Open wet pits shall be fenced with a forty-two (42") inch minimum, four (4) strand barbed wire fence or the equivalent (e.g., welded square "hog" fencing), prior to the commencement of excavation, during excavation, and during reclamation. Fencing may enclose the property of which mining is a part, the mining site, or both. In addition, signs shall be installed at the project site boundaries and access road, indicating that the excavation area is restricted. Additional security (e.g., gates with protected locks and wing fences to prevent drive-arounds) shall be provided at all vehicular routes. The fencing and gates shall be maintained throughout the mining and reclamation period after completion of reclamation. A requirement shall be recorded on the deed of the property which requires the landowner to maintain fences. (§ 1, Ord. 1191, eff. September 5, 1996; as amended by Ord. 1518, eff. February 13, 2020)
