1109.04 EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION CONTROL.
   (a)   Measures shall be taken by the Owner/Developer to minimize erosion and its impacts during subdivision construction activity. The City Engineer may require detailed erosion and sedimentation plans to be submitted if it is determined that the size and/or scale of the proposed subdivision warrants such action. Generally, such a plan shall be required for major subdivisions comprising more than five (5) lots or more than one (1) acre. Such plans shall be prepared by a Professional Engineer, and indicate the techniques to be used to control erosion both during construction and permanently, and include a schedule for installing same. Erosion control plans shall be based on the control of erosion on-site, with the objective of eliminating or minimizing erosion and sedimentation impacts off-site. Techniques, devices and/or measures used shall be reviewed and approved by the City Engineer.
 
   (b)   All erosion and sedimentation control devices shall be in place at the start of construction activity and to be maintained during construction until such time as a permanent grading and seeding is established.
