Contour lines showing the existing topography of the property in light grey and dashed lines, and any changes to those contour lines, shown in black ink and solid lines. Project items for construction are clearly shown to scale in in black ink and labeled. Limit of disturbance is marked and labeled showing the area in square feet and acres. Total area to be disturbed, paved, or built upon, land area to be occupied by the stormwater management facilities and the type of vegetation thereon, and details of the proposed plan to control discharge. Existing and proposed spot elevations at building corners, property corners, street gutter line, top of curb, top

the type of vegetation thereon, and details of the proposed plan to control discharge. Existing and proposed spot elevations at building corners, property corners, street gutter line, top of curb, top of depressed curb, top and bottom of wall and around structures. Finished floor, basement/cellar, and garage floor elevations. Soil Erosion Control Measures (such as silt fence, hay bales, filter fabric, construction access tracking pad, etc.) are marked and labeled. DO NOT TRENCH NEAR PROTECTED TREES.

Dept. of Engineering: June 2025 5 of 5 Location of roof leaders, roof drains, and the underground pipes that carry roof water runoff shown with material types, pipe sizes, and invert elevations labeled for each pipe. Stormwater Management System labeled with dimensions as well as invert elevations of drain pipes connected to the system. Construction details for the Stormwater Management System including dimensions and materials to be used (such as concrete tank, cast iron manhole cover, pipes (RCP, PVP) gravel, etc. Stormwater capacity calculations in accordance with § 25-29.3C and § 25-29.9 Details of all stormwater management facility design, during and after construction. Existing and proposed utility connections to the existing and proposed structures. Sump pump drain pipe location and discharge point. Footing drain location and discharge point. Stormwater Management System overflow, as well as cleanout Plans must accurately show existing natural and manmade features (lakes, ponds, etc.) on the site as well, within 25 feet of all property lines, including location of any easements. All trees larger than 10-inches in diameter, measured at 4-feet above ground level are shown and labeled with diameter and species. PROJECT THAT DOES NOT SHOW TREES WILL BE REJECTED. *Please refer to the Forester’s Office for a permit application and procedures (973-325-4015). Plans must accurately show the location of trees greater than 10 inches in diameter, measured at 4 feet above ground level, on the site as well as within 25 feet of all property lines, as well as all trees planned for removal. A separate landscaping/tree planting plan is required by the Township Forester. * Please refer to the Forester’s Office for requirements (973-325-4015). Plans must clearly identify all wetlands, riparian lands, steep slopes, flood plains and any associated buffers or transition areas. Location of floodplains, wetlands, and water bodies if application is directly within 300 feet of same. If NJDEP and/or HEPSCD permits are required, a copy of the approval by NJDEP and/or HEPSCD should be sent when available to Engineering for inclusion in the application. Plans must clearly show soil erosion and sediment control measures such as filter fence, construction vehicle tracking pads, storm sewer inlet protection, tree protection details, etc., including construction details for all

soil erosion and sediment control measures such as filter fence, construction vehicle tracking pads, storm sewer inlet protection, tree protection details, etc., including construction details for all proposed measures. Proposed improvements or work to be completed shall be highlighted, easily identifiable and accurately shown to scale. Plan scale shall not be less than 1 inch = 30 feet. Drainage provisions for stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces shall comply with provisions stated in § 25-29.3, § 29.7, & § 29.9. Construction details for drainage structures must include dimensions that are legible. Calculations shall be included on the plan.
