Legal Documents of Maryville

The State of Tennessee may require water quality buffers during construction activities via provisions contained in the Tennessee Construction General Permit (CGP) or other regulatory permits and processes. The state's requirements may, or may not, align with the City of Maryville's requirements and policies for water quality buffers. It is the responsibility of the site developer to be informed about, and follow the requirements of, any state-level buffer requirements. If the State of Tennessee and Maryville buffer requirements differ, the more stringent requirement shall apply. (1999 Code, § 19-720)
