§ 88-11.822. Final slope gradient.
Final slope gradients shall assure slope stability, maintenance of required vegetation, public safety, and the control of drainage, as may be determined by engineering analysis of soils and geologic conditions and by taking into account probable future uses of the site. They shall not exceed the critical gradient as determined by an engineering analysis of the slope stability. Additionally, they shall not:
(1)
Be incompatible with the alternate future uses anticipated for the site; or
(2)
Be hazardous to persons that may use the site under the alternate future uses anticipated for the site; or
(3)
Reduce the effectiveness of revegetation and erosion control measures where such are necessary.
