47 <br /> Plan Submission <br /> Predevelopment Consultation <br /> Consultation with those reviewing the site plan and pond design are encouraged before <br /> submission of the application for development approval. The purpose is to review the proposal <br /> and discuss how these standards apply to the specific site. It is also an opportunity to answer <br /> questions and attempt to work out any conflicts before submitting a formal application. <br /> Plan Content <br /> At a minimum the plan must include the following: <br /> • <br /> A topographic map of the pond location and surrounding area (not the entire watershed) <br /> based on a field survey by a registered engineer or surveyor. <br /> Calculations to support the requirements of this standard, assumptions, the design, etc. <br /> including runoff, storage volumes, surface area, pipe and spillway sizing, velocity in <br /> spillway for lining, outlet protection, flood routing, etc. <br /> Plans of the design with pertinent information required to evaluate design and for it to <br /> be built according to the design. <br /> Soils investigation report performed by a qualified individual. <br /> Profile of dam with outlet structure elevations. <br /> Illustrative cross sections of the basin with finished elevations showing areas to be left <br /> shallow to encourage the growth of vegetation or, if part of the design, to be deeper to <br /> discourage growth and provide recreation or other uses. <br /> Erosion control plan, if applicable, along with application, fees, etc. (Erosion control <br /> should at least be considered in the design, but the actual submission of the plan for <br /> approval will depend on the proposed date for the start of construction.) <br /> Landscaping, stabilization, other pertinent information, such as establishing marsh <br /> vegetation, providing recreation facilities, etc. <br /> DRAFT 12 June 1993 <br />
