d) Landscaping shall be designed to minimize irrigation and runoff, promote <br />surface infiltration where appropriate, and minimize the use of fertilizers and <br />pesticides that can contribute to stormwater pollution; <br />1) Structures shall be designed to discourage the occurrence and entry of <br />pests into buildings, thus minimizing the need for pesticides; <br />2) Where feasible, landscaping shall be designed and operated to treat <br />stormwater runoff. In areas that provide detention of water, plants that <br />are tolerant of saturated soil conditions and prolonged exposure to <br />water shall be specified. Soil shall be amended as required; <br />3) Plant materials selected shall be appropriate to site specific <br />characteristics such as soil type, topography, climate, amount and <br />timing of sunlight, prevailing winds, rainfall, air movement, patterns of <br />land use, ecological consistency and plant interactions to ensure <br />successful establishment; and <br />4) Landscaping shall also comply with City of Pleasanton ordinances and <br />policies regarding water conservation. <br />e) Prior to grading permit issuance the project developer shall submit a copy of <br />the State Water Resources Control Board Notice of Intent (NOI) for <br />coverage under the State Construction Storm Water General Permit for <br />projects with clearing, grading and excavation exceeding the current <br />standards; and <br />f) Roof drains shall discharge and drain away from the buildings foundation to <br />an unpaved area wherever practicable. <br />stormwater Construction Requirements <br />71. The project development shall submit a stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan <br />(SWPPP) for review and approval by the City Engineer prior to issuance of <br />building or grading permits. Failure to comply with the approved construction <br />SWPPP may result in the issuance of correction notices, citations or stop work <br />order. The following construction Best Management Practices (BMPs), as well <br />as any other applicable measure, shall be included in the SWPPP and <br />implemented as approved by the City. <br />The project developer is responsible for implementing the following measures <br />during all construction phases of the project: <br />a) The project developer shall include erosion control/stormwater quality <br />measures on the final grading plan which shall specifically address <br />measures to prevent soil, dirt, and debris from entering the storm drain <br />system. Such measures may include, but are not limited to, hydroseeding, <br />13 <br />
