How to make a Stormwater Management Plan

Goal: To direct runoff to main road (and specify in the plan how will this be accomplished on site) 

It is recommended for pads to be packed at a slightly higher grade than the road (but at even grade with adjacent properties when sensible) and on a diagonal, slope the lot gradually to be at an even grade with the main road.

Some examples of stormwater management infrastructure include the following: 

Building Infrastructure

• Gutters

• Snow dams/avalanche guards
• Eavestrough
   

Ground Infrastructure

• Ditching
• Drain Tiles
• Culverts
• French Drains
• Drainage Swale

Note: Snow dams are required on all new builds
