4-2 SOURCE CONTROL BMP SPECIFICATIONS <br /> In this section,details and specifications are given for two different types of source controls-those appropriate for <br /> construction sites and those for other urban land uses,such as businesses. The City may require any source <br /> control BMPs which are appropriate for a particular business or construction site. <br /> The construction site source control BMPs are organized by the activities found in the Construction Site <br /> Activities Checklist(Table 1-4.1, Section 1-4). These BMPs are mostly presented in the form of guidelines and <br /> should be implemented on all construction sites where the described activities will occur. <br /> The urban land use source control BMPs are organized by the activities found on the Land Use Activities <br /> Checklist(Table 1-4.2, Section 1-4). Specific recommendations for each business are not made since the <br /> activities for each vary widely. <br /> 4-2.1 CONSTRUCTION SITE SOURCE CONTROL BMPS <br /> ` 1 BMP C1.10 PESTICIDE CONTROL <br /> The "pesticide" includes herbicides and rodenticides as well as those chemicals used to control insect <br /> populat <br /> Pesticides s' . • ly be used in conjunction with Integrated Pest Management(see BMP S1.90).
