ii. Avoid increases in stormwater discharge velocities by using vegetated or roughened swales and waterways in place of closed drains and high velocity paved sections:
iii. Provide energy dissipaters at outlets of storm drainage system to reduce flow velocities to the point of discharge;
iv. Protect watercourses subject to accelerated erosion by improving cross sections and/or providing erosion-resistant lining; and
v. Upgrade or replace the receiving device structure, or watercourse such that it will receive and conduct the flow to a point where it is no longer subject to degradation from the increased rate of flow or increased velocity.
D. Exceptions . This rule shall not apply where it can be demonstrated to the Town that stormwater discharge velocities will not create an erosion problem in the receiving watercourse.

Plan Appeals
A. Except as provided in this Ordinance, the appeal of a disapproval or approval with modifications of a plan shall be governed by the provisions set forth in Article P Administrative Powers & Duties.
B. In the event that a plan is disapproved pursuant to Section (c)(1)(H) of this Ordinance, the applicant may appeal the Town’s disapproval of the plan directly to the Commission.
(6) Display of Plan Approval. A plan approval issued under this Article shall be prominently displayed until all construction is complete, all permanent sedimentation and erosion control measures are installed, and the site has been stabilized. A copy of the approved plan shall be kept on file at the job site. (7) Required Revisions. After approving a plan, if the Town, either upon review of such plan or on inspection of the job site, determines that a significant risk of accelerated erosion or off-site sedimentation exists, the Town shall require a revised plan. Pending the preparation of the revised plan, work shall cease or shall continue under conditions outlined by the appropriate authority. If following commencement of a land disturbing activity pursuant to an approved plan, the Town determines that the plan is inadequate to meet the requirements
