Sec 117.384-410 <br />Revised June 5, 2014 to include 2013 Construction Stormwater Permit, 2013 MS4 Permit <br />requirements and 2012 LRRWMO Third Generation Plan [deletion;,, additions] <br />(8) Stabilizing all waterways and outlets. <br />(9) Protecting storm sewers from the entrance of sediment. <br />(10) What precautions will be taken to contain sediment when working in or crossing water <br />bodies. <br />(11) Restabilizing utility construction areas as soon as possible. <br />(12) Protecting paved roads from sediment and mud brought in from access routes. <br />(13) Disposing of temporary erosion and sediment control measures. <br />(14) How the temporary and permanent erosion and sediment control practices will be <br />maintained. <br />(15) How collected sediment and floating debris will be disposed of. <br />(Code 1978, § 9.27.09; Ord. No. 06-32, § 1, 11-28-2006) <br />Sec. 117-391. - Minimum stormwater pollution control measures and related <br />inspections. <br />These minimum control measures are required where bare soil is exposed. Due to the <br />diversity of individual construction sites, each site will be individually evaluated. Where <br />additional control measures are needed, they will be specified at the discretion of the city <br />engineer. The city will determine what action is necessary to prevent excessive erosion <br />from occurring on the site. <br />(1) All grading plans and building site surveys must be reviewed by the city for <br />effectiveness of erosion control measures in the context of the site topography and <br />drainage. <br />(2) Sediment control measures must be properly installed by the builder before <br />construction activity begins. Such structures may be adjusted during dry weather to <br />accommodate short-term activities, such as those that require the passage of very <br />large vehicles. As soon as this activity is finished or before rainfall, the erosion and <br />sediment control structures must be returned to the configuration specified by the city. <br />A sediment control inspection must then be scheduled, and passed before a footing <br />inspection will be done. <br />Diversion of channeled runoff around disturbed areas, if practical, or the protection of <br />the channel. <br />(3) <br />(4) Easements. If a stormwater management plan involves directing some or all of the <br />site's runoff, the applicant or his designated representative shall obtain from adjacent <br />property owners any necessary easements or other property interests concerning the <br />flowing of such water. <br />(5) The scheduling of the site's activities to lessen their impact on erosion and sediment <br />creation, so as to minimize the amount of exposed soil. <br />(6) Control runoff as follows (Either subsection (6)a and b and (6)a and c of this section): <br />a. Unless precluded by moderate or heavy snow cover (Mulching can take place if a light <br />snow cover is present.), stabilize all exposed inactive disturbed soil areas within 100 <br />feet of any water of the state, or with in 100 feet any conveyance (curb, gutter, storm <br />sewer inlet, drainage ditch, etc.) to a water of the state with sod, seed or weed free <br />mulch. This must be done, if the developer will not work the area for seven days on <br />slopes greater than three feet horizontal to one foot vertical (3:1), 14 days on slopes <br />ranging from 3:1 to 10:1 and 21 days for flatter slopes. <br />Ramsey, Minnesota, Code of Ordinances Page 4 <br />
