The degree of protection required by this chapter is considered reasonable for regulatory purposes and is based on historical records, engineering, and scientific methods of study. Larger storms may occur or stormwater runoff amounts or stormwater quality may be altered by man-made or natural causes. This chapter does not imply that land uses permitted will be free from stormwater damage. This chapter shall not create liability on the part of the county, or any officer, representative, or employee thereof, for any damage that may result from reliance on this chapter, or on any administrative decision lawfully made thereunder.
