subdivision or site plan, or other early step in the development process. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the post-construction stormwater management measures necessary for the proposed project, as well as to discuss and assess constraints, opportunities and potential approaches to stormwater management designs before formal site design engineering is commenced. Local watershed plans, the Town of Fuquay-Varina open space plan, and other relevant resource protection plans may be consulted in the discussion of the concept plan. To accomplish this goal the following information must be included in the concept plan, which should be submitted in advance of the meeting: i. Existing Conditions & Proposed Layout . Existing conditions and proposed site layout sketch plans, which illustrates at a minimum; existing and proposed topography, perennial and intermittent streams, mapping of predominant soils from the soil surveys (when available), boundaries of existing predominant vegetation and proposed limits of clearing and grading, and location of existing and proposed roads, buildings, parking areas and other impervious surfaces. ii. Natural Resources Inventory . A written or graphic inventory of the natural resources on the site and surrounding area as it exists prior to the commencement of the project. This description should include a discussion of soil conditions, forest cover, geologic features, topography, environmentally sensitive areas as defined in Article S Interpretations & Definitions, and other setbacks (e.g. drinking water well setbacks, septic system setbacks, etc.). Particular attention should be paid to environmentally sensitive areas that provide particular opportunities or constraints for development. iii. Stormwater Management System Concept Plan . A written or graphic concept plan of the proposed post-development stormwater management system including preliminary selection and location of proposed engineered stormwater controls; low impact design elements, location of existing and proposed conveyance systems such as grass channels, swells, and storm drains; flow paths; location of floodplain/floodway limits; relationship of the site to upstream and downstream properties and drainages; and preliminary location of a proposed stream channel modifications, such as bridge or culvert crossings. B. Stormwater Management Permit Application . The stormwater management permit application shall detail how post-development stormwater runoff will be controlled and managed and how the proposed project will meet the requirements of this section, including §9-1405 Stormwater Management Regulations, d. Standards of the Section. All such plans shall be prepared by a qualified registered North Carolina professional
