The site plan required in Article
V shall be prepared by a licensed land surveyor or professional engineer or architect registered in the State of Connecticut. A master copy of the plans shall contain the signatures and seals of the creators of the plans. The plan shall be drawn to a scale which is adequate to show the information required by the Commission to evaluate the proposed activity and its environmental impact.
A. The site plan should contain but is not limited to the following:
(1) The boundary lines, dimensions, and area of the property;
(2) The locations of all wetlands and watercourses both on the property
and within 200 feet of the boundaries. The seventy-five-foot residential
and one-hundred-fifty-foot commercial regulated areas outside the
wetlands or watercourse shall be clearly indicated. The master copy
of the plans shall contain the signature and seal, if applicable,
of the soil scientist who delineated the wetlands or watercourse;
(3) Elevations at one-foot contour intervals in all areas of the property
that are within 100 feet of a wetland or watercourse; elevations at
five-foot contour intervals from 100 feet to 500 feet from the wetland
or watercourse; elevations for the remainder of the property to be
at a contour interval sufficient to accurately depict the topography
of the site. If deposition or removal of ground materials is proposed,
resulting elevations shall be shown by one-foot contour intervals;
(4) The location and description of all existing structures, roads, drainage
features, and other man-made objects;
(5) The locations and descriptions of all proposed activities;
(6) A documented description of the soils, including the location of
any soil borings or test holes; the location and results of percolation
tests. Soil types shall be described in accordance with categories
established by the United States Soil Conservation Service;
(7) A description of the vegetative cover, including dominant botanical
species and any rare species;
(8) Quantities and descriptions of materials to be removed or deposited
in terms of volume, composition, and the possibility of erosion or
leaching from deposited materials;
(9) Existing and proposed depths of water and high water levels for all
inundated areas;
(10)
Erosion and sedimentation control measures that will be used
throughout the project; and
(11)
If pollution is expected or proposed, the existing and anticipated
alkalinity/acidity level, turbidity, bacterial count, flows, odor,
color, temperature, and taste of affected water both above and below
the ground surfaces.
