Where uncertainty exists as to the boundaries of the watershed areas, as shown on the Watershed Map, the following rules shall apply:
(a) Where area boundaries are indicated as approximately following either street, alley, railroad o/ highway lines or centerlines thereof, such lines shall be construed to be said boundaries.
(b) Where area boundaries are indicated as approximately following lot lines, such lot lines shall be construed to be said boundaries. However, a surveyed plat prepared by a registered land surveyor may be submitted to the City of Claremont as evidence that one or more properties along these boundaries do not lie within the watershed area,
(c) Where the watershed area boundaries lie at a scaled distance more than twenty-five (25) feet from any parallel lot line, the location of watershed area boundaries shall be determined by use of the scale appearing on the watershed map. Any ambiguities should be resolved in favor of locating built-upon surface area in the least environmentally sensitive area of the project.
(d) Where the watershed area boundaries lie at a scaled distance of twenty-five (25) feet or less from any parallel lot line, the location of watershed area boundaries shall be construed to be the lot line.
(e) Where other uncertainty exists, the Watershed Administrator shall interpret the Watershed Map as to location of such boundaries. This decision may be appealed to the Watershed Review Board.
