGS
Once approval of this document is achieved, then work on updating the standard drawings will begin. After the
standard drawings are updated, they will be submitted to the overall committee for review and approval before
being released to the general public.
• Spring 2015 – Gain consensus from KC Metro Chapter (Water Resources Committee) on this erosion control
consensus document.
• Summer 2015 – Update standard drawings
• Fall 2015 – Submit new standard drawings to overall committee for comments
• Winter 2015-2016 – Make updates based on comments and submit final version
H. SPECIFICATION UPDATES
The Metro Chapter Executive Committee has hired a consultant to perform a review and update of the APWA
Metro Chapter specifications as a whole. This committee performed an ancillary review of the current 2150
specifications for erosion and sediment control, and a short list of potential updates was compiled. This list was
provided to the executive committee to give to the specifications consultant, and additional coordination is
planned. If anyone wishes to provide comments on the current 2150 specifications, or add items that could be
addressed by the consultant, then please send them to the erosion control committee.
