I dont have BSP in front of me, but would think there's no such thing as a temporary removal. You go out and remove it properly. You cant leave drops lose. They're not even supposed to be loose, they need to be tied down on a terminal.
If it was really temporary, no one is going to get around to clearing the infraction for 3 years after it gets reported, so you're probably fine, but there's no reason not to use a lay up stick and hang it off something near the terminal, like a pole step or span clamp
