Create your own stormwater management plan?

[Nick Heil]

Just curious if anyone has any experience creating their own storm water management plans?

I own a 10.55 acre farm field in PA where I'm looking to put down a large gravel pad. I will use the pad to park portable storage units to rent. In this town, if you want to put a gravel pad down that exceeds 5,000 square feet you need a storm water management plan. Luckily, the field is already quite flat.

I'm having a survey done on the property, so I will have that to work from. Engineering quotes were outrageous for creating the plan and if I understand correctly I don't think they are rocket science.

The founder of Spanx was able to figure out a way to write her own patents, so I'm hoping I can figure out how to create my own storm water management plan for putting down a basic gravel pad.

Thanks everyone!
