MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR SANITARY SEWER EXTENSION PERMITS GENERAL CONDITIONS: 1) Material, labor and equipment for temporary erosion control measures and the acceptable maintenance thereof shall be provided during the life of the project, to effectively prevent water pollution through the use of berms, dikes, dams, sediment basins, fiber mats, netting, gravel, mulches, grasses, slope drains, and other erosion control devices or methods. Surface cover materials shall be anchored to reasonably prevent their entering waters of the State by erosion or rising water levels.. 2) Temporary pollution control measures shall be included for all construction activity associated with the project where such work is necessary, for example borrow pit operations, haul roads, equipment storage, and plant or waste disposal sites: 3) The temporary pollution control provisions contained herein shall be coordinated with any permanent erosion features to the extent practical to assure economical, effective, and continuous erosion control throughout the construction and post-construction period. 4) The surface area of erodible earth material exposed by clearing and grubbing, excavation, borrow and fill operations shall be minimized and immediate permanent or temporary control measures shall be taken to prevent contamination of adjacent streams and other water courses, lakes, ponds, and areas of water impoundment. Cut slopes shall be stabilized by methods such as seeding and mulching as the excavation proceeds to the extent considered practicable. Slopes shall be graded properly to minimize erosion. 5) The Applicant will be required to incorporate all permanent erosion control features into the project at the earliest practicable time. Provisions should be made for continual checking and maintenance of all control measures, particularly during periods of rainfall, to ensure maximum effectiveness. Temporary pollution control measures will be used to correct conditions that. develop during construction that were not foreseen during the design state; that are needed temporarily to control erosion that develops during normal construction practices, but are not associated with the permanent control features on the project. 6) The Applicant will control the area of excavation, borrow and embankment operations commensurate with his progress with finish grading, mulching, seeding, and other such permanent erosion control measures. Should seasonal limitations make such coordination unrealistic, temporary erosion control measures shall be taken to the extent feasible. 7) Oil and other liquid substances capable of polluting water of the State will be stored in accordance with the requirements af MPCA Miscellaneous Water Quality Rules Chapter 7100.0010 - 7100.0090 (formerly Minnesota Code of Agency Rules 6 MCAR 4.8004) (formerly WPC-4).
