No person shall do any blasting without first obtaining a blasting permit.
An application for a blasting permit may be accepted for review by the Town Engineer only after all possible alternative design concepts and construction methods have been explored and rejected. The burden of justifying the necessity for the use of dynamite or similar explosives on a construction site is the applicant’s.
Any proposed project requiring the blasting of natural terrain to achieve an engineered grade is discouraged by the Town of Danville unless reviewed by the Town Engineer. New construction shall be designed to conform to the existing terrain. (Ord. #89-22, §92-8.15)
