SEDIMENT CONTROL APPROVAL PROCESS

The sediment control program is administered by Water Resources Engineering. Sediment control must be addressed for all new development within Harford County that disturbs more than 5,000 SQ.FT. of area or involves movement of more than 100 CU YDS of earth. For those developments that require sediment control, design plans that outline what sediment control practices will be utilized to minimize sediment leaving the construction site must be submitted and receive approval prior to any land development activity.

For specific design requirements and legislation please refer to the following documents:

Harford County Code Section 214 (Sediment Control and Stormwater Management)

MD EnvironmenatVisit the Maryland Department of the Environment web site at www.mde.state.md.us.

All sediment control plans must be processed through Harford County’s Development Review Process. As part of this process, the Office of Development Coordination coordinates design plan approval, bonding requirements, and permit approval process for the Department of Public Works. Any questions about project status or time frames for approvals should be directed to that office.
