Only a grading plan is required when there is between 5000 and 350
square feet of new imperviousness, but no drainage study is required.
There are no requirements for less than 350 square feet.

feet, onsite detention is required with a 2 year historic release rate for
water quantity. Water quality treatment is normally required as

treatment is required. Parking lot detention for water quantity is
allowed as long as it is not deeper than one foot.
