Leanna Stefaniak VBWD Permit #2023-31: Lake Elmo Townhomes 8 December 19, 2023 Page 2 6. The permit holder shall contact the VBWD Wetland Biologist (Karen Wold, 952-832-2707) prior to the commencement of any construction to schedule a field visit to determine if any temporary or permanent wetland impacts will occur. If wetland impacts will occur, the owner shall submit the required documents and work with the VBWD to prepare and follow restoration plans. 7. The required surety shall be submitted prior to construction. 8. The applicant must obtain any necessary approvals from other persons and/or entities with ownership interests in the property affected by the proposed project. It is the applicant’s burden to obtain any and all necessary permissions or ownership rights to property not owned by the applicant, including prescriptive easements. The applicant must obtain any necessary permits. 9. This permit is not transferable. 10. The applicant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the VBWD for any and all future liability, causes of action, or claims relating to or arising out of the District’s grant of this permit. Such claims include, but are not limited to, onsite flooding and flooding to neighboring properties. 11. This permit is subject to obtaining all other permits required by governmental agencies having jurisdiction (including an NPDES permit). 12. The VBWD Engineer and Inspector shall be notified at least 3 days prior to commencement of work. 13. Erosion controls shall be installed prior to the commencement of grading operations and must be maintained throughout the construction period until turf is established. Additional erosion controls may be required, as directed by the VBWD Inspector or VBWD Engineer. 14. All disturbed areas shall be vegetated within 7 days of final grading. 15. The applicant is responsible for removal of all temporary erosion-control measures, including silt fence, upon establishment of permanent vegetation at the project site, as determined by the VBWD Engineer and/or Inspector. 16. To prevent soil compaction, the proposed infiltration areas shall be staked off and marked during construction to prevent heavy equipment and traffic from traveling over them. If infiltration facilities are in place during construction activities, sediment and runoff shall be kept away from the facility using practices such as diversion berms and vegetation around the facility’s perimeter. Infiltration facilities shall not be excavated to final grade until the contributing drainage area has been constructed and fully stabilized. The final excavation phase shall remove all accumulated sediment and be done by light, tracked equipment to avoid compaction of the basin floor. To provide a well-aerated, highly porous surface, the soils of the basin floor shall be loosened to a depth of at least 5 feet to a maximum compaction of 85% standard proctor density prior to planting. The upper 10 inches of soil shall be tilled prior to planting.
