§ 52.046 INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, RECORD KEEPING, AND REPORTING.
   (A)   After the approval of the stormwater management permit by the City of Greensburg and the commencement of construction activities, the City of Greensburg has the authority to conduct inspections of the work being done to ensure full compliance with the provisions of this section, the Stormwater Technical Standards Manual, design and construction standards, and the terms and conditions of the approved permit.
   (B)   The owner/construction contractor of the site shall inform the City of Greensburg after installation of any underground pipes and fittings prior to backfilling to provide a chance to the City to visually inspect the installation prior to infrastructure being buried.
   (C)   The City of Greensburg also has the authority to perform long-term, post-construction inspection of all public or privately owned stormwater quantity facilities. The inspection will cover physical conditions, available storage capacity, and the operational condition of key facility elements. Stormwater quantity facilities shall be maintained in good condition, in accordance with the designed and approved performance specifications for the facilities, in addition to any prescribed operation and maintenance procedures. Nether the facilities nor the operation and maintenance procedures shall be subsequently altered, revised or replaced except as approved by the City of Greensburg. If deficiencies are found during the inspection, the owner of the facility will be notified by the City of Greensburg and will be required to take all necessary measures to correct such deficiencies. If the owner fails to correct the deficiencies within the allowed time period, as specified in the notification letter, the City of Greensburg will undertake the work and collect from the owner using lien rights if necessary.
   (D)   Assignment of responsibility for maintaining facilities serving more than one lot or holding shall be documented by appropriate covenants to property deeds, unless responsibility is formally accepted by a public body, and determined before the final stormwater permit is approved.
   (E)   Stormwater conveyance facilities may be donated to the City of Greensburg or other unit of government designated by the City of Greensburg, for ownership and permanent maintenance providing the City of Greensburg or other governmental unit is willing to accept responsibility.
