§ 54.021 EROSION PREVENTION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL (EPSC) PLAN.
   The designer and/or engineer is ultimately responsible for the details of design of any EPSC Plan required, with the property owner/developer being responsible for implementation and performance of the design as installed. The EPSC Plan shall include the following:
   (A)   EPSC plan requirements for a level 1 site development permit. There are no EPSC plan requirements as long as the site disturbance remains less than an acre or the development does not become part of a larger development. If either occurs, the level 1 permit will be revoked and a stop work order will be evoked until the proper level 2 site development permit is approved. Best management practices for erosion prevention should still be employed as outlined in § 54.023.
   (B)   EPSC plan requirements for a level 2 site development permit.
      (1)   A natural resources map that includes features of concern such as topography, streams or soil types of a scale equivalent to balance of other plan details;
      (2)   A schedule of events for the construction of the development site, including stripping and clearing, rough grading, construction of utilities, infrastructure, final grading and landscaping. Sequencing shall identify the expected date on which clearing will begin, the estimated duration of exposure of cleared areas, areas of clearing, installation of temporary EPSC measures, and establishment of permanent vegetation;
      (3)   All EPSC measures necessary shall be shown on the plan by location and referred to by a legend for all phases of construction. Depending upon the complexity of the project, the drafting of intermediate plans may be required at the close of each season. Multiple EPSC plan sheets may be necessary to best convey requirements for each phase;
      (4)   Seeding mixtures and rates, types of sod, method of seedbed preparation, expected seeding dates, type and rate of lime and fertilizer application, and type and quantity of mulching for both temporary and permanent vegetative control measures;
      (5)   Provisions for maintenance of control facilities, including easements and estimates of the cost of maintenance;
      (6)   The proposed plan to control site waste, including a delineation of contractor staging areas for equipment and fuel storage, site materials and temporary facilities.
   (C)   Modifications to the EPSC Plan shall be processed and accepted or denied in the manner described in § 54.020 and may be authorized by the MS4 representative or their designee through written notification to the permittee.
