Sec. 32-130. Contents of Grading/Site Development Plan

Additional sets of prints shall be submitted in quantity as determined by the Director to coordinate the applied for permit issuance with collateral activities of all other County agencies. The paper size for plans shall not exceed 30" × 42".

Date, name, address and telephone number of preparer of plans, or each discipline and owner of site.

Certification from preparer of the plan, or each discipline (surveying existing conditions, proposed surface grade establishments, load-bearing fills and slope stabilities, storm drainage, retaining walls, etc.), as might have participated in the finished form, attesting to the completeness and correctness of existing conditions as shown and to the compliance of all proposed grading and other work with all of the requirements of this Subtitle, except for specific waivers or modifications as listed.

A clear and definite delineation of limits of disturbance and areas where vegetation is to remain, in conformance with the approved Tree Conservation Plan if one is required, along with a calculation of the disturbed area in square feet of the total site minus that area to remain undisturbed and currently having an effective erosion resistant ground cover or surface.

For all applications, other than those for surplus earth disposed on sites ten (10) acres or larger existing topography, proposed grading and site development with contours at one (1) or two (2) foot intervals, and drawn at a scale no smaller than one (1) inch equals fifty (50) feet of the entire site, plus a minimum twenty (20) foot adjacent peripheral strip; or as might otherwise clearly reflect existing conditions and proposed grading and other work, provided that such other interval and scale has the Director's approval in advance of plan preparation.

For surplus earth disposal on sites ten (10) acres or larger existing topography and proposed grading and site development for restoration to a condition meeting the minimum design and construction standards provided for elsewhere herein, with contours at no greater than five (5) foot intervals and drawn at a scale no smaller than one (1) inch equals two hundred (200) feet; provided, however, that for work to be performed within fifty (50) feet of any property line plans shall conform to the requirements of Paragraph (5) of this Subsection.

A clear and definite delineation with dimensions for sizing and locating areas for each class of fill proposed.

Established, or in the case of new subdivisions being processed, approved tentative street grades (elevations), including Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission and/or Department of Public Works and Transportation file number(s).

Basement, first floor and ground elevations at corners of all buildings, spot elevations at critical points on the proposed grading plan, and on all other structures; and profiles and/or cross sections showing the proposed and finished grade of driveways, access lanes, walks, watercourses, as needed to demonstrate compliance with this Subtitle.

Size, location and construction details of all proposed site development.

Drainage area map and study including computations covering the entire area tributary to the site, and showing calculated runoff to all structures, lines and open channel facilities.

A clear and definite delineation of the proposed subdivision of the site for the purpose of staging, to minimize time of exposure to erosive actions, along with the construction of the sequential order for the working of each, and a statement of their respective areas, minus the area therein to remain undisturbed, in square feet.

Soil type as shown on the USDA Soil Survey of Prince George's County or soil type as determined by a professional engineer at the location of each proposed residential building. For each proposed residential building lot on which a basement is proposed to be constructed, the hydrological characteristics of the lot to a depth of six (6) feet below the finished floor level of the basement and the depth of the closest aquifer to the proposed final grade of the basement.

Time required for performing and completing all work on the site, with anticipated starting and completion dates for each subdivision thereof, as staged to minimize exposure to erosive actions.

An approved Type 2 Tree Conservation Plan or valid letter of exemption from the Woodland Conservation Ordinance in conformance with the provisions of Subtitle 25.
