Re: Construction Site Erosion and Sediment Control Inspections
As many of you are already aware the state and federal regulations regarding erosion and
sediment control have recently become much more stringent. The City of oak Park Heights has
noticed over the past few construction seasons that issues related to erosion and sediment control
have become an issue with regard to city guidelines and ordinances. As a continuance of our
efforts to protect the city's valuable natural resources, the City of oak Park Heights has determined
aii effective next step will be the implementation of an erosion and sediment control inspection and
enforcement program.
Beginning August 9, 2005 our city will be conducting ongoing formal site inspections for erosion
and sediment control related issues and concerns. These inspections will be based on the plans
ai id specifications submitted previous to site land disturbance activities. These inspections will
also be based on the regulations outlined in the Construction Site Activity Permit issued by the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. These inspections will begin weekly and continue throughout
the construction season for 2005.
Each land owner / developer will receive correspondence as to any related issues in need of repair
c attention regarding erosion and sediment control. It will be then the responsibility of that
developer to obtain compliance with any appropriate building parties and/or subcontractors to
assure that compliance is achieved prior to the next site inspection the following week.
1 - he regulatory systems that will be monitored and enforced will be composed from the City of oak
P, 1- leights, the NPDES construction Site Permit, and any applicable developer agreements.
/,gain, we would like to emphasize that you will not be asked to accommodate any practice that is
n )t listed on your site plan, or that may not be a permit requirement. The only exception to this
rt_�Ie will be in the case of any relative environmental hazard that may exist due to erosion and
sediment control concerns.
1 iank you in advance for your cooperative effort in aiding the City of oak Park Heights in
interfacing development while effectively managing the city's valuable natural resources. Please
f :;1 to contact me immediately if you have any questions or concerns.
