If an erosion control fix requires more time than seven days, what is required to extend the deadline?

• A. No extension allowed
• B. Extension allowed only with city approval
• C. Extension allowed only by the project owner
• D. Extension longer with VSMP authority approval

Answer: (D)

When you need more than seven days to complete an erosion control fix, the extension must come from the VSMP authority. The VSMP authority oversees stormwater and erosion control compliance and can approve extra time in a way that aligns with the permit requirements and site conditions. City approval or permission from the project owner alone isn’t enough to extend the deadline. Typically you’d submit a justification and updated schedule to the VSMP authority for their review and approval, ensuring the delay doesn’t increase sediment discharge and stays within permit rules.
