Notes:

1    NPDES erosion control inspection fees are in addition to development inspection fees in Table 6.110A.030.

2    The inspection permit year for erosion control begins on the date of the preconstruction conference. If no preconstruction conference is held, the permit year begins when fees are paid.

3    The disturbed area fee calculation adds the fee component from each applicable area range. The fee formula calculates the area in acres using two (2) significant figures after the decimal point. For example, the fee for a project with two hundred (200) acres of disturbed area is seventeen thousand three hundred forty-four dollars ($17,344) ($17,344 = 350 + 94 + 1,000 + 1,400 + 9,500 + 5,000).

4    Disturbed area is defined in Section 40.386.010.

5    Erosion control inspections are initially valid for one (1) year. Extensions at a reduced rate are allowed if fees are paid before the expiration date. Projects with expired annual erosion control inspection permits shall pay the full fee and may be subject to code enforcement action.
