No certificate of occupancy for any new building will be issued unless the applicant for said certificate shall have obtained a certification of completion indicating compliance with all soil erosion and sedimentation control plans and specifications and completion of all permanent soil erosion control measures.
(Prior Code, § 16-5) (Ord. 1311, passed 3-16-2009)
(A) Any earth changes shall be conducted in such a manner which will effectively reduce accelerated soil erosion and resulting sedimentation.
(B) All persons engaged in earth changes shall design, implement and maintain acceptable soil erosion and sedimentation and control measures, in conformance with part 91 (M.C.L.A. §§ 324.9101 et seq.), the rules and regulations which may have been duly adopted for the purpose of reducing accelerated soil erosion and off-site sedimentation.
(C) All earth changes shall be designed, constructed and completed in such a manner which shall limit the exposed area of any disturbed land for the shortest possible period of time.
(D) Sediment caused by accelerated soil erosion shall be removed from runoff water before it leaves the site of the earth change.
(E) Any temporary or permanent facility designed and constructed for the conveyance of water around, through or from the earth change area shall be designed to limit the water flow to a non-erosive velocity.
(F) Temporary soil erosion and sedimentation control measures shall be installed before or upon commencement of the earth change activity and the measures shall be maintained on a daily basis. Temporary soil erosion control measures shall be removed after earth change areas are stabilized and permanent soil erosion control measures are installed. The area shall be stabilized with permanent soil erosion control measures under approved standards and specifications as prescribed by R 323.1710.
(G) Permanent soil erosion control measures for all slopes, channels, ditches or any disturbed land area shall be completed within five calendar days after final grading or the final earth change has been completed. When it is not possible to permanently stabilize a disturbed area after an earth change has been completed or where significant earth change activity ceases, temporary soil erosion control measures shall be maintained until permanent soil erosion control measures are implemented and the area is stabilized.
(Prior Code, § 16-6) (Ord. 1311, passed 3-16-2009)
