What are the financial effects of turbid waters?

Turbid waters affect the average consumer in a number of ways:

  • Clean up sediment in streets, sewers, ditches
  • Dredge waterways
  • Drinking Water
  • Increased production cost
  • Increased chance of bacterial contamination
  • Lower property values by diminishing the aesthetic value of surface waters
  • Reduces the quality and economic value of recreation areas

Erosion, Sedimentaion and Control Plan

The Erosion, Sedimentation, and Pollutant Control Plan (ESPCP) details Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be used to prevent and minimize erosion and sedimentation on site. The ESPCP must be prepared by a professional licensed in the state of Georgia in one of the following disciplines:

  • Architecture
  • Engineering
  • Forestry
  • Geology
  • Land Survey
  • Landscape Architecture

If more than 50 acres of land are to be disturbed, the ESPCP must be submitted with the NOI to the EPD.
