I herby agree to comply with the Appomattox County Erosion and Sediment Control Ordinance (Chapter 19.3). These requirements shall be based upon the conservation standards contained in the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality Erosion & Sediment Control Handbook, the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality Stormwater Management Handbook and the Virginia Stormwater BMP Clearinghouse. No land disturbing/construction activities on the property shall commence until a Land Disturbing Permit has been approved and issued. Failure to comply with such requirements within the specified time could result in enforcement actions for violation of the Appomattox County Erosion and Sediment Control Ordinance. Enforcement actions include, but not limited to, a Notice to Comply, Stop Work Order, revocation of the permit or other legal action.
At a minimum, I understand the following measures shall be addressed:
1. Silt fencing shall be properly installed along the low sides of all disturbed areas, adjacent to streams or water features, and around soil stockpiles.
2. Construction entrances shall consist of a coarse stone aggregate installed at any access point off existing public or private right of way (#57 stone or crusher run stones are not acceptable).
3. All denuded areas shall be stabilized with permanent seeding within 7 days of final grading. Denuded areas left bare for more than 14 days shall be temporarily seeded. All seeding shall be covered with straw mulch.
4. Inlet and outlet protection shall be provided for all culverts.
5. All erosion controls shall be installed prior to any land disturbing activity.
6. Appomattox county shall conduct periodic inspections to ensure all required measures and practices have been implemented and properly maintained.
I understand that if I disturb greater than 1 acre, or if constructing in a common plan of development/sale (any parcel of land created on or after July 1, 2004) VSMP permit coverage is required.
By signing this permit application, you acknowledge the terms and conditions of the permit and that the landowner is ultimately responsible for ensuring that all erosion and sediment control measures are properly installed and periodically maintained. I hereby grant permission to enter this property for the purposes of inspection and to my knowledge the information I have provided is correct and accurate.
