Construction must occur within clear limits for hours, dust, lighting, traffic, vibration, and generator noise.
Provisions
-
Construction Hours — Strict Limits
Work is limited to 7:00am–6:00pm Monday through Friday and 8:00am–4:00pm Saturday. No Sundays or federal holidays. -
Off-Hours Construction Penalties
Unauthorized work triggers a $25,000 penalty per incident. A third violation within 30 days requires a 72-hour shutdown. -
Construction Dust & Air Quality
Property-line monitoring, dust suppression, wheel-wash stations, covered stockpiles, and penalties for visible dust or excessive PM10. -
Construction Lighting
Lighting must be shielded, directional, and aimed away from homes. Continuous overnight illumination is prohibited. -
Construction Traffic Management
Approved haul routes, GPS tracking, daily truck limits, off-site worker parking, and traffic controls near school-bus routes. -
Vibration Monitoring & Structural Protection
Nearby homes receive pre-construction structural surveys, real-time vibration monitoring, and protection against construction-related damage. -
Noise During Generator Testing
Generator testing must follow operational noise limits and cannot occur overnight, on Sundays, or on federal holidays. -
Noise During Grid Outages
Noise limits remain enforceable during outages, and extended generator use increases community-impact payments.
