All excavations made pursuant to this chapter,
whenever the same are unattended, shall be securely covered with material
having a live-load capacity of at least 20 pounds per square foot,
All excavations shall be filled to grade level by 6:00 p.m. prevailing
time on the date which is stated in the permit as to when the excavation
was to be filled, except that excavated test holes for percolation
tests shall be filled immediately upon inspection and/or approval
by the Department of Health or the designated health official.
No vehicles or machine such as a bulldozer,
front-end loader or other like unit with metal track shall be allowed
to cross or move on any paved portion of a Township street or highway,
unless the road surface is properly planked.
All operations shall be conducted in strict
accordance with any federal, state or local law, ordinance or regulation
and the terms and conditions of any permit granted for the operations.
More specifically, but without limitation, the operator shall strictly
comply with the New Jersey Freshwater Wetlands Act rules and regulations and the New Jersey Stormwater Management
laws, rules and regulations. No operation shall be permitted within
100 feet of any stream or wetland, unless it can be shown that no
federal or state regulation would be violated and that soil removal
would not alter the quantity or quality of the water, nor adversely
affect the rate of flow, and that the final finishing grade requires
soil removal within the one-hundred-foot distance. However, even if
any state or federal law, rule or regulation would permit the operation
or removal within 100 feet of a stream or wetland, the within restriction
applies.
In the case of any violation of this chapter
or in the case of any excavation being conducted without the required
permit, the Township of Hampton, through the Zoning Officer, may institute
an action to enjoin or other appropriate action or proceeding in court
to prevent the violation of this chapter.
