have the meanings ascribed to them in this section, except where the context clearly
<br />indicates a different meaning:
<br />1. Best Management Practice (BMP): Erosion and sediment control and water quality
<br />management practices that are the most effective and practicable means of
<br />controlling, preventing, and minimizing the degradation of surface water, including
<br />construction -phasing, minimizing the length of time soil areas are exposed,
<br />prohibitions, and other management practices published by state or designated
<br />area -wide planning agencies.
<br />2. Certificate of Completion: the certificate issued after the final inspection of the site
<br />has been completed, temporary erosion control has been removed and the site has
<br />been fully restored.
<br />3. City of Roseville Erosion Control Specifications: practices described in, but not
<br />limited 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
<br />nature.
<br />5. Erosion and sediment control plan: a document containing the requirements of
<br />Section 803.04 D that, when implemented, will prevent or minimize soil erosion on
<br />a parcel of land and off-site sediment damages.
<br />6. Erosion and sediment control practice specifications and erosion and sediment
<br />control practices: the management procedures, techniques, and methods to control
<br />soil erosion and sedimentation as officially adopted by the City.
<br />Land disturbance activity: land change greater than 5,000 square feet, placement
<br />or grading of 50 cubic vards of earthen materials, or land change on a parcel of
<br />land located directly adjacent to a water resource or located
<br />within the shoreland overlay district, that may result in soil erosion from water or
<br />wind and the movement of sediments into or upon waters or lands of the city,
<br />including clearing, grading, excavating, transporting and filling of land. Land
<br />disturbance activity does not mean the following:
<br />a. Minor land disturbance activities such as home gardens and an individual's
<br />home landscaping, repairs, and maintenance work.
<br />b. Tilling, planting, or harvesting or agricultural, horticultural, or silvicultural
<br />crops.
<br />c. Installation of fence, sign, telephone, and electric poles and other kinds of
<br />posts or 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
<br />of the local plan -approving authority or the city when applicable.
<br />8-7. Permittee: a person, entity, state agency, corporation, partnership, or political
<br />subdivision thereof engaged in a land disturbance activity.
<br />9L-8. Sediment: solid mineral or organic material that, in suspension, is being
<br />transported or has been moved from its original site by air, water, gravity, or ice,
<br />and has been deposited at another location.
<br />44-9. Sedimentation: the process or action of depositing sediment that is determined to
