Fugitive dust can be generated from natural causes such as wind or from man-made causes such as unpaved haul roads and operational areas, storage, hauling and handling of aggregate materials, construction activities and demolition activities. Fugitive dust contributes particulate matter (PM) emissions to the atmosphere. PM emissions must be minimized in order to meet National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). Information source is the Utah Department Environmental Quality Division of Air Quality.                         Utah Administrative Code R307-205-5 2(a) Fugitive Dust,  requires the that                         anyone engaging in clearing or leveling of land greater than one-quarter acre in                               size, earth moving, excavation, or movement of trucks or construction equipment                          over cleared land greater than one quarter acre or access haul roads shall take                            steps to minimize fugitive dust from such activities. Such control may include                                    watering and chemical stabilization of potential fugitive dust sources or other                                 equivalent methods or techniques. Additionally, the owner or operator of any                            land area greater than one-quarter acre that has been cleared or excavated shall                                  take measures to prevent particulate matter from becoming airborne.                          All persons undertaking construction activities, that meet the threshold                                          identified in the above paragraph shall be required to submit an Air Quality                                    Permit Application as a condition for receiving a building permit. Agricultural                               and horticultural activities are exempt from this requirement.                         Additionally, anyone demolishing homes, buildings or other structures shall be                              required to comply with the State of Utah asbestos mitigation requirements. Mitigation of fugitive dust shall also apply to the removal of paving                        material from roads or parking areas.                         An Air Quality Permit Application, including a Blasting Addendum, shall be                                  included in the Building Permit Application packet available from the town                                   office or from the town web site. 9.7.7.      Liquid or Solid Wastes. No discharge at any point into public sewer, private sewage system, or stream, or into the ground shall be permitted, except in accordance with the standards approved by the State Department of Health or standards equivalent to those approved by such Department.  No materials or wastes shall be deposited on any property in such form or manner that they may be transferred off the property by natural causes or forces, and any wastes which might be attractive to rodents or insects shall be stored outdoors only in closed containers. 9.7.8   Noise                         All construction operations using heavy equipment (including but not limited                                to bulldozers, excavators, motor graders, drilling rigs) shall not be operated                                   before 7:00 am or after 5:30 pm, weekdays and weekends, within 500 feet of                                 residential housing consistent with Section 9.6.
