(A) The Stormwater Management Office requires that the design of a commercial plan be prepared by either a professional engineer, professional land surveyor, or registered landscape architect licensed in the state, as necessary to protect the public or the environment.
(B) Design of a residential plan may be submitted by the property owner or contractor. A residential plan may only be submitted if 1 of the selected ESD's is used for stormwater management. If ESD to the MEP can not be achieved in a residential plan, then the plan by definition will become a commercial plan.
(C) If a stormwater BMP requires either a dam safety permit from MDE or small pond approval from the Garrett Soil Conservation District (SCD), the Stormwater Management Office shall require that the design be prepared by a professional engineer licensed in the state.
