Best Management Practices: Stream Crossing [Sr]
To prevent erosion and stream bank damage, temporary crossings should be installed across flowing streams.
A temporary crossing can be a bridge or pipe structure that allows the watercourse to flow without being damaged by construction equipment. When the structure is removed, the stream should be restored to its original shape and properly stabilized.
Permanent structures (a bridge or pipe) should be installed if the stream or creek will need to be crossed after construction is complete.
Live streams should NOT be forded by construction equipment.
