d. Erosion and Sediment Controls31 i. Stabilize exposed areas and control runoff using structural and/or nonstructural controls to minimize onsite erosion and sedimentation. ii. The Village of East Aurora will consider: a) Structural and/or non-structural controls found in the NYS E&SC 2016; b) Areas that, due to topography, land disturbance (e.g., construction), or other factors, have potential for significant soil erosion; c) Whether structural, vegetative, and/or stabilization BMPs are needed to limit erosion; d) Whether velocity dissipation devices (or equivalent measures) are needed at discharge locations and along the length of any channel to provide a non-erosive flow velocity from the structure to a water course; and e) Address erosion or areas with poor vegetative cover, especially if the erosion is within fifty (50) feet of a surface water of the State. e. Manage Vegetated Areas and Open Space on Municipal Property i. Maintain vegetated areas on Village of East Aurora owned/operated property and right of ways: a) Specify proper use, storage, and disposal of pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers including minimizing the use of these products and using only in accordance manufacturer’s instruction; b) Use lawn maintenance and landscaping practices that are protective of water quality. Protective practices include: reduced mowing frequencies; proper disposal of lawn clippings; and use of alternative landscaping materials (e.g., drought resistant planting); c) Place pet waste disposal containers and signage concerning the proper collection and disposal of pet waste at all parks and open space where pets are permitted; and d) Address waterfowl congregation areas where needed to reduce waterfowl droppings from entering the MS4. f. Salt Storage Piles or Pile Containing Salt Enclose or cover storage piles of salt, or piles containing salt, used for deicing or maintenance of paved surfaces, except during loading, unloading, and handling.
