§ 15.28.100. Conditions.  


Latest version.
  • In granting any clearing and grading permit, the City Engineer may attach conditions reasonably necessary to prevent erosion and sedimentation. Such conditions may include, but are not limited to, installing walls, swales, drains, retention facilities, or other structures, planting appropriate vegetation, installing erosion and sediment control measures or devices, furnishing necessary letters of permission and/or easements, and specifying method of performing the work. Such items must be identified on the approved grading, erosion, and sediment control or other required plans. In addition, the following shall be conditions of all permits:

    A.

    A construction stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) is required in conjunction with a clearing and grading permit for sites that result in 2,000 square feet or more of new plus replaced hard surface area, or which disturb 7,000 square feet or more of land. The SWPPP shall meet all requirements as set forth in Chapter 6 of the current edition of the City of Port Angeles' Urban Services Standards and Guidelines and the Department of Ecology's SWMMWW (2014), including any amendments or revisions thereto. A small project SWPPP is required for sites that result in 2,000 square feet or more, but less than 5,000 square feet, of new plus replaced hard surface area and less than one acre of land disturbance. A large project SWPPP is required for sites that result in 5,000 square feet or more of new plus replaced hard surface area or one acre of greater of land disturbance.

    B.

    Notify the City at least 48 hours before commencing any land disturbing activity.

    C.

    Notify the City of completion of any control measures within 48 hours after their completion.

    D.

    Obtain written permission from the City Engineer prior to modification of any approved plans.

    E.

    Install all control measures as identified in the approved plans.

    F.

    Maintain all road drainage systems, stormwater drainage systems, LID BMPs, erosion control measures, and other facilities identified in the plans.

    G.

    Repair siltation or erosion damage to adjoining surfaces and drainage ways resulting from land disturbing activities.

    H.

    Inspect, maintain, install, modify, and/or repair the erosion control BMPs as needed to assure the continued performance of their intended function. Inspections on projects that disturb one or more acres shall be conducted by a certified erosion and sediment control lead (CESCL) and a written record of said inspections shall be kept on-site at all times. Project site disturbing less than one acre may have a CESCL or a person without CESCL certification conduct inspections. The CESCL or inspector shall be identified in writing to the City and shall be present on-site or on-call at all times.

    I.

    Allow the City to enter the site for the purpose of inspecting compliance with the plans or for performing any work necessary to bring the site into compliance with the plans.

    J.

    Keep an up-to-date, approved copy of the plans on the site.

    K.

    Ensure that all workmanship and materials are in accordance with City standards and the most recent edition of the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge, and Municipal Construction.
