See § 289-44C of this chapter.
G. 
Earthmoving activities. All earthmoving activities within the Township shall be conducted in such a way as to prevent accelerated erosion and the resulting sedimentation. To fulfill the requirements of the DEP Rules and Regulations, Chapter 102, for any subdivision that requires the construction of streets or other earthmoving activity on an area of over 25 acres, the Township Planning Commission shall not recommend approval and the Board of Supervisors shall not approve the final plan unless the subdivider submits evidence that he has obtained an earth disturbance permit from the Department of Environmental Protection.
