e e 6. La Porte shall take all reasonable measures to prevent vehicles leaving the Landfill from tracking mud onto the access roads to the Landfill. 7. The Parties agree that it is necessary to control stormwater runoff from a municipal landfill. La Porte has prepared plans and specifications of its stormwater control facilities and the same have been submitted to and approved by the Harris County Flood Control District. The Parties agree that stormwater control facilities that are constructed in accordance with the plans and specifications attached hereto as Attachment No.2, constitute reasonable and adequate stormwater control measures, subject to the change in location of the perimeter drainage ditch described in paragraph 10 below. La Porte shall maintain its on-site drainage facilities in a condition so that they function substantially as designed. 8. La Porte agrees that the Landfill will be constructed and operated in accordance with the application as it is currently cast with the TDH. The Landfill shall not exceed a height of approximately 39 feet mean sea level ("msl"). La Porte agrees to maintain vegetation along the north, south and west buffer zones which. will minimize, so far as is practicable, the visual impact (')f the Landf ill from these three directions. In particular, along the north buffer zone, La Porte will plant trees which can be expected to grow to a height of approximately 40 feet msl (approximately 26 feet above grade) and to plant such bushes, shrubs, and the like among the trees to provide visual screening between the ground and the start of the foliage of the taller trees. The naturally occurring vegetation will form the visual screening to the west and south. Should any naturally occurring vegetation or foliage be destroyed along the west and south buffer zones by act of man or nature, La Porte shall replant the disturbed area with tree saplings or shrubbery of a like kind indigenous to the buffer zone areas. La Porte will replant saplings in the areas in the west buffer zone that have been disturbed by entry of equipment on the site, with such replanting to occur prior to the time the landfill first receives municipal was.te.
