(A) The Board shall have the power to modify or waive any minimum drainage standard found in this subchapter or any regulations promulgated by it. The Board may, but is not required to, grant such a modification or waiver if an applicant for a drainage permit makes a substantial showing:
(1) That a minimum drainage standard regulation is infeasible or unreasonably burdensome; and
(2) That an alternate plan submitted by the applicant will achieve the same objective and purpose as compliance with minimum drainage standards and regulations.
(B) The request for a variance together with supporting information shall be made in writing to the Board who shall make a decision within 30 days.
