3. EXISTING DRAINAGE CONDITIONS

The area to be analyzed consists of approximately 1.17 acres and is comprised of mostly grassy area, with a residential building, garages, and asphalt paving. Currently, the stormwater runoff generated by the existing site drains to the western and eastern portions of the site via overland flow. Due to commercial development that occurred since 1981 without application to the Pinelands Commission the subject site has been evaluated using an Historical Area Map from 1972 as depicted in the Existing Drainage Area Map included in the Appendix of this report.
