Site DesignGuidelines
1.0
Every Site Alteration
shall be performed in accordance with the following
objectives:
-
prevention or limiting
of off-site
impacts of soil erosion and sedimentation;
and
-
compliance
with federal, provincial.
NPCA. Region and City standards.
2.0
The site control measures outlined
in these guidelines shall be deemed to be a condition or
every permit unless waived in writing
by the Director.
3.0
Site Dewatering
3.1
Dewatering
operations may be conducted provided that water is not permitted to discharge
directly
into the receiving bodies of water or streams; and
3.2
Water pumped from the lot shall be treated by structural devices such as sediment control
pond, temporary
sedimentation
pond. grit chambers. sand filters.
up-flow
chambers. swirl
concentrators
or other appropriate controls.
If water is demonstrated to have no particles
greater than forty
(40)
microns
in size. then dewatering
operations
may be conducted
provided water is not permitted
to discharge directly
into the receiving
bodies of water or
streams.
4.0
Drain Inlet Protection
All
rear lot storm drain inlets shall be protected with filter fabric or equivalent
barriers so
as not to admit sediment-laden
runoff
from the disturbed areas and the control
measures
must meet the standards and specifications
accepted by the Director.
5.0
Site Erosion and SedimentControl Practices
The
Site Alteration
Plan shall
include
the following
applicable
types of controls.
as
required by the City:
5.1
Stabilization
practices for soil erosion and sediment control are commonly
of three types:
5.1.1
vegetative
stabilization
practices
such as temporary
seeding,
sod stabilization.
permanent seeding and plantation,
maintenance of buffer zone, and preservation of
natural vegetation;
5.1.2
non-vegetative
stabilization
practices such as mulching,
gee-textiles.
soil-retaining
measures and stream bank stabilization;
and
5.1.3
in-stream
stabilization
practices such as temporary
stream crossings, cofferdams.
dry flumes, sediment curtains, by-passes or full diversions. and dewatering.
5.2
Runoff velocity
dissipation
measures, which slow down the runoff flowing
across the site
by using measures such as check dams and surface roughening, and gradient terraces;
5.3
Storrnwater
runoff controls, which prevent runoff from flowing
across disturbing
areas by
using measures such as earth dikes. drainage swales, and drains;
5.4
Structural
practices such as temporary
Sediment Control
Pond or ultimate
SWM
ponds.
which hold storm water runoff
in a controlled
fashion and remove sediments in the storage
device; and
5.5
In the event that a Sediment Control
Pond cannot be constructed to service the entire site
(i.e., capture all runoff
from
the site), the reasons must be documented
and alternative
control
measures must be implemented.
Other sediment control
measures. which remove
sediments from
on-site
runoff
before it leaves site, include
silt fences. sediment traps.
storm drain inlet protection.
filter fabrics, and straw bale barriers.

Pond. or equivalent
control
measures (e.g.. ultimate
SWM

if
applicable)
must be provided.
6.2
Sediment
Control
Pond Design Criteria
shall include
the following.
as required by the
City:
6.2.1
the Sediment Control
Pond shall be constructed
prior
to topsoil
stripping
or fill
placement;
6.2.2
the Sediment Control
Pond and conveyance channels should be located in such ;\
way that the runoff will
be captured and conveyed from the entire disturbed area In
the pond;
6.2.3
the Sediment
Control
Pond volume
should consist of both permanent
pool and
active storage component.
The permanent pool component
should be sized for a
minimum
125 1lY)/haor the volume required equivalent to an 'Enhanced Protection'
water quality
control under the latest Ministry
of Environment
SWM Planning and
Design
manual.
whichever
is greater.
The
active
storage volume
component
should be sized for a minimum
of 125 m'zha of runoff or the latest Ministry
of the
Environment.
NPCA
requirements.
whichever
is greater
and
released over
a
minimum
24-hour period;
6.2.4
the basin to width
ratio should be three (3) or greater but less than six (6) (ideally
4: I).
Interior
sides slopes should be 3: I at a maximum
and exterior slopes should
be a maximum
2: I.
Basin depth should be a minimum
of 1.0 metres to avoid rc-
suspension of previously
settled out sediment and less than 2.5 metres;
6.2.5
other
storm
water
management
control
functions
required
for
the site shall be
implemented
by the owner as required in other permit approvals (c.g.. flood and
erosion controls);
6.2.6
to maintain
sufficient
permanent pool volume during the land disturbance
period.
Site Alteration
Plan should
provide
the maintenance
schedule.
The Sediment
Control
Pond should be cleaned once the designed permanent pool volume
has
been reduced by 50%.
To verify
sediment accumulation,
the Sediment Control
Pond should be measured at least once per year since the start of land disturbance;
and
6.2.7
a qualified
inspector or inspection
team should be assigned by the owner of the
property
to
oversee
ESC
practices
on
the
site
and
perform
the
necessary
assessments through
the duration
of the construction
and stabilization
period.
Records of all monitoring.
inspections. and repair works should be documented to
effectively
identify
and
track
areas
of
susceptibility
and
plan
for
future
maintenance
works.
as well
as, to share or report this information
to other Sill'
personnel.
The inspection
forms/reports
should be posted and presented for any
agency staff visiting
the site as evidence that due diligence
was afforded
to the
implementation
and maintenance
of the approved
erosion
and sediment control
plan.
