(1) Construction vehicles shall avoid water resources, wetlands, riparian areas, and their setbacks. If construction vehicles must cross these areas during construction, an approved temporary crossing shall be con- structed. Streams, including intermittent streams with a defined bed and banks, shall be restabilized immediately after in- channel work is com- pleted, interrupted, or stopped. Erodible materials will not be used in making stream crossings. (2) No soil, rock, debris, or any other material shall be dumped or placed into a water resource or into such proximity that it may slough, slip, or erode into a water resource unless such dumping or placing is author- ized by the approving authority and, when applicable, the US Army Corps Of Engineers and Ohio EPA, for such purposes as, but not Ihn- ited to, constructing bridges, culverts, and erosion or sediment control structures. (3) If construction activities disturb areas adjacent to streams, structural practices shall be designed and implemented on site to protect the adja- cent streams from the impacts of sediment runoff. (4) No temporary or permanent sediment controls will be constructed in a stream channel. (5) Streams and wetland setbacks required by the City will be implement- ed. As a minimum setback of 25 feet, as measured from the ordinary high water mark of the surface water, will be maintained in its natural state as a permanent buffer. (o) Construction Entrance: (1) Measures shall be taken to prevent soil transport onto public roads, or surfaces where runoff is not checked by sediment controls. (2) Stone with geotextile construction entrance(s) shall be implemented as required by the city engineer and the Ohio EPA. These will be planned and installed according to the requirements in the most recent edition of the Ohio Rainwater and Land Development manual. (3) Where soil is transported onto a public road surface, the roads shall be cleaned thoroughly at the end of each day, or more frequently, in order to ensure public safety. Soil shall be removed from paved surfaces by shoveling or sweeping. Street washing shall be allowed only after shoveling or sweeping has removed most of the sediment and street sewer inlet protection is properly installed unless end of sewer sedi- ment ponds exist and are properly functioning. (4) Erodible material ramps in streets will not be used to enable equipment to cross curbs. Non - erosive materials (e.g., wood and stone) can be used. (p) Unstable Soils: (1) Unstable soils will be as determined by the local county Soil Survey or by a detailed soils report. The city engineer may require detailed soil reports when deemed necessary. 45
