943.10 ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS.
   (a)   When the County Drainage Engineer determines that site constraints compromise the intent of this Chapter, off-site alternatives that result in an improvement of water quality and a reduction of storm water quantity may be used. Such alternatives shall meet the following standards:
      (1)   Achieve the same level of storm water quantity and quality control achieved by the on-site controls required under this Chapter.
      (2)   Implement the same Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) watershed unit as the proposed development project.
      (3)   The mitigation ratio of the water quality volume is 1.5 to 1 or the water quality volume at the point of retrofit, whichever is greater.
      (4)   Establish an inspection and maintenance agreement, as described in Section 943.08 (d)(10), to ensure perpetual maintenance.
      (5)   Obtain prior written approval from Ohio EPA.
 
   (b)   Alternative actions require approval by the County Drainage Engineer.
