disposal of spoil.
2. Grade shallow depression uniformly towards the inlet with side
slopes no greater than 2:1. Grade a 1 -foot wide level area set 4 inches
below the area adjacent to the inlet
3. Install the Class B or Class I riprap in a circle around the inlet
The minimum crest width of the riprap should be 18 inches, with a
minimum bottom width of 7.5 feet The minimum height of the stone

Inspect rock doughnut inlet protection at least weekly and after each
significant (1/2 inch or greater) rainfall event and repair immediately.
To provide satisfactory inlet protection efficiency, remove sediment
from the sediment pool area when the volume is decreased by half.
This will help provide adequate storage volume for the next rain,
Stabilize excavated material appropriately.
Take care not to damage or undercut the structure during sediment
removal. Remove debris from the inlet and replace stone as needed.
If the inlet was Covered with wire mesh the mesh should be cleaned of
debris.
When the contributing drainage area has been adequately stabilized,
remove all materials and dispose of sediment properly. Bring the
disturbed area to the grade of the drop inlet Smooth and compact as
it is needed.
Appropriately stabilize all bare areas around the inlet with ground
cover.

3. Constmet the outlet section in the embankment. Protect the Connection between the riprap and the soil from piping by
using filter fabric or a keyway cutoff trench between the riprap structure and soil.
-Place the filter fabric between the riprop and the soil. Extend the fabric across the spillway foundation and sides to the top of
the dam; or
.Excavate a keyway trench along the centerline of the spillway foundation extending up the sides to the height of the dam. The
trench should be at least 2 feet deep and 2 feet wide with 1:1 side slopes.
C Clear the pond area below the elevation of the crest of the spillway to facilitate sediment cleanout.
5. All cut and fill slopes should be 2:1 or flatter.
6. Ensure that the stone (drainage) section of the embankment has a minimum bottom width of 3 feet and maximum side
slopes of 1:1 that extend to the bottom of the spillway section.
7. Construct the minimum finished stone spillway bottom width, as shown on the plans, with 2:1 side slopes extending to the
top of the over filled embankment. Keep the thickness of the sides of the spillway outlet structure at a minimum of 21 inches.
The weir must be level and constructed to grade to assure design Capability.
8. Material used in the stone section should be a well -graded mixture of stone with a d50 size of 9 inches (class B erosion
control stone is rerommended) and a maximum stone size of 14 inches. The stone may be machine placed and the smaller stones
worked into the voids of the larger stones. The stone should be hard, angular and highly weather- resistant
9. Discharge inlet water into the basin in a manner to prevent erosion. Use temporary slope drains or diversions with outlet
protection to divert sediment -laden water to the upper end of the pool area to improve basins trap efficiency( References: Runoff
Control Measures and Outlet Protection).
10. Ensure that the stone spillway outlet section extends downstream past the Ice of the embankment until stable conditions
are reached and outlet velocity is acceptable for the receiving stream. Keep the edges of the stone outlet section flush with the
surrounding ground, and shape the center to confine the outflow stream (References: Surface Stabilization) .
11. Direct emergency bypass to natural, stable areas. Locate bypass outlets so that flow will not damage the embankment.

MAINTENANCE
Inspect temporary sediment traps at least weekly and after each significant (U2 inch or greater) rainfall event and repair
immediately. Remove sediment, and mstore the trap to its original dimensions when the sediment has accumulated to one -half
the design depth of the trap. Place the sediment that is removed in the designated disposal area, and replace the part of the
gravel facing that is impaired by sediment
Check the structure for damage from erosion or piping. Periodically check the depth of the spillway to ensure it is a minimum of
1.5 feet below the low point of the embankment Immediately fill any settlement of the embankment to slightly above design

Follow soil tests or apply 2,000 lb./acre ground agricultural
limestone and 1,000 lb. /acre 10 -10-10 fertilizer.
Apply 4,OOD lb./acre straw. Anchor straw by tacking with asphalt,
netting, or a mulch anchoring tool. A disk with blades set nearly
straight can be used as a mulch anchoring toot.
MAINTENANCE
Repair and refertilize damaged areas immediately. Topdress with
50 lb./acre of nitrogen in march. If it is necessary to extend
temporary cover beyond June 15, overseed with 50 lb./acre
