(A) The limit of disturbance (LOD) shall be identified, surveyed, delineated on the FCP, and clearly marked in the field. Extending the LOD beyond the preapproved limits, without obtaining prior approval from the county, is a violation of this chapter.

(C) All installed protective measures shall remain in place and be maintained in good condition until completion of construction. Tree protection fence shall only be removed when removal of sediment control devices is approved. Forest conservation signs along the boundaries of forest conservation easement areas shall remain in perpetuity.
(D) Damage occurring to areas of forest or specific trees identified for retention and protection during construction due to a lack of maintenance of protection measures is a violation of this chapter.
