However, the infiltra, basin has not been properly maintained as evidenced by the presence of vegetative growth throughout the main treatment area, which should be 6" of clean sand, as well as trees/shrubs growing within other areas of the basin. Due the abundance of vegetative growth in and around the infiltration basin, other aspects of the permitted system such as the forebay, grass filter strip and bypass/overflow weir could not be thoroughly evaluated. Records of inspection and maintenance activities could not be provided for review upon request. Appropriate maintenance must be conducted on all parts of the permitted stormwater management system in order to meet the approved design criteria. A properly executed Designer's Certification needs to be submitted for the file. Upor completion of necessary maintenance and receipt of the Designer's Certification, a follow-up inspection will be conducted. Please note that Stormwater Management Permit SW6121104 is set to expire on November 28, 2020 and must be renewed. page 2 Permit: SW6121104 Owner - Project: Par 5 Development Group LLC Inspection Date: 08/18/2020 Inspection Type Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine File Review Yes No NA NE Is the permit active?
