If at any stage of the grading of any development site, the code enforcement official determines by inspection that the nature of the site is such that further work authorized by an existing permit is likely to imperil any property, public way, stream, lake, wetland, or drainage structure, the code enforcement official may require as a condition of allowing the work to be done that such reasonable special precautions be taken as is considered advisable to avoid the likelihood of such peril.
(A) “Special Precautions” may include, but shall not be limited to, a more level exposed slope, construction of additional drainage facilities, berms, terracing, compaction, or cribbing, installation of plant materials for erosion control, and recommendations of a soil scientist or geotechnical engineer, which may outline requirements for further work.
(B) Where it appears that storm damage may occur due to incomplete grading at the site, work may be stopped and the permittee required to install temporary structures or take such other measures as may be required to protect adjoining property or the public safety.
