<br />B. Application A completed application fur activities regulated by this permit. <br />C. Best Management Pmctices (BMPs). Erosion ani sediment control and water quality <br />lD8DIll!ement pmctil:es that are the most effective ani practicable means of controlling, <br />preventing, ani minimizing degradation of surface water, including construction-phasing, <br />mm;mizlng the length of time soil areas are """"sed, probibitions, and other management <br />practices published by state or designated area wide planning agencies. <br /> <br />Examples ofBMPs can be found in Protectin2 Water O"Alitv in Urban Areas.

TIe construction, installstion or alleration of any structure; the extnwtion. <br />filling, clearing or olber aIIeration of land or ""lletstion; the change of cross section of <br />any water body of watercourse; the subdivision ofland per ordinan:e. <br />E. Discbsrge. TIe conveyance, channeling, runoft; or drainage, of storm water, including <br />snow melt, from a construction site. <br />F. EM'gy Dissipation TIe methods employed at pipe out1ets to prevent erosion. Examples <br />include, but are rot limited to; aprons, riprap, splash pads, ani gabions \\IDch are <br />designed to prevent erosion <br />G. Erosion TIe wearing away of soil by minfall, sur100e water runoff, wiM, or ice <br />mowment. <br />H. Erosion ControL Methods employed to prevent erosion Examples include soil <br />stabilization pmctices, horizontal slope grading, temporary or permanent cover, and <br />construction phasing. <br />I. El<pOsed Soil Areas. All areas of the construction site \\bere the perennial vegetation <br />(including trees, shrubs, and brush) has been removed. This includes topsoil stockpile <br />areas, bonow areas and disposal areas within the construction site. <br />1. Final StabiJization All soil disturbing activities at the site have been completed, and that <br />a uniform perennial vegetative cover with a density of70 percent (70%) of the cover fur <br />unpaved areas and areas rot covered by permanent structures has been established or <br />equivalent permanent stabilization measures have been employed. Examples of <br />vegetative cover practices can be found in SUDD1emental Snecifications to the 1988 <br />RtRnliMrl Specifi~.SItinn<; for Construction (Minnesota Department of Transportation. <br />1991). <br />K. Impervious SUrfiIce. A constructed bsrd sur100e the either proveds or retards the entry of <br />water into the soil ani causes water to nm off the surface in greater qwmlilies and at an <br />increased rate of t/ow than prior to development. Examples include rooftops, sidewalks, <br />patios, driveways, parking lots, storage areas, ani concrete, aspbah, or gravel roads. <br />L. Owner. TIe person or part possessing the tille of the land on \Wrieb the construction <br />activities will occur; or if the construction activity is for a Jesse holder, the party or <br />individual identified as the lease bolder, or the contracting government agency <br />responsible for the construction activity. <br />M Paved Surface. A constructed bard" surfuce .made of asphalt, concrete or olber pavement <br />material Examples include, but are not Jimited to, roads, sidewalks, driveways and <br />parking lots. <br /> <br />[~IomOOlb----1 <br />~_..___._____._. ___J <br /> <br />Page 40f9 <br />
