New devolopmeuts exceeding 10% imperviousness should include stormwatrr Controls designed <br />to replicate and maintain the hydrographic condition at the situ prior to the Change in landscape. <br />2. Use landscitpbng that consists of non- invasive native species and Low Impact Development (LID) <br />technology. Using native species instead of ornamentals ahould provide beuodt9 by reducing the <br />need for water, fertilizers, and pusbicides. Using LM technology in landscaping will not only <br />help maintidn the predevelopmeat hydrologic regime, but also enhance the aesthetic and habitat <br />value of the site. <br />3. Soditttcnt and erosion controls measures should be installed prior to any land clearing or <br />construction_ these measures should be routinely inspected and properly maintained. Excessive <br />silt and sediment loads can have numerous ditln ental erects on aquatic resoums inchtding <br />destruction of spawning habitat, suffocation of aggs. and clogging of gills of aquatic species. <br />Thank you for the opportvWty to continent on this project. If we can be of further aWatance, <br />please contact our office at (336) 449 -7625. <br />
