Redland Brick, Phases 3 & 4 Earth Removal
PH 10-3-2000
c�1. Request for an earth removal permit under Section 14 to extract clay on
Redland Brick property, RR zone. The applicant received an earth removal
permit in February of this year for excavation of Phases 1 and 2; that permit is
valid until February 2002.
2. Section 14 allows the Commission to approve removal of earth materials,
including clay, after a Public Hearing, in conformance to certain criteria,
including:
♦ At the conclusion of the operation or any substantial portion thereof, the
whole area where removal takes place must be covered with not less than 4
inches of topsoil and seeded;
♦ Final grades cannot exceed 2:1 slopes;
♦ Except in the Industrial zone, no stone crusher or other machinery not
required for actual removal of material is allowed; and
♦ A restoration bond is required.
General approval criteria that the Commission can consider include the effect
of the removal on surrounding property and the future usefulness of the
premises when the operation is completed.
The plans reflect that there will be 4 inches of topsoil and seeding over all
excavated areas when completed. If the excavated area retains water and takes
on pond characteristics, as has happened in previous pits, then pond
conditions will be maintained and seeding will be done to the edges of the
pond. The plans also reflect finished grades of 2.5 to 1 on all outside edges of
the excavation area.
3. The permit may be granted for a period not exceeding two years, but there is
an extension provision allowing the Commission to grant extensions with or
without a public hearing. The applicant is requesting that the permit for phases
3 and 4 have the same expiration date as the permit for phases 1 and 2, so that
the two-year permit renewal can be done simultaneously. This can be
accomplished by setting a permit expiration date of February 28, 2002 for
phases 3 and 4, or by extending the permit expiration date for phases 1 and 2
to coincide with the approval date for phases 3 and 4.
4. The site is accessed from Route 5.
5. There are regulated wetlands on the site. The IWA/CC referred this
application to their enforcement officer for approval, which is similar to this
Commission's in-house staff approval process.
If this application is approved, Planning Dept. has no requested approval
modifications.
