[Adopted 10-27-1993 by Ord. No. 93-30 as
Ch. 117, Art. II, of the 1993 Code]
This section shall be known as the "Stormwater
Quality Control Regulations of the Township of Manalapan."
It is hereby found that pollutants used in outdoor
operations or activities on private property have in many cases contributed
significantly to water pollution and that such pollution is detrimental
to the health and welfare of the community. It is therefore determined
that the special public interest in the control of the quality of
stormwater justifies the regulation of property located within the
community as provided in this article, which is the exercise of the
police power of the municipality for the preservation of the public
health, safety and welfare.
No person shall carry out any activity or operation
which shall cause pollutants to be discharged whether directly on
the land or through a private or municipal drainage system in such
concentration or quantity that receiving waters or groundwater sources
of water supply become polluted such as to violate state water quality
standards. Pollutants shall include but not be limited to grease,
oils, chemicals and grit.
Upon complaint or information by any citizen
or any municipal employee of the Township, the Township Sanitary Inspector
shall investigate the water quality of any direct connection, receiving
water or groundwater sources of supply and, if such water quality
is below state standards, shall determine the type and source of pollutants
where possible.
In the furtherance of the purposes of this article,
it shall be a violation thereof for any person to bury an organic,
processed organic or nonorganic materials on any lands, except as
otherwise permitted by this Code or other applicable law, provided,
further, that nothing contained herein, unless as otherwise permitted
or limited by this Code or other applicable law, shall prohibit the
burying of tree stumps and related tree materials on land parcels
not exceeding one acre and used as the residence of the person burying
such tree stumps and related tree materials on the land.[1]
