pumping must be treated by temporary sedimentation basins, geotextile filters, grit chambers, sand filters, up-flow chambers, hydro-cyclones, swirl concentrators or other appropriate controls as appropriate. Water may not be discharged in a manner that causes erosion or flooding of the site or receiving channels or a wetland. P.) All storm drain inlets must be protected during construction until control measures are in place with either silt fence or an equivalent barrier that meets accepted design criteria, standards and specifications contained in the latest version of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's publication, "Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas." Q.) Catch basins. All newly installed and rehabilitated catch basins must be provided with a sump area for collecting coarse-grained material. Such basins must be cleaned when they are half filled with material. R.) Roof drain leaders. All newly constructed and reconstructed buildings must route roof drain leaders to pervious areas (not natural wetlands) where the runoff can infiltrate. The flow rate of water exiting the leaders shall be controlled so that no erosion occurs in the pervious areas. S.) Follow-up inspections must be performed by the city on a regular basis to ensure that erosion and sediment control measures are properly installed and maintained. In all cases the inspectors will attempt to work with the builder or developer to maintain proper erosion and sediment control at all sites. In cases where cooperation is withheld, construction stop orders may be issued by the city, until erosion and sediment control measures meet Specifications. A second erosion and sediment controUgrading inspection must then be scheduled and passed before the final inspection will be done. T.) Inspection and maintenance. All storm water pollution control management facilities must be designed to minimize the need of maintenance, to provide easy vehicle and personnel access for maintenance purposes and be structurally sound. These facilities must have a plan of operation and maintenance that ensures continued effective removal of the pollutants carried in storm water runoff. The city or its designated representative shall inspect all storm water management facilities during construction, during the first year of operation and at least once every five (5) years thereafter. The city will keep all inspection records on file for a period of six (6) years. It shall be the responsibility of the applicant to obtain any necessary easements or other property interests to allow access to the storm water management facilities for inspection and maintenance purpose. 6.5 Permanent Storm Water Pollution Controls. A.) The applicant shall install or construct, or pay the city fees for all storm water management facilities necessary to manage increased runoff, so that the two (2) year, ten (10) year, and one hundred (100) year storm peak discharge rates existing before the proposed development must not be increased. Also accelerated channel erosion must not occur as a result of the proposed land disturbing or development activity. An applicant may 12
