This chapter will be known as the "Town of Wappinger
Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Ordinance."
Excessive quantities of soil are eroding within
areas that are undergoing development for nonagricultural uses such
as housing developments, industrial sites, roads and recreation areas
in the Town of Wappinger. This soil erosion makes necessary costly
repairs to gullies, washed out fills, roads and embankments. The resulting
sediment clogs storm sewers, muddies streams and silts lakes. Sediment
is expensive to remove and limits the use of water for most beneficial
purposes. Sediment choked streams can result in flooding and associated
damages, including the threat to public health and safety.
