(2) Every application for development or site alteration shall demonstrate that planning, design and construction practices that protect water resources will be used, including, (a)  keeping the removal of vegetation, grading and soil compaction to a minimum; (b)  keeping all sediment that is eroded during construction within the site; (c)  seeding or sodding exposed soils as soon as possible after construction; and (d)  keeping chemical applications to suppress dust and control pests and vegetation to a minimum.  O. Reg. 140/02, s. 45 (2). (3) In considering an application for development or site alteration, the municipality shall seek to reduce areas with impervious surfaces and increase areas retained in a natural undisturbed state, in order to minimize stormwater volumes and contaminant loads and increase capacity to adapt to climate change.  O. Reg. 140/02, s. 45 (3); O. Reg. 141/17, s. 34 (2). (4) Municipal development standards shall incorporate planning, design and construction practices that will, (a)  reduce the portions of lots and sites that have impervious surfaces; and (b)  provide the flexibility to use alternative stormwater management techniques such as directing roof discharge to rear yard ponding areas and using grassed swales.  O. Reg. 140/02, s. 45 (4). (5) Subsections (2), (3) and (4) do not apply to applications for mineral aggregate operations.  O. Reg. 140/02, s. 45 (5).
