Engineering Plan Review staff has completed the review of the submittal received in our office on 9/18/14. Please address the following comments:
- The proposed and existing impervious area numbers in the Site Data Table and on in Section IV #9 of the Stormwater Management Permit Application form do not match. The Site Data Table lists the existing impervious as 2,550 sf and the proposed impervious is listed as 6,103 sf. The permit application has the existing listed at 1,593 sf and the proposed listed at 5,804 sf. Please revise so these numbers match.
