I. DESIGN STANDARDS
This permit is effective only with respect to the nature and volume of stormwater
described in the application and other supporting data.
2. This stormwater system has been approved for the management of stormwater
runoff as described in Section 1.7 of this permit. The final built -out condition of

square feet of impervious area. The current condition of this stormwater system
has been designed to handle the runoff from 960,509 square feet of impervious
area.

4. The tract will be limited to the amount of impervious area indicated in Section 1.7
of this permit, and per approved plans. The impervious area for the future
development within the current drainage area and condition of this stormwater
system is limited to 98,194 square feet. Future impervious area within the final
built -out drainage area and condition of this stormwater system is limited to an
additional660,780 square feet or a total of 853,370 square feet.
