Chapter 17 Phase II Stormwater Appendix B
Appendix B-101 TITLE
This ordinance shall be officially known as “The Phase II Stormwater Ordinance
Appendix.” It is referred to herein as “this ordinance.”
(Ordinance 36-2007)
Appendix B-102 AUTHORITY
The Maiden Town Council is authorized to adopt this ordinance pursuant to North
Carolina law, including but not limited to Article 14, Section 5 of the Constitution of
North Carolina; Municipal charter of the Town of Maiden; North Carolina General
Statutes 143-214.7 and rules promulgated by the Environmental Management
Commission there under; Session Law 2004-163; Chapter 160A, §§ 174, 185 . [; as well
as Chapter 113A, Article 4 (Sedimentation Pollution Control)][; Article 21, Part 6
(Floodway Regulation) [; Chapter 160A, Article 19 (Planning and Regulation of
Development), ; Chapter 153A, Article 18].
Appendix B-103 FINDINGS
It is hereby determined that:
Development and redevelopment alter the hydrologic response of local watersheds and
increases stormwater runoff rates and volumes, flooding, soil erosion, stream channel
erosion, nonpoint and point source pollution, and sediment transport and deposition, as
well as reducing groundwater recharge;
These changes in stormwater runoff contribute to increased quantities of water-borne
pollutants and alterations in hydrology which are harmful to public health and safety as
well as to the natural environment; and
These effects can be managed and minimized by applying proper design and well -
planned controls to manage stormwater runoff from development sites.
Further, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972 (“Clean Water Act”) and
federal Phase II Stormwater Rules promulgated under it, as well as rules of the North
Carolina Environmental Management Commission promulgated in response to federal
Phase II requirements, compel certain urbanized areas, including this jurisdiction, to
adopt the minimum stormwater controls such as those included in this ordinance.
Therefore, the Maiden Town Council establishes this set of water quality and quantity
regulations to meet the requirements of state and federal law regarding control of
stormwater runoff and discharge.

Appendix B-104 PURPOSE
(A) General
The purpose of this ordinance is to protect, maintain and enhance the public
health, safety, environment and general welfare by establishing minimum
requirements and procedures to control the adverse effects of increased post-
development stormwater runoff and nonpoint and point source pollution
associated with new development and redevelopment [as well as illicit discharges
into municipal stormwater systems]. It has been determined that proper
management of construction-related and post-development stormwater runoff will
minimize damage to public and private property and infrastructure, safeguard the
public health, safety, and general welfare, and protect water and aquatic
resources.
(B) Specific
This ordinance seeks to meet its general purpose through the following specific
objectives and means:
1. Establishing decision-making processes for development that protect the
integrity of watersheds and preserve the health of water resources;
2. Requiring that new development and redevelopment maintain the pre-
development hydrologic response in their post-development state as nearly as
practicable for the applicable design storm in order to reduce flooding,
streambank erosion, nonpoint and point source pollution and increases in
stream temperature, and to maintain the integrity of stream channels and
aquatic habitats;
3. Establishing minimum post-development stormwater management
standards and design criteria for the regulation and control of stormwater
runoff quantity and quality;
4. Establishing design and review criteria for the construction, function, and
use of structural stormwater BMPs that may be used to meet the minimum
post-development stormwater management standards;
5. Encouraging the use of better management and site design practices, such
as the use of vegetated conveyances for stormwater and the preservation of
greenspace and other conservation areas to the maximum extent practicable;
6. Establishing provisions for the long-term responsibility for and
maintenance of structural and nonstructural stormwater BMPs to ensure that
they continue to function as designed, are maintained appropriately, and pose
no threat to public safety;
Town of Maiden Unified Development Ordinance
279 of 308

7. Establishing administrative procedures for the submission, review, approval
and disapproval of stormwater management plans, for the inspection of
approved projects, and to assure appropriate long-term maintenance.
8. Controlling illicit discharges into the municipal separate stormwater
system.
9. Controlling erosion and sedimentation from construction activities in
compliance with existing controls provided though Catawba County erosion
control.
10. Assigning responsibility and processes for approving the creation and
maintenance of adequate drainage and flood damage prevention.

plan for the post-construction stormwater management system to be utilized in the
proposed development project. This consultation meeting should take place at the
time of the preliminary plan of subdivision or other early step in the development
process. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the post-construction
stormwater management measures necessary for the proposed project, as well as
to discuss and assess constraints, opportunities and potential approaches to
stormwater management designs before formal site design engineering is
commenced. Local watershed plans, the Town of Maiden code of ordinances, and
other relevant resource protection plans may be consulted in the discussion of the
concept plan.
To accomplish this goal the following information should be included in the
concept plan, which should be submitted in advance of the meeting:
(1) Existing Conditions / Proposed Site Plans
Existing conditions and proposed site layout sketch plans, which illustrate at a
minimum: existing and proposed topography; perennial and intermittent
streams; mapping of predominant soils from soil surveys (when available);
boundaries of existing predominant vegetation and proposed limits of clearing
and grading; and location of existing and proposed roads, buildings, parking
areas and other impervious surfaces.
(2) Natural Resources Inventory
A written or graphic inventory of the natural resources at the site and
surrounding area as it exists prior to the commencement of the project. This
description should include a discussion of soil conditions, forest cover,
geologic features, topography, wetlands, and native vegetative areas on the
site, as well as the location and boundaries of other natural feature protection
and conservation areas such as lakes, ponds, floodplains, stream buffers and
other setbacks (e.g., drinking water well setbacks, septic setbacks, etc.).
Particular attention should be paid to environmentally sensitive features that
provide particular opportunities or constraints for development.
(3) Stormwater Management System Concept Plan
A written or graphic concept plan of the proposed post-development
stormwater management system including: preliminary selection and location
of proposed structural stormwater controls; low impact design elements;
location of existing and proposed conveyance systems such as grass channels,
swales, and storm drains; flow paths; location of floodplain/floodway limits;
relationship of site to upstream and downstream properties and drainages; and
preliminary location of proposed stream channel modifications, such as bridge
or culvert crossings.

with the approved stormwater management plans and designs, and shall submit
actual “as built” plans for all stormwater management facilities or practices after
final construction is completed.
The plans shall show the final design specifications for all stormwater
management facilities and practices and the field location, size, depth, and planted
vegetation of all measures, controls, and devices, as installed. The designer of the
stormwater management measures and plans shall certify, under seal, that the as-
built stormwater measures, controls, and devices are in compliance with the
approved stormwater management plans and designs and with the requirements of
this ordinance. A final inspection and approval by the Stormwater Administrator
shall occur before the release of any performance securities.
(D) Other Permits
No certificate of compliance or occupancy shall be issued by the Planning
Department without final as-built plans and a final inspection and approval by the
Stormwater Administrator, except where multiple units are served by the

structural BMP pursuant to this ordinance, and prior to issuance of any permit for
development or redevelopment requiring a structural BMP pursuant to this
ordinance, the applicant or owner of the site must execute an operation and
agreement that shall be binding on all subsequent owners of the site, portions of
the site, and lots or parcels served by the structural BMP. Until the transference of
all property, sites, or lots served by the structural BMP, the original owner or
applicant shall have primary responsibility for carrying out the provisions of the
maintenance agreement.
Prior to the conveyance or transfer of any lot or building site to be served by a
structural BMP pursuant to this ordinance, and prior to issuance of any permit for
development or redevelopment requiring a structural BMP pursuant to this
ordinance, the applicant or owner of the site must execute an operation and
maintenance agreement that shall be binding on all subsequent owners of the site,
portions of the site, and lots or parcels served by the structural BMP. Until the
transference of all property, sites, or lots served by the structural BMP, the
original owner or applicant shall have primary responsibility for carrying out the
provisions of the maintenance agreement.
The operation and maintenance agreement shall require the owner or owners to
maintain, repair and, if necessary, reconstruct the structural BMP, and shall state
the terms, conditions, and schedule of maintenance for the structural BMP. In
addition, it shall grant to Town of Maiden a right of entry in the event that the
