Henderson requires erosion and sediment control measures on construction sites. The city enforces Nevada DEP regulations and Henderson Municipal Code provisions requiring dust control, silt barriers, and site stabilization. Desert construction requires special attention to wind erosion and fugitive dust in addition to water erosion.
Erosion and sediment control plans must be submitted with construction permits. Henderson's desert environment means dust control is as important as water erosion control. BMPs include silt fences, gravel construction entrances, watering for dust suppression, and temporary stabilization of disturbed areas. The Clark County Department of Air Quality also regulates fugitive dust from construction sites.
Failure to control erosion and dust may result in stop-work orders, fines from both the city and Clark County Air Quality, and state enforcement.
