BUILDING ENCLOSURES: Every use permitted in the Eco Commerce Park zone shall be operated in its entirety within a completely enclosed building. In the IP, I-1, I-2, I-4, and I-5 industrial districts, permitted uses shall be operated either within a completely enclosed building or within an area screened from view at the nearest district boundary, according to SECTION 9.17 and ARTICLE XIV of this ordinance.

LANDSCAPING: In all industrial districts and the Eco Commerce Park zone, all required yards shall either be open landscaped and grassed areas or be left in a natural state, if acceptable to the planning commission. If said area is to be landscaped, it shall be landscaped attractively with lawn, trees, shrubs, etc., according to the initially submitted plans which were first approved of for the development of such tract as a permitted use.

In areas to be used for off-street parking, the parking arrangement and surfacing must likewise have been approved of for the development of such tract as a permitted use. Any landscaped areas shall be properly maintained thereafter in a sightly and well kept condition. Parking areas shall likewise be maintained in good condition. Any areas left in a natural state shall be properly maintained in a well kept condition.

NOISE: For the purpose of measuring the intensity and frequencies of a sound, a type 1 or type 2 sound level meter shall be employed that conforms to specifications published by the American National Standards Institute (specifications for Sound Level Meters S1.4 - 1971, or the latest edition of such standards, shall be used). In the enforcement of the regulation, noises produced by the operation of motor vehicles or other transportation facilities shall not be included in determining the maximum permitted decibel level. The sound pressure of noise radiated continuously from any activity shall not exceed the value given in Tables 1 and 2 of this section, at the location of any receiving land use. If the noise is not smooth and continuous, one or more of the corrections in Table 2 of this section shall be added or subtracted from each of the decibel levels given in Table 1 of this ordinance.

In all districts, industrial noise shall be muffled so as not to become objectionable due to intermittence, beat, frequency, or shrillness.

ODOROUS MATTER: No emission of odorous matter shall be allowed in excess of ambient air quality standards, as set forth by regulations adopted by the Kentucky Department for Natural Resources and Environmental Protection, Division of Air Pollution, Cincinnati Air Quality Region.

HUMIDITY, HEAT OR GLARE: In the IP, I-1, or ECP districts, any activity producing humidity, in the form of steam or moist air, or producing heat or glare, shall be carried on in such a manner that the steam, humidity, heat, or glare is not perceptible at any lot line. In the I-2 and I-5 districts, any activity producing heat or glare shall be carried on in such a manner that the steam, humidity, heat, or glare is not perceptible at or beyond any residential or commercial district boundary. Detailed plans for the elimination of humidity, heat, or glare may be required before the issuance of a building permit.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING: Any lights used for exterior illumination, except for overhead street lighting and warning, or traffic signals shall direct light away from the adjoining zones.

VIBRATION: Vibrations shall be measured at the lot line in the IP, I-1, and ECP districts and at the nearest district boundary in the I-2 and I-5 districts. No vibration is permitted which is discernible to the human sense of feeling for three (3) minutes or more duration in any one (1) hour. Vibration shall not produce, at any time, an acceleration of more than 0.1 gravities or shall result in any combination of amplitudes and frequencies beyond the "safe" range of Table 7, United States Bureau of Mines, Bulletin No. 442, "Seismic Efforts of Quarry Blasting", on any structure. The methods and equations of said Bulletin No. 442, or any subsequent revision or amendment thereto, shall be used to compute all values for the enforcement of these provisions. Detailed plans for the elimination of vibrations may be required before the issuance of any building permit.

EMISSIONS AND OPEN BURNING: No emission of particulate matter, sulfur, compound, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon, nitrogen oxide, and open burning shall be allowed in all industrial zones and the Eco Commerce Park zone in excess of regulations adopted by the Kentucky Department for Natural Resources and Environmental Protection, Division of Air Pollution, Cincinnati Air Quality Region.

RADIATION: In all industrial zones and the Eco Commerce Park zone, all sources of ionizing radiation shall be registered or licensed by the Kentucky State Department of Health and operated in accordance with their regulations.

ELECTRICAL RADIATION: In all industrial zones and the Eco Commerce Park zone, any electrical radiation shall not adversely affect, at any point on or beyond the lot line, any operation or equipment, other than those of the creation of the radiation. Avoidance of adverse effects from electrical radiation by appropriate single or mutual scheduling of operations is permitted.

STORAGE: In the ECP Zone, no material, products, or supplies shall be stored or permitted to remain on any part of the property outside the buildings constructed thereon.

FIRE AND EXPLOSIVE HAZARDS: In the I-2, I-4 and I-5 zones only, storage, utilization, or manufacture of solid materials which requires free burning and intense burning may be allowed if permitted in said zones, provided that said materials or products shall be stored, utilized, or manufactured within completely enclosed buildings having incombustible walls and protected throughout by an automatic fire extinguishing system. In the I-2, I-4 and I-5 zones only, the storage, utilization, or manufacture of flammable liquids, or materials which produce flammable or explosive vapors or gases, may be allowed if permitted in said zones, provided that storage, handling, and use shall be in accordance with Standards of American Insurance Association for Storage, Handling, and Use of Flammable Liquids, "American Insurance Association", Pamphlet No. 30, June 1959, or any subsequent revision or amendment thereto.

WASTE: Within the IP and ECP zone, no waste material or refuse shall be dumped upon, or permitted to remain upon, any part of the part of the property outside of the buildings constructed thereon. All sewage and industrial waste shall be treated and disposed of in such a manner so as to comply with the standards of the appropriate authority. All plans for waste disposal facilities shall be required before the issuance of any building permit.

MINING AND RECLAMATION: All methods of operation, construction of roads, back-filling, grading, blasting, water impoundments, treatment facilities, and reclamation must be in conformance with the regulations adopted by the Department for Natural Resources and Environmental Protection, Division of Reclamation. Any excavation or processing operations shall be subject to the regulations of the Kentucky Water Pollution Control Commission.

BLASTING AND EXPLOSIVES: All blasting and the use of explosives must be conducted in accordance with the regulations set forth by the Department of Mines and Minerals, Division of Explosives and Blasting (pursuant to the authority of KRS 351.310 to 351.340 and 351.990) and in accordance with the Standards of Safety for Explosives, for the state of Kentucky, prepared by the Department of Public Safety, Division of Fire Prevention (pursuant to the authority of KRS 227.300).
