(a) When a proposed development area consists of one or more acres and earth-disturbing activities are proposed for the whole area or any part thereof, the owner of record shall develop an erosion, sediment and stormwater control plan and submit the same for review of its adequacy. Such a plan shall contain sufficient information, drawings and notes to describe how soil erosion and off-site sedimentation will be kept to a minimum, both during and after construction. No earth-disturbing activities shall commence prior to approval of the erosion, sediment and stormwater control plan by the Safety-Service Director with the advice of the Madison Soil and Water Conservation District.
(b) When a proposed development area involves less than one acres, it is not necessary to submit an erosion, sediment and stormwater control plan. However, the responsible person must comply with other provisions of these Regulations. Submittal of specific information may be required to determine compliance.
(c) The erosion, sediment and stormwater control plan shall be certified by a professional engineer registered in the State of Ohio.
(d) All plans should be submitted to the Madison Soil and Water Conservation District and the London Safety-Service Director.
(e) The Madison Soil and Water Conservation District shall be notified seventy- two hours before the commencement of earth-disturbing activities. However, in the event that activities are scheduled to begin on a Monday, the Madison Soil and Water Conservation District office must be notified by 3:00 p.m. the preceding Thursday. The Madison Soil and Water Conservation District shall also be notified when the project is completed.
(f) All improvements will be constructed in conformity with approved plans. Those recommendations made on-site will be formalized in letter form, and, in the event of necessity, the responsible party must adhere to the advice of the individual making the inspection.
