Morrisville UDO Administrative Manual, August 1, 2018 version

Part 3. Outside Agency Permits and Approvals 3.1 Local Agency and Utility Approvals

PART 3. OUTSIDE AGENCY PERMITS AND APPROVALS Although the Town has primary responsibility for regulating land development within its jurisdiction, a number of aspects of development are also subject to regulation by outside agencies, including State government agencies, county agencies, or entities providing utilities. 3.1. LOCAL AGENCY AND UTILITY APPROVALS The Town relies on Wake County’s erosion and sedimentation control regulations to ensure compliance with the State’s Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. Those regulations are found in Article 10, Erosion and Sedimentation Control, of the Wake County Unified Development Code. They require approval of an erosion and sedimentation control plan and a land disturbance permit by the County Department of Environmental Services before any land disturbing activity that will disturb more than one acre or that needs sediment control measures to protect against off-site damages. Although Wake County administers review procedures relevant to such approvals, Town staff conducts routine inspections of local land disturbing activities to help ensure compliance with the County erosion and sedimentation control regulations. Town staff reports any potential problems at construction sites subject to erosion and sedimentation control plans and land disturbance permits to the Wake County Department of Environmental Services and monitors and documents any follow-up actions.
