=== Site Conditions ===
Complete definition of pre-development site conditions is essential prior to screening of
potential stormwater BMPs. The designer should prepare maps describing site
conditions, to ensure that all environmental features and functions that need
consideration in accordance with provincial, municipal and conservation authority
development regulations are identified. This includes watercourses and small drainage
features, floodplains, important recharge areas, steep slopes, wetlands, natural heritage
conservation areas and significant wildlife habitats. In addition, information regarding
native soil types, infiltration capacity and depth to water table must be determined.
