'� <br /> special attention,-and appaopaiate mitigative meaBuAeb are to be taken l <br /> Ito ptoteat those aAead. <br /> b. Limit Exposed Area - all land-disturbing activities are to be planned ' <br /> and conducted to minimize the size of the area to be exposed at any <br /> one time. ' <br /> c. Limit Time of Exposure - all land-disturbing activities are to be <br /> planned and conducted to-limit exposure to the shortest feasible <br /> time. <br /> d. Control Surface Water - surface water runoff originating upgrade of KI <br /> exposed areas should be controlled to reduce erosion and sediment loss <br /> during the period of exposure. <br /> e, Control Sedimentation - all land-disturbing activities are to be <br /> iplanned and conducted so as to prevent off-site sedimentation damage. i <br /> f. Mange Storm Water- Runoff - when the increase in the peak rates.and <br /> velocity of storm water resulting from a land-disturbing activity is <br /> sufficient to cause accelerated erosion of the receiving watercourse, <br /> l plans are to include measures to control the velocity and-rate of <br /> release at the point of discharge so as to minimize accelerated erosion f <br /> of the site and increase sedimentation of the stream. <br /> Amended Effective (December 6, 1978 and April 8, 1980) ' <br /> Section 8 Standards-for Land_Disturbing ActivitX <br /> No land-disturbing activity subject to the control of this ordinance shall I <br /> be undertaken except in accordance with the following standards: i <br /> a. Buffer Zone - no land-disturbing activity shall be permitted in <br /> proximity to a lake or natural watercourse unless a buffer zone <br /> is provided along the margin of the watercourse of sufficient <br /> width to confine visible siltation within the twenty-five percent <br /> (25Z) of the buffer zone nearer the land-disturbing activity, <br /> provided, that this subsection (a) shall not apply to a <br /> i <br /> 7 <br />
