management practices published by state or designated area-wide planning agencies.
<br /> 2. Certificate of Completion: the certificate issued after the final inspection of the site has
<br /> been completed, temporary erosion control has been removed and the site has been
<br /> fully restored.
<br /> 3. City of Roseville Erosion Control Specifications: practices described in,but not limited
<br /> to, the following manuals:
<br /> • Minnesota Stormwater Manual
<br /> • Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's "Protecting Water Quality in Urban
<br /> Areas" handbook
<br /> • Ramsey County Erosion and Sediment Control Handbook
<br /> 4. Erosion: any process that wears away the surface of the land by the action of water,
<br /> wind, ice, or gravity. Erosion can be accelerated by the activities of man and nature.
<br /> 5. Erosion and sediment control plan: a document containing the requirements of Section
<br /> 803.04 D. that, when implemented, will prevent or minimize soil erosion on a parcel of
<br /> land and off-site sediment damages.
<br /> 6. Erosion and sediment control practice specifications and erosion and sediment control
<br /> practices: the management procedures, techniques, and methods to control soil erosion
<br /> and sedimentation as officially adopted by the City.
<br /> 7. Land disturbance activity: land change greater than 10,000 square feet, or land change
<br /> on a parcel of land located directly adjacent to a water resource or located within the
<br /> shoreland overlay district, that may result in soil erosion from water or wind and the
<br /> movement of sediments into or upon waters or lands of the city, including clearing,
<br /> grading, excavating, transporting and filling of land. Land disturbance activity does not
<br /> mean the following:
<br /> a. Minor land disturbance activities such as home gardens and an individual's home
<br /> landscaping, repairs, and maintenance work.
<br /> b. Tilling, planting, or harvesting or agricultural,horticultural, or silvicultural crops.
<br /> c. Installation of fence, sign, telephone, and electric poles and other kinds of posts or
<br /> poles.
<br /> d. Emergency work to protect life, limb, or property and emergency repairs.
<br /> However, if the land disturbance activity would have required an approved
<br /> erosion and sediment control plan except for the emergency, the land area
<br /> disturbed shall be shaped and stabilized in accordance with the requirement of
<br /> the local plan-approving authority or the city when applicable.
<br /> 8. Permittee: a person, entity, state agency, corporation, partnership, or political
<br /> subdivision thereof engaged in a land disturbance activity.
<br /> 9. Sediment: solid mineral or organic material that, in suspension, is being transported or
<br /> has been moved from its original site by air, water, gravity, or ice, and has been
<br /> deposited at another location.
<br /> 10. Sedimentation: the process or action of depositing sediment that is determined to have
<br /> been caused by erosion.
<br /> 11. Water Resource: any stream, channel, wetland, storm pond, or lake within the City.
<br /> D. Erosion and Sediment Control Plan:
<br /> 1. Required: Every Permittee for a building permit, a subdivision approval, or a permit to
<br /> allow land disturbance activities must submit an erosion and sediment control plan to the
<br /> City Engineer. No building permit, subdivision approval, or permit to allow land
<br /> disturbance activities shall be issued and no earth disturbing activity shall commence
<br /> until approval of the erosion and sediment control plan by the City.
