DC-12-0006: Text Amendments relating to Erosion and Sediment Control and Stormwater Quality and Management

Background

Proposed Boulder County Land Use Code text amendments to Article 3-100 (“Approvals and Permits Necessary Prior to Development”), Article 7-903 (“Erosion and Sediment Control”), Article 7-904 (“Stormwater Quality and Management in Urbanized Areas”) and Article 18 (“Definitions”). The proposed changes would clarify and expand the County’s regulation of stormwater quality management and would bring these regulations into consistency with Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment regulations. The portions of the proposed amendments administering the County’s Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) General Permit issued by the Colorado Water Quality Control Division as part of the state’s water quality discharge permit system, are also proposed to be adopted by the Board of County Commissioners as a County ordinance (Ordinance 2012-5) under the authority of C.R.S. Section 30-15-401(11).
