Soil Erosion Sediment Control Stabilized Construction Entrance Silt Fence Expertise in Washington, DC | BBCDC Construction

BBCDC Construction & General Contractors provides turnkey Soil Erosion and Sediment Control (ESC) solutions for residential and multi-family construction projects across Washington, DC. From stabilized construction entrances to full perimeter protection, we help clients meet regulatory requirements while maintaining safe, clean, and professional job sites from day one.

What We Deliver

We install and maintain all critical components of DC-compliant erosion control systems, including:

Stabilized construction entrances using compacted RC2 aggregate over filter fabric

Properly trenched and anchored silt fence with correct overlap and tie-ins

Curb inlet protection, storm drain filters, and perimeter sediment controls

Site-specific implementation based on your DOEE-approved Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Plan

Inspection-ready installs with clear access and sediment containment zones

Stabilized Construction Entrances

A stabilized construction entrance is a gravel pad required by DC’s ESC Plan to reduce tracking of mud and sediment onto public roads. We build these entrances to exacting standards:

Graded sub-base with non-woven geotextile fabric

6–8 inches of compacted RC2 gravel

Integrated filter cloth connections to adjacent silt fence

Sized according to site logistics, vehicle loads, and inspector requirements

Whether you’re starting excavation or awaiting your first inspection, a clean, stabilized access point sets the tone for the entire build.

Why It Matters in Washington, DC

DC’s Department of Energy & Environment (DOEE) mandates erosion and sediment controls on nearly all permitted construction projects. Without compliant controls in place, sites risk:

Stop work orders

Failed inspections

Neighbor complaints and public safety concerns

Drainage violations and environmental fines

Our team ensures everything is done right—from layout and trenching to compaction and documentation.
