Compaction The densification, settlement, or packing of soil in such a way that permeability of the soft is reduced. Compost Organic material that has undergone biological degradation and transformation under controfled conditions designed to promoteaerobic decomposition ata solid waste facility in compliance with the requirements of Chapter 173-350 WAC, or blosolids composted in compliancewith Chapter 173-308 WAC. Compostingis a form of organic material recycling. Critical Area Ataminimum,areaswhich includewetlands, areas with acriticalrechargingeffect on aquifers used for potable water, fish and wildlife habitat conservation areas, frequentlyflooded areas, geologically hazardous areas, Including unstable slopes, and associated areas and ecosystems. Dispersion Release of surface and stormwater runoff such that the flow spreads over a wide area and is located so as not to allow flow to concentrate anywhere upstream of a drainage channel with erodible underlying granular soils. Hard Surface An impervious surface, a permeable pavement, or a vegetated roof. Impervious Surface Anon-vegetatedsurfaceareawhicheitherpreventsorretardstheentryofwaterinto the soil mantle as under natural conditions prior to development. A non -vegetated surface area which causes water to run offthe surface In greater quantities or atan increased rate of flow from the flow present under natural conditions prior to development. Common Impervious surfaces include. but are not limited to, roof tops, walkways, patios, driveways, parking lots or storage areas, concrete or asphalt paving, gravel roads, packed earthen materials, and oiled, macadam or other surfaces which similarly Impede the natural infiltration of stormwater. Open, Uncovered retention/ detention facilities shall not be considered as Impervious surfaces for the purposes of determining whether the thresholds for application of Minimum Requirements are exceeded. Open, uncovered retention/detention facilities shall be considered impervious surfaces for purposes of runoff modeling.
