As a condition of approval and the continuance of any use, occupancy of any structure, and operation of any process or equipment, the applicant shall supply evidence, satisfactory to the Planning Board or to its designated representative, that the proposed use, structure, process, or equipment will conform fully with all of the applicable performance standards. As evidence of compliance, the Board may require certification of tests by appropriate government agencies or by recognized testing laboratories, any costs thereof to be borne by the applicant. The Board may require that specific types of equipment, machinery or devices be installed, or that specific operating procedures or methods be followed if the government agencies or testing laboratories examining the proposed operation shall determine that the use of such specific types of machinery, equipment, devices, procedures or methods are required in order to assure compliance with the applicable performance standards. Permits and certificates required by other government agencies shall be submitted to the Planning Board as proof of compliance with applicable codes.

The requirements contained in this article shall not apply to residences, except as otherwise specified herein with respect to prohibitions applicable in all zones.

In the event determination cannot be made at the time of application that a proposed use, process or piece of equipment will meet the performance standards established in this subsection, the Board may issue a permit subject to conditions based on submission of evidence that the proposed use, process or equipment will meet the standards established herein after completion or installation and operation.

Within 30 days after a conditional certificate of occupancy is granted, or upon a mutually agreed upon extension, a final permit shall be applied for and satisfactory evidence submitted that all standards established by this subsection have been met.

Locations where determinations are to be made for enforcement of performance standards. The determination of the existence of nuisance elements shall be made at the following locations:

Continued compliance. Continued compliance with the performance standards stated herein shall be a requirement for the continued occupancy of any structure or the operation of any process or equipment.

General. No substance shall be emitted into the atmosphere in quantities which are injurious to human, plant or animal life or to property, or which will interfere unreasonably with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property anywhere in the Township. All provisions of the New Jersey Air Pollution Control Code, as amended and as augmented by regulations hereinafter designated as the "code," and all the following provisions stated, whichever shall be the more stringent, shall be complied with.

Smoke. In any zone, no smoke, the shade of which is darker than No. 1 of the Ringelmann Smoke Chart, shall be emitted into the open air from any fuel-burning equipment; provided, however, the smoke emitted during the cleaning of a firebox or the building of a new fire, the shade or appearance of which is not darker than No. 2 of the Ringelmann Smoke Chart, may be permitted for a period or periods aggregating no more than three minutes in any 15 consecutive minutes. In any SF Zone, no visible smoke shall be emitted into the open air.

Solid particles.

Odors. In any zone, no odorous material may be emitted into the atmosphere in quantities sufficient to be detected without instruments.

Liquid wastes. No liquid waste shall be discharged into any watercourse in the Township except as herein provided. If the applicant proposes to construct facilities for the treatment of wastes, he shall supply:

Solid wastes. Each use shall:

Radiation. The use or presence of ionizing radiation and particle radiation, including alpha, beta, gamma, high-energy electrons, neutrons, protons and other atomic or nuclear particles, is prohibited. Nothing in this section shall prohibit the use of x-rays for diagnostic purposes on human beings or animals, or analytical x-ray equipment uses to determine the electron microscopic structure for quality control or composition of material in the manufacturing process.

Noise.

Vibration. In any zone, no vibrations discernible without instruments at the measuring point shall be permitted.

Glare.

Heat. Heat is thermal energy of a radiating, conductive or convective nature. In any zone, any use or process shall not produce a temperature rise discernible at the measuring point or discharge water into any natural watercourse which shall produce a temperature increase of greater than 3° in the watercourse within 10 feet of the discharge point.

Fire and explosion hazards.
