The proposed grading and drainage plan shall include the following information:

(1) The general location of the work to be shown on a vicinity map.

(2) The name and address of the owner/developer and the person who prepared the plans. The legal description for the property shall also be included.

(3) Property limits and accurate contours of the existing terrain, utilizing contours at two-foot (2’) intervals for slopes of less than fifteen percent (15%) and ten-foot (10’) intervals for slopes exceeding fifteen percent (15%) and the location of existing drainage and direction of flow.

(4) The plan shall also indicate, when applicable, all existing wetlands, existing natural streams, intermittent and permanent; areas of high, moderate and slight stability hazard; excessively steep slopes (15% to 35% & 35% and greater); flood-prone areas and designated flood plains, showing elevations of the 100-year flood and poorly drained areas; and areas previously used as a land fill.

(5) Street improvements and existing and proposed public storm water facilities.

(6) Finished contours to be achieved by the grading along with the proposed drainage channels and related construction. Areas of cut and fill shall be identified in a manner to be easily identifiable.

(7) For grading and drainage plans concerning land development, the proposed lot configurations with finished elevations at all corners are to be shown. Proposed contours will indicate necessary grading for street improvements, delineating edge of earth work for sidewalk construction.

(8) Detailed plans of all subsurface and surface drainage devices, walls, cribbing, dams, and other protective devices to be constructed with, or as part of the proposed work.

(9) Location of any existing or proposed buildings or structures, including retaining walls, on the property where the work is to be performed, and the location of any proposed or existing buildings or structures, including retaining walls, on land adjacent to the project which are within 15 feet of any area affected by the proposed grading operations.

(10) Specifications shall contain information covering construction and material requirements; describing, but not limited to, soil compaction requirements, measures to mitigate soil erosion along with the background computations made for the sizing of drainage facilities. The specifications shall describe the maintenance responsibilities of all private storm water systems.

(11) Plans for depositing the excavated soil at a particular on-site location or transporting it from the site.
