INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS

Prepare construction documents, and an ESC Plan/SWPPP5, in accordance with the Subdivision Regulations, Zoning Ordinance, Engineering Manuals, and Standard Drawings. Note that construction documents will be required for many of the permits/submittals listed above; coordinate all permits and submittals with the project schedule.

Pre -D esign

Submit construction documents, ESC Plan/ SWPPP, design calculations, Stormwater Management Plan, signed IDA, Compliance Statement, and other required documents to DOE in accordance with the Engineering Manuals.

(DOE) Conduct an administrative review of the construction documents within ten working days of receiving the plans to verify that all items have been submitted.6 Are the plans acceptable to DOE?

If site >= 1 acre, apply for KYR10 Permit from KDOW using online Notice of Intent (NOI) Application found on KDOW website.

Apply for LDP on LFUCG website. Include KYR10, ESC Plan (or SWPPP), and other applicable permits with the LDP Application.

(DOE) Conduct a pre-construction meeting (if required) and authorize installation of the Erosion and Sediment Control BMPs.

Install initial BMPs in accordance with ESC Plan/SWPPP.

(DWQ) Inspect BMPs and notify DOE when compliant.

(DOE) Issue LDP to Contractor.

Post LDP at project site and start construction.

Footnotes:

1. The project type may help determine if Planning and Zoning approvals are required prior to design. The project type will determine the level of water quality control requirements. If the project is an LFUCG Capital project, specific requirements of the project should be discussed with the project manager.

2. Refer to the Division of Planning for detailed information.

3. Public Infrastructure is defined as roads, sanitary sewer facilities, and stormwater facilities designated as public infrastructure by the Department of Planning, Preservation, and Development. An Infrastructure Development Agreement (IDA) will be required for projects that contain public infrastructure. Refer to the Procedures Manual for detailed information.

4. The Developer/Engineer is responsible for ensuring all required permits are obtained prior to construction. This list is not all inclusive. It contains permits or submittals that are typically encountered during development projects in Lexington–Fayette County.

5. The Engineer shall prepare an ESC Plan or SWPPP, based on the project type, in accordance with LFUCG Code of Ordinances Ch. 16 Article X Div. 5.

6. DOE performs a summary review to ensure all items have been submitted. The Developer/Engineer shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy of the drawings, calculations, and reports.

7. Refer to LFUCG Code of Ordinances Ch. 16 Article X Div. 5 for specific requirements. Note the Contractor may use the ESC Plan/SWPPP prepared by the Engineer; however, the Contractor assumes full responsibility for the plan once submitted.

8. Only required for public infrastructure.

Depending on project type & area of disturbance, prepare ESC Plan or SWPPP to include in construction permit applications.7

(DOE) Accept plans. Send acceptance letter to applicable permitting agencies.

Make necessary revisions, include additional information as requested by DOE, and resubmit.

YES

NO

(DOE) Review LDP submittal.6 Is application ready to accept?

Revise and resubmit.

Forester

Maintain compliance with requirements of the LDP, KYR10 permit, Engineering Manuals, and all local, state, and federal regulations during construction, including sufficient inspections and documentation of work.

(DWQ) Conduct compliance inspections of the ESC BMPs and issue NOVs to achieve compliance. Cases may be referred to DES for escalating enforcement if deficiencies are not corrected through NOV process.

Conduct inspections in accordance with the Engineering Manuals. Submit inspection reports to DOE in accordance with the Engineering Manuals.

(DOE) Conduct infrastructure inspections and issue NOVs to achieve compliance. Cases may be referred to DES for escalating enforcement if deficiencies are not corrected through NOV process.

Maintain ESCs until the site is stabilized in accordance with the LDP.

Once site is stabilized, submit online NOT forms to DOE and KDOW, and remove ESCs or convert them to permanent stormwater controls as designed.

At the end of construction, submit the following to DOE:

• Letter of substantial completion and punch list

• Test results and inspection reports

• Record drawings

• Engineer’s certification of sediment removal & design volume

• Commercial Agreement to Maintain Stormwater Controls

• Video of the storm sewers, sanitary sewers and table of laterals8

• Performance/Warranty Surety with cost estimate8

Building Permit and Certificate of Occupancy

• For projects that involve recording a plat, DOE will sign the plat only after receiving the above information. DBI will issue Building Permits once the plat is signed.

• For projects that do not involve a plat, DBI will issue a Certificate of Occupancy only after DOE receives the above information.

START

Determine project type:1 New Development (Commercial/Residential), Demolition, or

Redevelopment.

Determine whether or not the project requires a certified Development Plan or

Preliminary Subdivision Plan.2

Determine whether or not the project contains public infrastructure.3
