§ 154.08   APPLICATION REVIEW AND SESC PERMIT PROCEDURES.
   (A)   Prior to issuance of any SESC Permit, the DPW Director or his or her designee may enter at all reasonable times, and upon reasonable notice of the landowner, in or upon any private or public property for the purpose of inspecting and investigating site conditions or proposed measures set forth in the soil erosion and sedimentation permit application or plan.
   (B)   The DPW shall approve or disapprove an application within 30 calendar days following receipt of a complete application, as may have been modified. The DPW shall notify an applicant of approval by first-class mail. If an application is disapproved, then the DPW shall advise the applicant by certified mail of its reasons for disapproval and conditions required for approval. The DPW need not notify an applicant of approval or disapproval by mail if the applicant is given written approval or disapproval of the application in person. A SESC permit given to the applicant either in person or by first-class mail constitutes approval.
   (C)   If applicable upon a determination that a SESC permit applicant has met all of the requirements of this ordinance, Part 91 and the Rules, the DPW shall issue a SESC permit for the proposed earth change.
   (D)   As a condition for the issuance of a SESC permit, the DPW may require the Applicant to deposit with the City Clerk, in the form of a certified check, an irrevocable bank letter of credit, or a surety or performance bond acceptable to the city, in an amount sufficient to assure the installation and completion of such protective or corrective measures as may be required by the DPW.
