The storm water and erosion control measures must also ensure that storm water is released from the maneuver area at the same pre-construction rate or at the legally allowable rate if less than 100%. Design standards found in Rainwater and Land Development - Ohio's Standards for Storm water Management, Land Development and Urban Stream Protection (Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Third Edition, 2006) will be followed unless more stringent design standards are necessary to protect surface water and manage storm water runoff.
