Sec. 21-136. Completion of rubble fill constructionLinkCopy Citation
(a)
When the licensee states in writing to the Director of the Department of Permitting, Inspections, and Enforcement that he has completed the construction of the rubble fill, the following steps and measures shall be taken prior to a release from his obligations:
(1)
An inspection of the entire site shall be made by designated representatives of the Health Officer, Fire Marshal and Department of Permitting, Inspections, and Enforcement before the earthmoving equipment is removed from the site.
(2)
The licensee shall leave a satisfactory, permanent organic growing cover, and demonstrate that all the Soil Conservation District specifications and standards have been complied with, and necessary measures taken for the permanent protection of the site against erosion.
(3)
Any necessary corrective work shall be performed before the rubble fill project is accepted as completed.
(4)
When a rubble fill is accepted as completed, there shall be no further rubble fill work at the site. The licensee shall close all access roads locked with gates.
(5)
Arrangements shall be made for the repair of all cracked, eroded and uneven areas, and growing cover re-established in the final cover during the year following completion of the fill.
(b)
At the completion of fill operations, if the licensee shall perform all of his obligations under the requirements of the completion maintenance bond and as otherwise prescribed, the full amount of the bond will be returned to him twelve (12) months after completion of the fill, or a portion thereof accepted as completed, as applicable. If the licensee fails to fulfill his obligations, the County may use these funds to make all necessary maintenance repairs and do other work as necessary either by force account with its own personnel and equipment or by contract with an outside party, as the County deems most feasible. In such case the County will refund to the licensee any remaining balance after deducting all direct costs plus ten percent (10%) for overhead costs.
(c)
A plat of the completed rubble fill or such portions thereof as may be accepted as completed shall be filed with the Department of Permitting, Inspections, and Enforcement and the Department of Health.
