(1) In reviewing applications for a site development plan in the floodway or flood fringe, the Commission will consider such issues as:

(a) Danger to life and property due to increased flood height or velocity;
(b) Alteration or obstruction of the flood flow or the flood storage;
(c) Risk to environmental systems;
(d) Prevention of potential for hazardous debris;
(e) Extraordinary public risk or expense; and
(f) The effects of a proposed use in light of an equal degree of encroachment extending for a significant reach on both sides of the floodway.
 

(2) In acting upon an application for a site development plan in the flood fringe, the Commission will consider all criteria set forth in § 470-901.

(3) No watercourse located within the SFHA shall be altered or relocated, or application proposing the same approved, without the securing of all appropriate permits (which appropriate permits include an inland waters diversion permit) from the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection by the applicant for the same. The applicant must assure that maintenance is provided within the altered or relocated portion of said watercourse so that the flood-carrying capacity is not diminished. The applicant shall also be responsible for providing, and documenting, notifications to adjacent communities and the Federal Emergency Management Agency regarding the same.

Post development requirements:

(1) Where any result of construction or other development activity is a noncompliance with any provision of these regulations, the provisions of § 470-602L of these regulations shall apply; and notwithstanding the same:

(2) Where any result of construction or other development activity is a noncompliance with any provision of these regulations, the same shall be appropriately corrected by the applicant in a timely manner, unless a variance for the same is appropriately acquired in accordance with the applicable provisions of these regulations.

(3) Where such noncompliance is significant, the Floodplain Administrator may require that any applicable task, effort, and/or submittal associated with the original permit application be revised, re-performed, recreated, or otherwise corrected or adjusted accordingly; and the Floodplain Administrator may require that plans, descriptions, and/or other information for the same be submitted, and approved, which approval, at the discretion of the Floodplain Administrator, may be administrative or through the Commission, prior to commencement of any portion of any non-temporary corrective work or actions contemplated. In association with any of the same, the Floodplain Administrator may engage the consultation of the Commission's Engineer, at the sole pre-paid expense of the applicant, for evaluation or review.

(4) Notwithstanding any such required approval and any time necessary to acquire and effectuate the same, the applicant is and remains responsible for any such noncompliance and any adverse effects, damages, and/or liabilities that result from the same. The applicant shall take whatever interim measures are necessary to prevent damage or other adverse effects as a result of any such noncompliance; and is responsible to give proper notice and information of any such interim measures to the Commission's Engineer prior to commencing the same, and to keep the Commission's Engineer properly informed of the status of the same until such time as any such issue has been satisfactorily resolved.
