4.2.3.1 PAVING PARKING AREAS AND ROADSAlternate Names: Pavement Practices, Impervious PavingDESCRIPTIONAll roads, driveways, and parking lots proposed for year-round use shall bepaved with a hard plowable surface. A variety of materials may be used to paveincluding asphalt, concrete, paving stones, and pervious paving materials.Paved surfaces shall be designed and located to preserve natural vegetation,prevent future soil disturbance, maintain relatively clean stormwater runoff,convey stormwater to infiltration systems, blend with the natural landforms,protect against erosion, and cause the least adverse impacts on water quality,traffic, air quality, transportation, and safety.Limited grading to achieve sheet flow supports achievement of on-sitetreatment and infiltration with minimal storm-drain infrastructure. Paving isbest incorporated into projects during the design and engineering phases.Stormwater runoff generated from paved surfaces shall be contained andinfiltrated on-site, unless specifically authorized by the regulatory orpermitting agency.
