(A) Conformance with operational plans. All construction, land-disturbing activity, and new development shall comply with any applicable operational plan.
(B) Maintenance agreement. The property owner of the land for which a project is proposed and an NRMP is required shall enter into an agreement with the city which shall be approved by the city and shall provide for design specifications, the maintenance and inspection requirements and right of access, for any permanent stormwater management device, facility, or structure for infiltration and filtration as required by this chapter. The agreement shall apply to the current property owner and to any assigns, heirs or subsequent owners of the property. The duly executed agreement, and any amendment thereto, shall be recorded against the property with the Dakota County Recorder’s Office.
(C) Temporary erosion and sediment control standards.
(1) All projects requiring an NRMP, regardless of disturbance size, shall, at a minimum, meet the construction activity requirements specified in the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency NPDES Permit for construction activity. Such minimum standard shall not prohibit the city from requiring further protection measures as deemed necessary to prevent pollution or protect human health, welfare, or safety as set forth in this chapter.
(2) No land disturbing activity shall commence without first properly installing BMPs, unless written permission is granted otherwise by the city.
(3) Temporary erosion and sediment controls shall be installed and maintained while any disturbance of land is undertaken so as to prevent and reduce pollution entering any water body or stormwater facility. Temporary erosion and sediment controls are required even if an NRMP is not required for the activity and said controls shall be as required herein for any activity for which an NRMP is required.
(D) No person shall deposit or permit the deposit of any illicit discharge into the city’s stormwater system.
