Dublin requires Sediment and Erosion Control Plans for any construction disturbing 1+ acre per Chapter 53. Silt fencing, construction entrances, and inlet protection are mandatory. OEPA NPDES Construction General Permit applies.
Erosion control measures must be installed before ground disturbance begins and maintained until permanent stabilization (typically 70 percent vegetative cover). Dublin Engineering performs pre-construction meetings and periodic inspections. Temporary stabilization required within 7 days on slopes steeper than 3:1. Concrete washout stations required on active sites. Construction entrances must be stone-armored to prevent track-out onto public streets. Violations often trigger stop-work orders until corrected.
Daily fines 250-1,000 dollars; stop-work orders; OEPA enforcement for NPDES violations up to 10,000 dollars per day.
