best management practices for source control, pollution prevention, site design, and low

design for controlling urban runoff must first evaluate infiltration, then harvest and water
re -use, then evapotranspiration and only bio- treatment if the other three are not feasible.
Submittal and subsequent approval of the Preliminary Water Quality Management Plan
does not guarantee approval of the Final Water Quality Management Plan. Should the
final calculations and submittals not meet the required thresholds necessary to meet the
obligations of the City under the NPDES Permit for development and its incorporated
documents such as the Drainage Area Management Plan and Technical Guidance
Document, alterations to the site and the site plan may be required as prescribed by the
Director of Community Development to the WQMP. The aforementioned documents are
available for download at http:// www.ocwatersheds.com/WQMP.aspx. Any significant
alteration to the site plan due to the Final WQMP may then require approval of the
Council of the revised site plan. Additionally, as required under the NPDES Permit,
attention is directed that the WQMP must identify a responsible party and implement
funding sources for maintaining any treatment controls as required as part of the
development and must ensure that appropriate easements and ownerships are properly
recorded in public records and access is made available for inspection of said devices.
