§ 46A-10. Construction inspection.

A. 

Erosion and sediment control inspection.

(1) 

The Stormwater Management Officer may require such inspections as necessary to determine compliance with this chapter and may either approve that portion of the work completed or notify the applicant wherein the work fails to comply with the requirements of this chapter and the stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) as approved. To obtain inspections, the applicant shall notify the Stormwater Management Officer at least 48 hours before commencing any of the following activities:

(a) 

Start of construction;

(b) 

Installation of sediment and erosion control measures;

(c) 

Completion of site clearing;

(d) 

Completion of rough grading;

(e) 

Completion of final grading;

(f) 

Close of the construction season;

(g) 

Completion of final landscaping;

(h) 

Successful establishment of landscaping in public areas.

(2) 

If any violations are found, the applicant and developer shall receive written notice of the nature of the violation and the required corrective actions. No further work shall be conducted, except for site stabilization, until any violations are corrected and all work previously completed has received approval by the Stormwater Management Officer.

B. 

Stormwater management practice inspections. The Stormwater Management Officer is responsible for conducting inspections of stormwater management practices (SMPs). All applicants are required to submit "as built" plans for any stormwater management practices located on-site after final construction is completed. The plan must show the final design specifications for all stormwater management facilities and must be certified by a professional engineer.

C. 

Inspection of stormwater facilities after project completion. Inspection programs shall be established on any reasonable basis, including, but not limited to: routine inspections; random inspections; inspections based upon complaints or other notice of possible violations; inspection of drainage basins or areas identified as higher than typical sources of sediment or other contaminants or pollutants; inspections of businesses or industries of a type associated with higher than usual discharges of contaminants or pollutants or with discharges of a type which are more likely than the typical discharge to cause violations of state or federal water or sediment quality standards or the SPDES stormwater permit; and joint inspections with other agencies inspecting under environmental or safety laws. Inspections may include, but are not limited to: reviewing maintenance and repair records; sampling discharges, surface water, groundwater, and material or water in drainage control facilities; and evaluating the condition of drainage control facilities and other stormwater management practices.

D. 

Submission of reports. The Stormwater Management Officer may require monitoring and reporting from entities subject to this chapter as are necessary to determine compliance with this chapter.

E. 

Right-of-entry for inspection. When any new stormwater management facility is installed on private property or when any new connection is made between private property and the public stormwater system, the landowner shall grant to the Stormwater Management Officer the right to enter the property at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner for the purpose of inspection as specified in Subsection C.
