IMPERVIOUS SURFACE: | A hard surface area which either prevents or retards the entry of water into the soil mantle as under natural conditions prior to construction, or a hard surface area which causes water to run off the surface in greater quantities or at an increased rate of flow compared to conditions prior to construction. Common “impervious surfaces” include, but are not limited to, rooftops, walkways, patios, driveways, parking lots, concrete or asphalt paving, gravel roads, packed earthen materials and oiled, macadam or other surfaces which impede the natural infiltration of stormwater. Open, uncovered retention or detention facilities are not considered to be impervious surfaces for the purposes of this title. |
