The following provisions will apply to all clearing governed by this chapter:
A. Dust Control: During clearing, and until revegetation or stabilization has taken place, dust shall be minimized through the application of generally acceptable dust suppressants. Water, although generally accepted, is not preferred. Unacceptable dust controls are those that would have an adverse effect on human, animal or plant life, or cause property damage.
B. Erosion Control: During land clearing, and until revegetation or stabilization has taken place, erosion shall be minimized through the application of acceptable best management practices. Unacceptable clearing practices and erosion control measures are those that alter existing drainage patterns and/or cause property damage off site.
C. Floodplain Regulations And Diversions: The applicant is prohibited from engaging in any activity that will divert, retard or obstruct the flow of waters in a watercourse if it creates a hazard to life or property. (Ord. 04-2004, 6-29-2004)
