During this time, all temporary soil erosion & sedimentation control measures must be installed as approved upon inspection (there will be no waiver for weather conditions). A deposit of cash or a letter of credit in the amount of the remaining work needed to permanently stabilize the site must be submitted as well. A final soil erosion and sedimentation control approval will always require a final grading and drainage inspection even if a final grading and drainage approval was previously granted.
