h. HEALTH CONSIDERATIONS: This quarry excavation shall: <br /> (1) Not cause health or sanitary hazards and shall not create conditions which will cause the <br /> breeding or increase of mosquitoes, rodents, or other pests. <br /> (2) Provide an approved potable water supply for all employees. <br /> (3) Provide approved toilets for all employees (chemical toilets are acceptable). <br /> (4) Provide hand washing facilities on or near the approved toilets. (Development Title Section 9- <br /> 1415.3[iD <br /> i. SETBACKS: No excavation shall take place within twenty-five (25) feet of any property line or right- <br /> of-way (nor within the allowed slopes adjacent to said twenty-five (25) foot setback), unless the <br /> elevation prior to excavation is more than that of the abutting property, in which case the elevation <br /> within said twenty-five (25) foot setback shall at no time be less than that of the abutting property, at <br /> the property line. (Development Title Section 9-1415.3b]) <br /> (1) Temporary Cut Slooes at Setback Lines. Temporary cut slopes (i.e., for limited periods of time, <br /> slopes that am in the process of extraction prior to being backfilled) at setback lines shall not <br /> exceed one (1) foot horizontal to one (1) foot vertical, except that temporary cut slopes at <br /> setback lines to a maximum of one half (1/2) of a foot horizontal to one (1) foot vertical may be <br /> maintained if site-specific geologic and engineering analysis demonstrate through a slope <br /> stability analysis that the proposed temporary cut slopes will have a minimum slope stability <br /> factor of safety as required in Section 9-1415.3(k)(4). However, in the event that there are <br /> existing structures on the adjacent property (or the immediate potential for structures on the <br /> adjacent property), the excavation shall at no time be closer to the property line than a line <br /> projected on a slope of one (1)to one (1) from the property line to the toe of slope. <br /> (2) Final Slopes. Final cut and/or fill slopes shall not exceed two (2) feet horizontal to one (1) foot <br /> vertical. <br /> (3) Fill Slopes. Fill slopes shall be constructed consistent with recommendations from a qualified <br /> civil/geotechnical engineer based upon site-specific geologic conditions, <br /> I. FENCING: Fencing four(4)feet in height consisting of not less than three (3)strands of barbed wire, <br /> or an approved equivalent, shall be placed around the excavation area where slopes steeper than <br /> two (2) feet horizontal to one (1) foot vertical are maintained. Six (6) foot high security fencing or an <br /> approved equivalent shall be required where slopes steeper than two (2) feet horizontal to one (1) <br /> foot vertical are created, if the proximity of such slopes to residential uses or other uses involving a <br /> concentration of people so warrants. (Development Title Section 31415.3[1]) <br /> k SCREENING AND LANDSCAPING: Screening consistent with Chapter 9-1020 is required <br /> (Development Title Section 9-1415.3(m]) <br /> (1) The landscaped area shall be ten (10) feet wide. Adequate setback for maintenance shall be <br /> required, and sight distance at road intersections shall not be impaired. A row of crop trees <br /> satisfies this requirement. <br /> I EXCAVATION/RECLAMATION SCHEDULE: The reclamation plan shall show the phases of <br /> excavation. Reclamation on one phase of an excavation shall be initiated prior to the start of the next <br /> excavation phase. The final reclamation of any phase of excavation shall be completed within two <br /> years of the commencement of the reclamation process. Excavation shall be limited so that at any <br /> point of time a maximum of one phase is being reclaimed while one phase is being excavated. <br /> (Development Title Section 9-1415.3(0]) <br />
