(a) Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan Required: The applicant shall develop a Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan describing how the quantity and quality of storm water will be managed after construction is complete for every discharge from the site and/or into a water resource. The Plan will illustrate the type, location, and dimensions of every structural and non-structural storm water management practice incorporated into the site design, and the rationale for their selection. The rationale must address how these storm water management practices will address flooding within the site as well as flooding that may be caused by the development upstream and downstream of the site. The rationale will also describe how the storm water management practices minimize impacts to the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of on-site and downstream water resources and, if necessary, correct current degradation of water resources that is occurring or take measures to prevent predictable degradation of water resources.
(b) Preparation by Professional Engineer: The Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan shall be prepared by a registered professional engineer and include supporting calculations, plan sheets, and design details. To the extent necessary, as determined by the Village Engineer, a site survey shall be performed by a Registered Professional Surveyor to establish boundary lines, measurements, or land surfaces.
(c) Community Procedures: The Village Engineer or the Village Administrator shall prepare and maintain procedures providing specific criteria and guidance to be followed when designing the storm water management system for the site. These procedures may be updated from time to time, at the discretion of the Village Engineer based on improvements in engineering, science, monitoring, and local maintenance experience. The Village Engineer shall make the final determination of whether the practices proposed in the Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan meet the requirements of this regulation. The Village Engineer may also maintain a list of acceptable Best Management Practices, including the most current edition of the Mid Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) Stormwater Manual, that meet the criteria of this regulation to be used in the Village of New Concord.
(d) Contents of Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan: The Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan shall contain an application, narrative report, construction site plan sheets, a long-term Inspection and Maintenance Agreement, and a site description with the following information provided:

C. Existing and proposed one-foot (1') contours. This must include a delineation of drainage watersheds expected before, during, and after major grading activities as well as the size of each drainage watershed in acres.
D. Water resource locations including springs, wetlands, streams, lakes, water wells, and associated setbacks on or within 200 feet of the site, including the boundaries of wetlands or streams and first subsequent named receiving water(s) the applicant intends to fill or relocate for which the applicant is seeking approval from the Army Corps of Engineers and/or Ohio EPA.
E. Existing and planned locations of buildings, roads, parking facilities, and utilities.
F. The location of any in-stream activities including stream crossings.
(3) Contact information: Company name and contact information as well as contact name, addresses, and phone numbers for the following:
A. The Professional Engineer who prepared the Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan.
B. The site owner.
(4) Phase, if applicable, of the overall development plan.
(5) List of sublot numbers if project is a subdivision.
(6) Ohio EPA NPDES Permit Number and other applicable state and federal permit numbers, if available, or status of various permitting requirements if final approvals have not been received.
(7) Location, including complete site address and sublot number if applicable.
(8) Location of any easements or other restrictions placed on the use of the property.
(9) A site plan sheet showing:
A. The location of each proposed post-construction storm water management practice.
B. The geographic coordinates of the site AND each proposed practice in North American Datum Ohio State Plane North.
It is preferred that the entire site be shown on one plan sheet to allow a complete view of the site during plan review. If a smaller scale is used to accomplish this, separate sheets providing an enlarged view of areas on individual sheets should also be provided.
(10) An Inspection and Maintenance Agreement. The Inspection and Maintenance Agreement required for storm water management practices under this regulation shall be between the Village of New Concord and the applicant and shall contain the following information and provisions:
A. The location of each storm water management practice, including those practices permitted to be located in, or within fifty (50) feet of, water resources, and identification of the drainage area served by each storm water management practice.
B. A schedule for regular maintenance for each aspect of the storm water management system to ensure continued performance of that system as is detailed in the approved Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan. This schedule may include additional standards, as required by the Village of New Concord Engineer, to ensure continued performance of storm water management practices permitted to be located in, or within fifty (50) feet of, water resources.
C. Identification of the landowner(s), organization, or municipality responsible for long-term maintenance, including repairs, of the storm water management practices.
