Stormwater Quality. A primary goal of the County is the protection of the quality of nearby waters. The Owner and Developer shall be required to abide by all provisions of Federal, State and County laws and regulations for the handling of stormwater, including those established by the Department of Health and Environmental Control, the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, and their successors. In order to protect water quality of the rivers, the Owner agrees to prepare a master plan of the stormwater drainage systems , as defined in the ZDSO for all or any portion of the Property, for each Initial Development Application; to construct stormwater drainage systems in accordance with the approved master plan; and, to maintain the stormwater drainage systems ensuring proper operation and function. In order to meet the water quality and anti-degradation goals which are impacted by the amount of impervious surfaces, the Owner, its successors and assigns commit to design stormwater management systems in accordance with the County’s current Best Management Practices (“BMP’s”). Further, Owner agrees to provide BMP’s for pre-treatment, including supplemental open space (in accordance with the most current edition available of the Beaufort County Storm Water Best Management Practices manual, required by engineering design and calculations. In addition to the water quality safeguards committed to above by the Owner, notwithstanding Article IX hereof, the Owner and Developer shall adhere to any and all future ordinances or regulations of the County (or portions thereof) governing detention, filtration, and treatment of stormwater provided those ordinances and regulations apply County-wide and are consistent with sound engineering practices. It is specifically agreed, however, that any such ordinances of the County that directly or indirectly affect the setback, buffer or open space requirements permitted pursuant to the ZDSO and/or this Agreement shall not be applicable to the Owner, the Developer and the Property without the Owner’s and Developer’s express written consent thereto; provided, however, that open space requirements may be modified as a result of specific implementation requirements for future stormwater management BMP’s related to detention and treatment of stormwater that are applicable County-wide and are consistent with sound engineering practices, unless such change in requirements is less than twenty percent (20%) and the appropriate increase in density/inte...
Stormwater Quality. The development must comply with the storm water quality assessment in the Storm water Management Report prepared by Xxxxx and Xxxxxx Engineers dated 3/12/19 approved with this development application. Prior to issue of any Subdivision Works Certificate a design certification report prepared by a suitably qualified practitioner engineer (NPER) must be submitted to and approved by the Council’s Public Domain Unit. The report must include a response to all storm water quality improvement devices structural integrity, treatment train and their treatment properties demonstrating compliance with the approved MUSIC e-link reports.
