PB12-7. - Environmental Protection.

Nothing herein shall prevent or preclude the MPRB from taking any of the following actions on a floodplain or protected shoreland: building or maintaining any structure; removing vegetation (not including routine mowing of grass and trimming of trees, shrubs, bushes or similar vegetation); or grading or filling. However, upon undertaking any such action, the MPRB shall comply with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations and, to the extent reasonably feasible as determined by the MPRB, shall employ measures to minimize stormwater runoff into protected waters, maximize overland flow and flow distances over surfaces covered with vegetation, employ on-site filtration techniques, replicate predevelopment hydrologic conditions, minimize off-site discharge of pollutants to ground and surface waters, and encourage natural filtration functions. (Pk. Bd. Ord. No. 2001-102, § 1, 9-19-01)
