Conditional Direct Discharge District
|
In District C, development sites that can discharge directly
to the Wissahickon Creek Main Channel and to the Schuylkill River
main channel without use of the infrastructure of the City of Philadelphia
may do so without control of proposed conditions peak rate of runoff.
| |||
Projects that are required to obtain a NPDES permit for stormwater
discharges associated with construction activities are required to
show no increase in peaks from existing conditions.
| |||
When adequate capacity in the downstream system does not exist
and will not be provided through improvements, the proposed conditions
peak rate of runoff must be controlled to the predevelopment conditions
peak rate as required in District A provisions for the specified design
storms. The predevelopment condition for new development is the existing
condition. For redevelopment purposes in Philadelphia County, the
predevelopment condition shall be determined according to the procedures
found in the Philadelphia Stormwater Guidance Manual.
