Site map/construction drawing(s) for the project, including a general location map. At a minimum, the site map should show the total site area; all improvements; areas of disturbance; areas that will not be disturbed; existing vegetation; on-site and adjacent off-site surface water(s); wetlands and drainage patterns that could be affected by the construction activity; existing and final slopes; locations of off-site material, waste, borrow or equipment storage areas; and location(s) of the stormwater discharges(s). The site map shall be at a scale no smaller than one inch equals 100 feet;
Land development activities meeting Condition A, B or C below shall also include water quantity and water quality controls (postconstruction stormwater runoff controls) as set forth below as applicable:
Condition C: stormwater runoff from land development activity disturbing at least one acre but less than five acres of land during the course of the project, exclusive of the construction of single-family residences.
Plan certification. The SWPPP shall be prepared by a licensed professional landscape architect or a licensed professional engineer and must be signed by the professional preparing the plan, who shall certify that the design of all stormwater management practices meets the requirements of this chapter.
The New York State Stormwater Management Design Manual (New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, most current version or its successor, hereinafter referred to as the "Design Manual").
New York Standards and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control (Empire State Chapter of the Soil and Water Conservation Society, 2004, most current version or its successor, hereinafter referred to as the "Erosion Control Manual").
Equivalence to technical standards. Where stormwater management practices are not in accordance with technical standards, the applicant or developer must demonstrate equivalence to the technical standards set forth in Subsection A above and the SWPPP shall be prepared by a licensed professional, as per § 73B-8C, above.
For land development activities as defined in this chapter and meeting Condition A, B or C of § 73B-8, the applicant shall have a qualified professional conduct site inspections and document the effectiveness of all erosion and sediment control practices every seven days and within 24 hours of any storm event producing 0.5 inch of precipitation or more. Inspection reports shall be maintained in a site logbook.
At the discretion of the SMO, the applicant, developer or their representative may be required to be on site at all times during the construction or grading activities that take place for the purposes of inspection and documentation of the effectiveness of all erosion and sediment control practices.
Maintenance easement(s). Prior to the issuance of any approval that has a stormwater management facility as one of the requirements, the applicant or developer must execute a maintenance easement agreement that shall be binding on all subsequent landowners served by the stormwater management facility. The easement shall provide for access to the facility at reasonable times for periodic inspection by the Village to ensure that the facility is maintained in proper working condition to meet design standards and any other provisions established by this chapter. The easement shall be recorded by the grantor in the office of the Suffolk County Clerk after approval by the counsel for the Village.
Maintenance agreements. The Village shall approve a formal maintenance agreement for stormwater management facilities binding on all subsequent landowners and recorded in the Office of the Suffolk County Clerk as a deed restriction on the property prior to final plan approval. The maintenance agreement shall be consistent with the terms and conditions of this chapter. The Village, in lieu of a maintenance agreement, at its sole discretion, may accept dedication of any existing or future stormwater management facility, provided such facility meets all the requirements of this chapter and includes adequate and perpetual access and sufficient area, by easement or otherwise, for inspection and regular maintenance.
A stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) consistent with the requirements of this chapter shall be required for preliminary subdivision plat approval. The SWPPP shall meet the performance and design criteria and standards of this chapter. The approved preliminary subdivision plat shall be consistent with the provisions of this chapter.
A stormwater pollution prevention plan consistent with the requirements of this chapter and with the terms of preliminary plan approval shall be required for final subdivision plat approval. The SWPPP shall meet the performance and design criteria and standards in this chapter. The approved final subdivision plat shall be consistent with the provisions of this chapter.
The Village 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 Village enforcement official at least 48 hours before any of the following as required by the Stormwater Management Officer:
Stormwater management practice inspections. The Village 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 licensed professional engineer.
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 Village the right to enter the property at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner for the purpose of inspection as specified in Subsection B.
Construction completion guarantee. In order to ensure the full and faithful completion of all land development activities related to compliance with all conditions set forth by the Village in its approval of the stormwater pollution prevention plan, the Board of Trustees may require the applicant or developer to provide, prior to construction, a performance bond, cash escrow, or irrevocable letter of credit from an appropriate financial or surety institution which guarantees satisfactory completion of the project and names the Village of Huntington Bay as the beneficiary. The security shall be in an amount to be determined by the Village based on submission of final design plans, with reference to actual construction and landscaping costs. The performance guarantee shall remain in force until the surety is released from liability by the Board of Trustees, provided that such period shall not be less than one year from the date of final acceptance or such other certification that the facilities have been constructed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications and that a one-year inspection has been conducted and the facilities have been found to be acceptable to the Village.
Maintenance guarantee. Where stormwater management and erosion and sediment control facilities are to be operated and maintained by the developer, the developer, prior to construction, may be required to provide the Village with a cash escrow, a maintenance bond or an irrevocable letter of credit from an approved financial institution or surety to ensure proper operation and maintenance of all stormwater management and erosion control facilities both during and after construction, and until the facilities are removed from operation. If the developer or landowner fails to properly operate and maintain stormwater management and erosion and sediment control facilities, the Village may draw upon the account to cover the costs of proper operation and maintenance, including engineering and inspection costs. To the extent that such escrow, bond or letter of credit, because of the draw, is no longer sufficient to ensure the proper operation and maintenance of the facility, the Village may require an additional escrow, bond or letter of credit.
The Village requires any person undertaking land development activities regulated by this chapter to reimburse the Village for costs of review of SWPPPs, inspections, or SMP maintenance performed by the Village or performed by a third party for the Village in accordance with such resolutions as may be adopted from time to time by the Board of Trustees.
