Discharges from sedimentation ponds, permanent and temporary impoundments, coal processing waste dams and embankments, and diversions must be controlled, where necessary using energy dissipators, riprap channels, surge ponds, and other devices to reduce erosion, prevent deepening or enlargement of stream channels and minimize disturbances to the hydrologic balance. Discharge structures must be designed according to standard engineering design procedures.
