(a) Measures shall be taken to minimize erosion and its impact during construction activity. Prior to construction, a copy of the Notice of Intent (NOI) to use the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency's General Construction Permit, as well as the storm water pollution prevention plan (SWP3) prepared as part of the NOI, shall be submitted with the improvement plans for review by the Municipality. All erosion control devices shall be in place at the start of construction and maintained by the developer at all times, and other measures implemented according to the approved time schedule. Such erosion control devices, techniques and other measures shall not be removed and/or disturbed until earth disturbing activities on the site have been concluded.
(b) Erosion control plans shall be based upon controlling erosion onsite, with the object of eliminating or minimizing erosion or sedimentation impacts off-site. Erosion and sedimentation control plans shall be approved by the Municipal Engineer.
(c) Erosion and sedimentation control techniques will be inspected by the Municipality to ensure compliance with the OEPA General Construction Permit. The cost for this inspection will be included in the retainer for inspection supervision. Failure to maintain the erosion and sedimentation control measures as approved by the Municipality is a violation of the Grandview Heights Planning and Zoning Code, Part 11, Title One Subdivision Regulations.
