  • Abstract:
    The objective of the study was to monitor and ; document the performance of newly designed ; sediment basins that were constructed for the 502 ; project in Franklin County. The following tasks were ; proposed by the research team to achieve the ; objective: ; Task 1 – Assess performance characteristics of ; sediment basins on the 502 project ; Task 2 – Collect cost data and perform a literature ; review ; Task 3 – Survey of the current state‐of‐the‐practice ; Task 4 – Prepare final project reports documenting ; the findings. ; For Task 1, originally five sediment basins were ; planned to be constructed on the 502 project. ; Basins 2, 3, and 5 were omitted by ALDOT due to ; unfavorable site conditions. Sediment basin 1 was ; constructed in March and April of 2011, but wet ; weather conditions at the location where the basin ; was constructed prevented researchers from ; properly installing the data collection equipment ; after the basin was initially built; therefore basin 1 ; was not monitored. All data collection for Task 1 ; was performed on sediment basin 4 at the 502 ; construction project in Franklin County.
