PRACTICE QUESTIONS
◉ Existing Veg, Objectives. Answer: 1) Site Plan and Mang
2) Erosi Cont
3) Sedi Cont
4) Post-Cons Mang
◉ Existing Veg, applic. Answer: 1) Areas within site where no const
activity is occur
2) Areas where local, state and fed govt require preservation
3) Areas where existing veg can be utilized for eros, sedi, and storm
water quality.
◉ Existing veg: inspection. Answer: 1) Accord to regu timetables
2) erosi and damage veg
3) sufficient moisture to ensure growth
4) veg is well stab
5) adequate cover
6) debris and litter
,7) invasive exotics
◉ Existing veg: maint. Answer: 1) only disturb area for construct
2)irrigate dry seasons
3) remove see, and replant if need be
4) replant or rework buffer strips
5) mow and cut perennial weeds
6) remove all trash and debri
7) treat invasive and noxious species
◉ Sched/Sequ, purp/descrip. Answer: Temp, procedural control that
involves creating a written plan to address neck bmps and
sequencing of construct activities to mitigate the erosive effects of
wind,water and construct activities.
◉ Sched/Sequ: object. Answer: 1) site planning & management
2) erosion control
3) sediment control
◉ Sched/Sequ: applications. Answer: 1) develop timetables for
certain activities, paretic during rainy season
,◉ Sched/Sequ: inspect. Answer: 1) inclusion of sched/seq as a bmp
in the plan
2) ached site activities mirroring ached activites.
◉ Sched/Sequ: maintanence. Answer: 1) modify ached of active
when changes are warranted
2) modify ached of active prior to rainy season to reflect updated
bmp info
◉ Hydroseed: Des& purp. Answer: Temp or perm bmp designed to
reduce erosion and runoff by applying mix of seed, fert and
stabilizing emulsion.
◉ Hydroseed: object. Answer: 1) erosion control
2) good housekeeping/ materials management
3) post construct management
◉ Hydroseed: targeted pollut. Answer: 1) sediment
2) nutrients
3) metals
4) ph
◉ Hydroseed: imp consid. Answer: 1) need adequate moisture
, 2) additional mulch may be added
3) pretreatment where cover is not met
4) apply from multi angles to avoid shadowing
◉ Hydroseed: limitations. Answer: 1) seed mix approp for seasonal
conditions
2) time of application per seasonal conditions
3) difficult on steep slopes
4) no pedestrian or vehicle traffic
5) avoid high winds
◉ Hydroseed: inspect:. Answer: 1) adequate coverage of diet areas
2) signs of pedest or vehicle traffic
3) signs of animal activity
4) check seed mix for correct type and application rate
◉ Hydroseed: Maint. Answer: 1) reapply in areas needing more
cover
2) insure proper moisture
3) maintain unbroken coverage through out project
4) require repair due to traffic or animals
