The purpose and intent of the Geological Feature Protection
EPOD is to eliminate the impacts of development activities on significant
geological features in the Town by prohibiting activities in areas
that encompass protected geological features (hereinafter "geological
feature").
The boundaries of the Geological Feature Protection EPOD shall
be delineated on the Official Town of Mendon EPOD Maps and shall include
all areas designated by the Town and all areas within 50 feet of a
geological feature. In order to more accurately locate and delineate
Geological Feature Protection EPOD boundaries within the Town, the
CEO or Town Engineer may consult other topographic information. This
other topographic information may include, but is not limited to,
the Soil Survey Report for Monroe County; topographic maps produced
by the United States Geological Survey and/or the Monroe County Environmental
Management Council; field survey maps; and other appropriate sources.
No person may conduct any development activity within any Geological
Feature Protection EPOD in the Town.
